Defrosting the refrigerator
I
NOTE
In high ambient temperatures, the refrigerator may operate
continuously, which can lead to excessive formation of frost on the rear
wall of the refrigerator compartment.
Humidity can cause frost to form in the interior of the refrigerator or on the vaporiser.
A slight layer of frost or water droplets could form in the interior of the refrigerator if
it has been cooling for longer periods. This is normal because the moisture in the air
condenses to water when the temperature in the refrigerator drops. The refrigerator
is not defective.
The condensate flows out through a water drain duct into a water container at the
back of the device at top of the compressor, where it evaporates.
It is recommended to defrost the refrigerator every three weeks.
Proceed as follows:
➤ Switch off the refrigerator: press the
➤ Disconnect the refrigerator from the mains.
➤ Remove the drawers (see chapter "Removing the drawers" on page 24).
➤ Leave the door open.
➤ After defrosting wipe out the cabinet interior with a clean, damp cloth.
➤ Assemble the drawers.
