Defrosting the freezer
The freezer has a no frost system which is designed to prevent the
heavy build up of ice. Under normal use, there should be no need to
regularly defrost the freezer system.
To help in times of service or cleaning, the appliance has a forced
defrost mode which can be activated by touching and holding
sensors A and C in Fig. 3 for approximately 3 seconds. The
refrigerator temperature adjustment sensor (A) will flash to confirm
that the forced defrost function is active. This function should
automatically deactivate once the freezer temperature has reached
between 10 and 12°C.
Please note:
If you are regularly finding a heavy build up of ice, or
pools of water, in the freezer section then it is likely that the door is
not sealing properly. This could be due to a defective door seal or an
incorrectly fitted, or overly heavy, decor door. For more information
see the troubleshooting section on ice on page 14.
Defrosting the fridge
The fridge is self-defrosting. Any water created will run out of the
fridge through the channel at the back of the fridge. The defrosted
water is collected in the evaporating tray at the back of the appliance
and dissipated by evaporation.
