during normal use. The defrost water drains
out through a trough into a special contain-
er at the back of the appliance, over the
motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole in the middle of the
refrigerator compartment channel to pre-
vent the water overflowing and dripping on-
to the food inside. Use the special cleaner
provided, which you will find already inser-
ted into the drain hole.
Defrosting of the freezer
The freezer compartment of this model, on
the other hand, is a "no frost" type. This
means that there is no buildup of frost
when it is in operation, neither on the inter-
nal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continu-
ous circulation of cold air inside the com-
partment, driven by an automatically con-
trolled fan.
WHAT TO DO IF…

Before troubleshooting,
disconnect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or compe-
tent person must do the troubleshoot-
ing that is not in this manual.
Important!
There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
