FRIDGE DEFROSTING
The fridge defrosting process is carried out automatically every
time the compressor stops�
The defrost water is automatically routed to the drain port and
into a tray placed on the top of the compressor to the rear of the
appliance from which it evaporates�
Make sure the drain port on the fridge at the rear of the appliance
is kept clear�
NOISE FROM YOUR APPLIANCE
You may notice some rather unusual noises� The noises are caused
by circulation of refrigerant in the cooling system� It has become
more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases� This is
not a fault and will not affect the performance of your fridge�
PROLONGED OFF PERIODS
If the appliance is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as
follows:
1� Disconnect from the mains supply�
2� Clean and dry the inside (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’)�
3� Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from
building up while the appliance is not in use�
