Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the compressor must run continuously to maintain the low temperature in the appliance. The fridge will not be able to defrost since automatic defrosting of the fridge is only possible when the compressor is not running (see also "Defrosting" section). The result is the build up of a thick layer of frost on the fridge rear wall. AEG62 13 If this happens, turn the thermostat knob back to a warmer setting (position "3" to "4").

The warmth will cause increased ice formation and increase the power consumption. · Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufacturer. · Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time. All foods must be packed into airtight packages or containers prior to 16 freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods occurs.
