NO-FROST REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT

Refrigerator compartment defrosting is completely automatic. Droplets of water on the rear wall inside the refrigerator compartment indicate that the automatic defrost phase is in progress. The defrost water is automatically run into a drain hole and collected in a container, where it evaporates.

DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT

The freezer should be defrosted once or twice a year or when excessive frost is present (3 mm thickness). The formation of frost is normal.The amount and rate at which frost accumulates depends on room conditions and how often the door is open. To defrost the unit, switch o the product and take out all food. Leave the freezer door open to allow the frost to melt. Use the box under the bottom front of the appliance to collect water (showed on the gure). Clean the inside of the freezer. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Switch the appliance back on and store the food inside.

STOP FROST ACCESSORY

The STOP FROST accessory is designed to collect some of the frost that forms in the freezer compartment and it is easy to remove and clean, therefore reducing the time needed to defrost the inside of the freezer compartment.
