5.3 Defrosting
Your appliance is frost free. This means that there is no build up of frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls nor on the foods. The absence of frost is due to the continuous circulation of cold air inside the compartment, driven by an automatically controlled fan. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.
5.4 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Clean the appliance and all accessories.
4. Leave the door/doors open to prevent unpleasant smells.
