Defrosting the freezer
compartment*
The freezer compartment does not defrost
automatically, as the frozen food must not
thaw. A layer of hoarfrost in the freezer
compartment will impair refrigeration of
the frozen food and increase power
consumption. Remove the layer
of hoarfrost regularly.
Attention: Do not scrape off hoarfrost or
ice with a knife or pointed object. You
could damage the refrigerant tubing.
Leaking refrigerant may ignite or cause
eye injuries.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the frozen food and store
temporarily in a cool location.
2. Pull out the mains plug or remove
the fuse.
3. Leave the appliance door open.
Wipe up condensation with a cloth
or sponge.
4. Wipe the freezer compartment dry.
5. Switch on the appliance again.
6. Put the frozen food back in the freezer
compartment.

Defrosting aids
You can accelerate the defrosting
process by placing a pan of hot water
in the freezer compartment.
Attention: place the pan on a
heat insulating base!
Warning: Never use electrical appliances
or naked flames to defrost the freezer
compartment, e.g. heaters, steam
cleaners, candles, kerosene lamps, etc.
Caution when using defrosting sprays:
S Defrosting sprays may form explosive
gases.
S Defrosting sprays may contain solvents
or propellants which attack plastic.
S Defrosting sprays may be a health
hazard.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Refrigeratorcompartment
defrosts fully automatically
While the refrigerating unit is running,
beads of condensation or hoarfrost
form at the back of the refrigerator
compartment. This is quite normal.
It is not necessary to wipe off the
condensation or frost. The rear panel
defrosts automatically. The condensation
runs into the condensation channel
Fig. 3 and is conveyed to the refrigerating
unit where it evaporates.
Note: Keep the condensation channel
and drain hole Fig. 3 clean so that the
condensation can drain.
