Defrosting
While in operation the **-star compartment becomes
progressively covered with frost.
This frost, which acts as an insulator and thus prevents
the cold from reaching the food should be removed
whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 1/4”.
To carry out complete defrosting proceed as follows:
1. Push the conveyor completely in.
2. Place a tray on the upper shelf of the refrigerator
under the drain hole of the conveyor.
3. Remove any food from inside the **-star
compartment, wrap it in several sheets of
newspaper and store in a cool dry place.
4. Turn the thermostat knob on position << 0 >>. To
accelerate defrosting, place a bow of hot water
inside the compartment (with a piece of cardboard
underneath the bowl as protection).
5. When defrosting is completed, dry thoroughly and
remove the water collected in the tray.
Turn the thermostat knob on a medium position to
restart the appliance.
After letting the appliance run for at least half an
hour replace the previously removed food into the
** -star compartment.
When defrosting it is not necessary to remove the
foods from the inner door and the refrigerator
compartment.
Important
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs during
defrosting may shorten their storage life.
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from
the evaporator as youcould damage it beyond
repair.
Changing the Light Bulb
Should the light fail to work you can change it as
below:
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Remove the lamp cover retaining screws, then take
the lamp cover off in the direction of the arrow and the
bulb can be changed. (Type of the bulb: 230 V, 15 W,
E 14 thread)
After changing the bulb replace the lamp cover, and
retaining screws and reconnect the appliance to the
electricity supply.
When the appliance is not in use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of the
food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to
prevent unpleasant smells.
