Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compart-
ment every time the motor compressor
stops, during normal use. The defrost wa-
ter drains out through a trough into a spe-
cial container at the back of the appli-
ance, over the motor compressor, where
it evaporates.
Periodically clean the defrost water drain
hole in the middle of the refrigerator com-
partment channel to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food in-
side. Use the special cleaner provided,
which you will find already inserted into
the drain hole.
5.3
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
About 12 hours prior to defrost-
ing, set the Temperature regulator
toward higher settings, in order to
build up sufficient chill reserve for
the interruption in operation.
