The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. [. . . ] 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 appliance!When ice coating is so thick that it cannot be removed with the plastic scraper, the cooling plate has to be defrosted. Frequency of defrosting depends on usage (generally 2-3 times a year). Maintenance Defrosting Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chambers in form of frost and ice goes with the operation of the appliance. Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency as the temperature increases in the cooling chambers and they need more energy. At this type of appliance defrosting the cooling plate of the refrigerator is automatic without any external intervention. The thermostatic control interrupts the operation of compressor at 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 cooling 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 - a label inside the appliance warns you for this. If it is clogged the melting water gathered can cause earlier failure as it can go to the insulating of the appliance. Take the frozen foods out of the appliance, and put them into a basket lined with paper or cloth. The lack of light does not influence operation of the refrigerator. 50 GB Problem Possible cause It is too warm in the refrig- Thermostatic control can be set wrongly. If products are not cold enough or placed wrongly. The door does not close tightly or it is not shut properly. Thermostatic control can be set wrongly. The door does not close tightly or it is not shut properly. Products in big quantity to be frozen were put in. Products to be frozen are placed too closely to each other. During automatic defrosting frost melts on the back plate. The outlet of the chamber can be clogged up. Products placed in can prevent water from flowing into the collector. The melting water outlet flows not into the evaporative tray above the compressor. [. . . ] So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be brought to our attention immediately. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer providing proof of purchase showing the purchase and/or delivery date. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous ceramic), synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of inappropriate use. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do not affect the value or the overall reliability of the appliance. [. . . ]
