regular intervals for more or less time - during this cooling is
interrupted - the temperature of the cooling plate goes above
0 °C due to interior heating load of the compartment, so
defrosting occurs. When the surface temperature of the cool-
ing plate has reached +3 - +4 °C the thermostatic control
restarts operation of the system.
Melting water flows through defrost water outlet leaded
through the back into the evaporative tray maintained on the
top of compressor and evaporates due to its warmth.
Check and clean the outlet of melting water
coming during defrosting regularly. If it is
clogged the melting water gathered can cause
earlier failure as it can go to the insulating of the appli-
ance.
Clean the melting water outlet with the supplied pipe scraper
that can be seen in the figure. The pipe scraper has to be
stored in the outlet.
The most typical case of clogging up in the melting water out-
let when you put food wrapped in some paper into the appli-
ance and this paper contacts back plate of the refrigerator and
freezes to it. If you remove the food right at this moment the
paper will tear and it can cause clogging up in the outlet by get-
ting into it. So you are asked to be careful - because of the
above - when placing foods wrapped in paper into the appli-
ance.
In case of increased demand e.g. during heatwaves,
the refrigerator temporarily happens to operate con-
stantly - during this the automatic defrosting is inef-
fective.
Remaining small ice and frost stains on back plate of the refrig-
erator after defrosting period is not abnormal.
The freezer can not be equipped with automatic defrosting set
since the deep-frozen and frozen foods do not endure melting
temperature.
When small frost and ice occurs scrape off and remove frost
and ice coating with the supplied plastic scraper.
The tray in figure is not a piece of accessories to the appli-
ance!
When ice coating is so thick that it cannot be removed with the
plastic scraper, the cooling plates have to be defrosted.
Frequency of defrosting depends on usage (generally 2-3
times a year).
Take the frozen foods out of the appliance, and put them into
a basket lined with paper or cloth. Store them in a possibly
cool place or replace them into another refrigerator.
Pull out the mains plug from the mains socket, so both parts
of the appliance are out of operation.
Open the doors of both parts of the appliance and clean the
refrigerator according to 'Regular cleaning'. Maintain and
clean the freezer as following:
Sweep off the melting water with a cloth or sponge in direction
of sides of the cooling plates. The melting water swept down
gathers in the outlet channel practically formed in the bottom
of the appliance and can be removed according to figure.
Put an adequately high bowl or dish under the outlet.
The bowl in figure is not a piece of accessories to the appli-
ance!
Wipe the surfaces after defrosting and leading the water out.
Put the mains plug into the mains socket and put foods taken
out back to their places.
It is recommended to operate the appliance at the highest
position of the thermostatic control for some hours so that it
can reach the sufficient storing temperature as soon as possi-
ble.
Regular cleaning
It is recommended to wash the inside of the refrigerator
in 3-4 weeks time using lukewarm water then wipe it (it is
practical to clean the inside of the freezer and defrost it at
a time).
Household cleaner or soap must not be used.
After breaking the circuit wash the appliance with lukewarm
water then wipe it. Clean the door gasket with clean water.
After cleaning apply voltage to the appliance.
It is recommended to remove the dust and dirt collected on
the back of the refrigerator and the condenser and to clean
the evaporative tray on top of the compressor once or twice
a year.
