Start defrosting process
Before defrosting the refrigerator, it is necessary to disconnect it from the power supply and set the temperature controller to zero. Then you need to get all the contents out of it, put it in a cold place, if possible, after packing it in thermo-packs.
After the refrigerator has been turned off from the outlet, a natural defrost starts. In order to collect water after thawing of frost and ice, it is necessary to place the containers on the shelves of the device, as well as to lay under it a rag of absorbent material, leave the system alone for several hours( depending on the amount of hard ice, as well asdimensions of the chambers).
Care of the device equipped with the function No Frost, it is very simple - you just need to disconnect it from the network, get the products, wipe the walls, shelves and jumpers and turn it back on.
Cleaning and disinfection of the
Then wash all surfaces, shelves and removable parts of the refrigerator with a mild detergent solution. After this, you can wipe the internal walls with a solution of soda to disinfect and eliminate unpleasant odors. When the cleaning of the device is completed, you need to leave the camera doors open for a short time to allow all parts to dry.
It is not necessary to remove ice and frost with the help of sharp objects when defrosting, as it is possible to disable the evaporator. It is also not recommended to use aggressive cleaners and granular powders - this can damage the antibacterial coating.
After all surfaces are washed and wiped dry, it is possible to fill the shelves with products and connect the unit to the network.
Fast defrosting of
refrigerator If time for complete defrosting is not enough, and it is necessary to fulfill it, there are ways to reduce the time required for this process. Before defrosting the refrigerator in the accelerated mode, it is worth remembering that any sudden changes in the temperatures inside the chambers or mechanical impact on the blocks of ice formed during operation can damage the freezing and evaporation mechanisms, as well as destabilize the system.
Acceleration of defrosting is as follows:
- It is necessary to install containers filled with hot water on the shelves of the device, periodically pour hot water into the cooling water. This will allow ice to melt faster
- Reduce the defrost time by using hot air using a hair dryer or a fan heater. Directing the flow of hot air to the frozen walls, you can get rid of ice and frost in less than two hours.
- . In order to influence the ice on a chemical level, you can put a plate with salt or vinegars inside the freezer, or sprinkle ice on the top. This will corrode the ice cover and accelerate the defrosting process. After this, it is necessary to thoroughly wash the inner surfaces to avoid damaging them.
It is recommended to conduct defrosting of refrigerators in the cold season approximately every four months, and in a warm season - every two months. Cleaning and disinfection of devices with dry freezing is recommended to be carried out twice a year.
