Defrosting
Refrigerator
The refrigerator defrosts every time the compressor
stops. The water is discharged, via the pipe, into a tray
located at the back of the appliance above the
compressor, where it evaporates.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowing into the fridge,
periodically clean the water discharge hole in the centre
of the V shaped drip collector at the back of the
refrigerator compartment, behind the salad drawers.
Use a piece of flexible curtain wire for this purpose.
