Defrosting

Refrigerator

The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the

compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the

pipe, into a tray located at the back of the appliance

above the compressor, where it evaporates.

Important

To avoid defrost water overflowing into the fridge,

periodically clean the water discharge hole in the

centre of the V shaped drip collector at the back of the

refrigerator compartment behind the fruit and

vegetable drawer. Use the defrost cleaner provided

which you will find already inserted into the discharge

hole.
Remember to wash the defrost cleaner in hot soapy

water at regular intervals. Dry throughly before

replacing.
