Defrosting
The fridge defrosts automatically
The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is
running, and defrosts when the compressor is off.
The water from the thawing frost is collected in the drain channel on
the rear of the fridge, feed through the drain hole into the collector
on the compressor, and then evaporated.
The water drainage hole must be cleaned regularly (see the section
"Cleaning and Maintenance").
Correct Storage
For physical reasons, there are different
temperature regions in the fridge.
The coldest region is on the lowest stora-
ge shelf.
Warmer regions are the top storage shelf,
the vegetable basket and the storage
compartments on the door.
The arrangement example shows at
which places in the refrigerator suitable
temperatures for various types of foods
exist.
Tip: Food in the fridge should always be
covered or packaged, to prevent drying
and tainting of other food.
The following are suited for packaging:
– Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps;
– Plastic containers with lids;
– Special plastic covers with elastic;
– aluminium foil.
