Defrosting

33

Freezer section

The appliance is equipped with a
“NoFrost” system. The freezer defrosts
automatically.

The moisture generated in the
appliance collects on the evaporator
and is automatically defrosted and
dissipated from time to time.

This automatic defrosting system
enables the freezer to remain
permanently ice-free. Food stored in the
freezer will not defrost with this system.
