Defrost water from the cooling plate runs out of the drain and onto a tray on the motor compressor where it is evaporated. Droplets of water on the cooling plate during defrosting are quite normal and will freeze on the plate afterwards. In the freezer compartment, frost accumulates on the refrigerated shelves during normal operation. Defrosting should be carried out when the frost build up is approximately 6mm (¼") thick. To Defrost the Freezer 1. Wrap any food in layers of newspaper or blankets. Switch the appliance off at the wall socket and remove the plug. Place a suitable container under the spout to collect the defrost water. After defrosting, clean and dry the interior. Switch the appliance on and replace any frozen food. Defrosting can be speeded up by putting bowls of hot (not boiling) water in the freezer and loosening the frost with a suitable plastic scraper. If the temperature of frozen food is allowed to rise during defrosting, its storage life may be shortened. When the Appliance is Not in Use When the appliance is not in use for long periods, disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of the food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells. 12 WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG BEFORE contacting your local service force centre, check the following points: Symptom No power to the appliance Solution Check there is power at the socket.
