13.1 Defrosting in the refri-
gerator compartment
When the appliance is operating,
condensation droplets or frost form
on the rear panel of the refrigerator
compartment due to functional reas-
ons. The back panel in the refriger-
ator compartment defrosts automatic-
ally.
Condensation runs through the con-
densation channel into the drainage
hole to the evaporation pan and does
not have to be wiped away.
To ensure that the condensation can
drain and odours do not form, ob-
serve the following information:

13.2 Defrosting in the freezer
compartment
The fully automatic NoFrost system
ensures that the freezer compartment
remains frost-free. Defrosting is not
required.
