Check the water drain hole on the rear
wall of the refrigerator compartment.

Clear a blocked drain hole with the aid
of something like soft green peg, be
careful not to make any damage to the

Defrosting - Why defrosting
-
Water from food and air may form a
frost layer inside. This will weaken the
refrigeration when the frost is thick.
When it is more than 10mm thick, you
should defrost.
Defrosting in fresh food storage
compartment
-
The refrigeration compartment has
auto-defrost so there is no need to man-
ually defrost. Water from defrosting will
be drained into a drip tray through a
drainpipe at the back of the fridge auto-
matically.

-

disconnect the electricity supply.

buildup of odors.
