Refrigerator compartment
D e f r o s t i n g
While the refrigerating unit is running,
condensation droplets or frost form on
the rear panel. This is due to functional
reasons. It is not necessary to wipe off
the condensation droplets or frost. The
rear panel defrosts automatically. The
condensation drains off into the
condensation channel.
~ Fig. .
The condensation runs from the
condensation channel to the
evaporation pan where it evaporates.
Note: Keep the condensation channel
and drainage hole clean so that the
condensation can drain and odours do
not form.
