Periods Of Non-Operation; Defrosting Of The Refrigerator; Troubleshooting - AEG SFB61821AS Benutzerhandbuch

The absence of frost is due to the
continuous circulation of cold air inside
the compartment, driven by an
automatically controlled fan.
6.4 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 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 in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and
dripping onto the food inside.
