(Or) Min. Max.
Please note that there will be
different temperatures in the cooling
area.
The coldest region is immediately
above the vegetable compartment.
The interior temperature also
depends on ambient temperature,
the frequency with which the door is
opened and the amount of food kept
inside.
Frequently opening the door causes
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
The coldest region is immediately
below the ice making compartment.
Under high humidity, condensation
may occur on your refrigerator; this is
not a failure. It can be wiped with a dry
cloth according to safety instructions.
Icing, frosting and condensation are
normal for icebox compartment and
water drain container.
Check regularly to see if the drain
pipe is clogged or not and clear it with
the stick in the hole when necessary.

defrost your appliance at least twice
a year, or whenever the ice build-up
exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your device when there is
only little or no food in it.
Take out the food. Wrap the food in
several layers of paper, or a blanket,
and keep it in a cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch
off the circuit breaker to start the
defrosting process.
Take out the accessories (like shelf,
drawer etc.) from the appliance and
use a suitable container to collect the
thawing water.
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to
remove thawing water if necessary at
the compartments.
Keep the door open during
defrosting.
For quicker defrosting, place
containers with warm water inside
the appliance.
Never use electrical devices,
defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp-
edged objects such as knives or forks
to remove the ice.
After the defrosting is done, clean
the inside.
Reconnect the appliance to the
mains. Place the frozen food into the
drawers and slide the drawers into the
freezer.
Switch off the circuit breaker and
unplug the appliance for your safety
to start the defrosting process.
During defrost, evaporation tray
damper should be positioned as in the
winter mode. After defrost, it can be
positioned with respect to summer or
winter mode, as needed.
