Defrosting The Appliance - ETNA KVV754 Bedienungsanleitung

DEFROSTING THE APPLIANCE

AUTOMATIC REFRIGERATOR DEFROSTING
Refrigerator does not need defrosting because the ice on the back interior wall is thawed
automatically.
Any accumulated ice will melt when the compressor unit is inactive. Drops will flow through an
opening in the refrigerator rear wall into a tray fitted above the compressor, from where they
will evaporate.
If an excessive layer of ice is formed on the rear wall of refrigerator interior (3-5 mm),
switch off the appliance and defrost the appliance manually.
DEFROSTING A CONVENTIONAL FREEZER
• Defrost the freezer when an approximately 3-5 milimeter layer of of frost or ice has built
up.
• 24 hours before defrosting, activate the super freeze function to additionally cool the
food (see section »Freezing Process«).
After this period, remove the food from the freezer and protect them from defrosting.
• Switch off the appliance (see chapter Switching the appliance on/off ) and unplug the
power cord.
• Do not use any defrosting sprays as they may melt the plastic parts or harm your health.
• Do not use a knife or any other sharp object to remove the frost, because you may
damage a pipe of the cooling system.
• To speed up the defrosting process, place a pot of hot water on the glass shelf.
• Clean and dry the appliance interior (see Cleaning the Appliance).
• Before placing the food into the freezer, switch on the appliance and rotate the A dial
back to the desired setting.
