    IIRC they are locking them into a defrost cycle that would normally heat up the coils for a minute or two, just long enough to melt the frost.

      That still seems like a design flaw. A simple thermostat would cut the heater off past the right defrost temperature and would have prevented this.

      But it probably added a couple Euros to the price so they didn’t do it
