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 NO FROST FREEZER • The NO FROST freezer will defrost automatically. Occasional frost that may appear on the walls will disappear automatically. • Build-up of ice or frost in the freezer compartment can be a result of abnormal use of appliance (door opened too frequently and/or too long, door not properly closed etc.). In this case, unplug the appliance, remove the food from the freezer and protect it from defrosting. Clean and dry the freezer interior. Before returning the frozen food into the freezer, switch on the appliance and select the desired setting. 30 721903
