The defrost drain hole
o
Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator section during
operation. The defrost water is collected by the evaporating tray
and evaporates automatically.
o
The drain hole should be cleaned periodically with the drain hole
cleaner. This will prevent water from collecting in the bottom of
the refrigerator, instead of flowing down the defrost drainage
channel and drain hole.
o
IMPORTANT: Please note that the drain hole cleaner should not
be left in position permanently. Otherwise this may prevent the
defrost water from entering the drain hole.
o
You can also pour a small amount of water down the drain hole
to clean the defrost drainage channel.
o
You should be careful to make sure that food packages do not
touch the rear wall of the appliance, as this can interrupt the
automatic defrosting process and deflect water into the base of
the refrigerator section.
o
Use a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water to
clean the evaporating tray.
o
IMPORTANT: It is normal to get some ice droplets forming on
the back wall of the appliance. The formation of ice droplets does
not indicate an appliance fault.
