[. . . ] INSTRUCTION BOOK REFRIGERATOR RL 1580 (TT 160 C) 1278842 A/F/26. (00. ) Before installing and using the appliance read this user's instruction book carefully. It contains safety precautions, hints, information and ideas. If the refrigerator is used in compliance with the instructions written, it will operate properly and provide you with greatest satisfaction. [. . . ] Do not put hot food into the refrigerator. Allow it to reach room temperature naturally. In this way unnecessary frost building up can be avoided. Foods can take over odours from each other. So it is essential to put foods in closed dishes or wrap them in cellophane, aluminium foil, grease-proof paper or cling film before placing them into the refrigerator. This way foods will keep their moisture e. g. vegetables will not dry out after some days. How to use the cooling compartment Maintenance Defrosting Bleeding part of the moisture of cooling chamber in form of frost and ice goes with the operation of the refrigerator. Thick frost and ice has an insulating effect, so it reduces cooling efficiency as the temperature increases and it needs more energy. At this type of appliance defrosting cooling compartment 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 temperature of the cooling compartment increases and defrosting occurs. After cleaning plug the appliance to the mains socket. Dust and dirt collected on the back of the refrigerator, condenser is recommended to be removed and clean the evaporative tray on top of the compressor once or twice a year.
