Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A refrigeration appliance includes an evaporator and a defrost heater which periodically subjects the evaporator to a defrost process, A temperature sensor is disposed at least in proximity to the evaporator and is adapted for switching off the defrost heater once the temperature sensor detects a predetermined defrost temperature. The temperature sensor provides a predetermined defrost temperature profile having first, second and third time segments. A first defrost temperature during the first time segment changes to a second defrost temperature during the second time segment, and holds the second defrost temperature during the third time segment.
