Defrosting the refrigerator
The refrigerator does not have to be defrosted
but it does have to be cleaned.
The refrigerator's evaporator is fixed into the
rear wall, which is why the rear walls can be-
come covered with frost. Whenever the com-
pressor is not working, frost can melt. The
resulting water is led through a hose system
to the basin on the compressor, where it then
evaporates due to the heat generated. When
setting the temperature controller, avoid per-
manent frost without a defrost phase.
Make sure that the drain gully and the drain
opening are not blocked so that the water
produced in the refrigerator can always flow
off unobstructed.
Tips for Energy Saving
• For the installation of the appliance, choose
a cool, dry and well-aired room.
• Protect the appliance from direct insolation.
It should not be installed near heat sources
(stove, heater etc.). If this cannot be avoid-
ed, some sort of isolation between heat
source and appliance has to be used.
• Don't cover the ventilation openings and
grid. Provide enough circulation of air on
the backside of the appliance.
• Let warm food cool down before you store
it in the fridge.
• Do not leave the door open too long when
withdrawing or putting food inside. Other-
wise, the formation of ice in the interior will
be accelerated.
• Do not set the temperature lower than
necessary. More details on temperature
settings can be taken from the chapter
'Operating elements'.
Operation Noises
There might be some typical operation noises
when the appliance is turned on. These are:
• Noise of the electric
motor is arising from
the working compressor.
When the compressor
starts to operate, then
the noises get slightly
louder for a short time.
• Noises in the tubes of the circulation of the
refrigerant.
Disposal
Appliances that are marked with this
symbol have to be disposed of
separately from household rubbish.
These appliances contain valuable resources
that can be recycled. A correct waste disposal
protects the environment and the health of
those around you. To get informed about it,
either defer to your municipal administration
or the retailer.
• Pull the mains plug out of the socket and
disconnect it from the appliance before
getting rid of it.
• The cooling medium Isobutane
(R600a) and the propellant in the
isolation Cyclopentane (C 5 H 10 )
are inflammable substances,
thus, need to be appropriately disposed of.
• Make sure the tubes of the cooling circuit
don't get damaged before the proper
disposal.
