Maintenance and Cleaning Automatic Defrosting of the Appliance

Switch Off the Appliance When Not In Use

There is no need to defrost the cooler , because ice depositing on the inner back wall is defrosted automatically. Ice build-up on the inner back wall during the compressor operation will defrost automatically (when the compressor has cycled off) . Defrost water will drain out passing through the drain outlet in the inner back wall into a drain pan situated above the compressor, from where it evaporates.

If you do not intend to use the appliance for long periods of time, disconnect the power supply, take out the contents and defrost and clean the appliance. Leave the door slightly open.

Cleaning the Appliance Disconnect the power supply before cleaning the appliance. Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning agents as you may damage the surface. Clean the exterior with water and detergent. Remove the detachable accessories in the interior of the appliance and clean with water and liquid detergent. Plastic parts cannot be washed in dishwashers. Wash the interior of the appliance with lukewarm water , adding one or two spoonfuls of vinegar. After cleaning, connect the appliance to power supply and reload it.

Correct Step to Change Bulb: 1.Pull out the power plug from wall socked. Use a screw driver to loose the screw that holds the bulb protective cover and then remove the cover. 2.Screw out the old bulb counter-clockwise. 3.Screw on a new bulb ( max. power 15W) clockwise. 4.Replace the bulb protective cover. Very important: Be sure to disconnect power supply before you change bulb.

Trouble-Shooting Guide . Sometimes you may come across minor problems

Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall

that in most cases do not require a service call and can be easily eliminated. The problem may have resulted from improper handling and / or installation of the appliance. Please refer to the below trouble-shooting guide to assist you in identifying the possible cause and solution to your problem. Should the problem still persist after completing these checkpoints, contact the closest authorized service agent in your area for assistance.

As long as the defrost water runs to the channel and through the outlet to the drain pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting of the appliance is assured. In case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (3-5mm.), ice should be manually defrosted. Disconnect the power supply, leave the door open and defrost the ice. Never use electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp objects.

The Appliance Fails to Operate After Connecting to Electrical Power Supply

After defrosting is complete, close the door, connect the power supply and set the temperature as desired. The cause of increased ice formation may be one of the following: _ the door does not seal well (clean the

(blown fuse / circuit breaker) .

Continuous Operation of the Cooling System . The door is frequently opened or left open for

too long. . The door is not properly closed (the door may

gasket if it is contaminated, or replace it if it is damaged); the door is frequently opened or left open too long; the content stored in the appliance was warm; the contents are touching the inner back wall.

Check the accessories on the interior of the appliance, they should be placed correctly in their positions; also check bottles, tins, and other vessels are not touching each other causing rattling and/or vibrations.

Water is Leaking From the Appliance If the discharge water outlet is clogged, or the defrost water drips over the channel, water will leak from the appliance. . Clean the clogged outlet. . Manually defrost the increased ice layer ( see Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall ).

Noise Cooling in this appliance is made possible by cooling the system using a compressor, which will produce certain noise levels. How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it is used and how old the appliance is. . During the operation of the compressor the noise of the liquid is heard and when the compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is heard. This is a normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance. . After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and the refrigerant flow may be louder, which does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance and it has no influence on the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise will reduce. . Sometimes unusual and louder noise may be heard. This noise is often a consequence of inadequate installation. _ The appliance must be level and installed on a firm solid base/floor. _ The appliance should not touch the wall or kitchen units standing next to it. 9
