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.

Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do

NOT use abrasive products.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)
