5.2 Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops,
during normal use. The defrost water drains
out through a trough into a special contain-
er at the back of the appliance, over the
motor compressor, where it evaporates.
Periodically clean the defrost water drain
hole in the middle of the refrigerator com-
partment channel to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food in-
side. Use the special cleaner provided,
which you will find already inserted into the
drain hole.
5.3 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 inter-
nal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continu-
ous circulation of cold air inside the com-
partment, driven by an automatically con-
trolled fan.
5.4 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• remove all food
• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appli-
ance and all accessories
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some-
body to check it once in a while to prevent
the food inside from spoiling in case of a
power failure.
5.5 Replacing the carbon air filter
To get the best performance the carbon air
filter should be changed once every six
months.
New active air filters can be purchased
from your local dealer.
Refer to "Installation of the carbon air filter"
for the instructions.
6. WHAT TO DO IF…

shooting that is not in this manual. There are some sounds during nor-
mal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
