What to do if...
Problem
The appliance does not operate.
Defrosting refrigerator compartment
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 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 at the back of the refrigerator
compartment to prevent the water overflowing
and dripping onto the food inside.
For this purpose use the tube cleaner provided
in the accessory bag.
Defrosting freezer compartment
The freezer compartment has automatic
defrosting function.
Due to seasonal changes, a thick layer of frost
may form. To defrost manually, observe the
followings.
