container at the back of the appliance, over
the motor compressor, where it evaporates.

defrost water drain hole in the middle of the
refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and dripping
onto the food inside. Use the special
cleaner provided, which you will find
already inserted into the drain hole.
Defrosting the freezer
The freezer compartment is frost free. This
means that there is no build up of frost
when it is in operation, neither on the
internal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continuous
circulation of cold air inside the
compartment, driven by an automatically
controlled fan.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Remove all food.
2. Defrost, if applicable
3. Clean the appliance and all accessories.
4. Leave all doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a
while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a power
failure.
