(54) A method of regulating defrost operation in cooling devices


(57) The method according to the present invention is developed for cooling devices capable to detect defrost time, wherein the starting time of a defrost process is regulated by this method. In a first step of this method, the data indicating that new foodstuff is placed to the freezer compartment of a cooling device is entered to the control unit of the cooling device by a user, then in a second step following this data entry, the device keeps continuing the cooling process, and thereafter in a third step, the user is alerted by means of a signal generator connected to the control unit after a while. In a fourth step of this method, new foodstuffs are put to the freezer compartment after said alert, and the cooling process is continued, and in a fifth step, if it is determined by the device that it is time to perform a defrost operation after new foodstuff is loaded to the compartment, the defrost operation can be delayed to a future time.
