7.3 Defrosting the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compart-
ment every time the motor compressor
stops, during normal use. The defrost wa-
ter drains out through a drain hole into a
special container at the back of the appli-
ance, over the motor compressor, where
it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole in the middle of the
refrigerator compartment channel to pre-
vent the water overflowing and dripping
onto the food inside.
Use the special cleaner provided, which
you will find already inserted into the drain
hole.

7.4 Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment of this model,
on the other hand, is a "no frost" type.
This means that there is no buildup of
frost when it is in operation, neither on the
internal walls nor on the foods.

The absence of frost is due to the contin-
uous circulation of cold air inside the
compartment, driven by an automatically
controlled fan.
