Defrosting
Refrigerator compartment
While the appliance is running, condensation droplets
or frost form on the rear panel of the refrigerator
compartment. As the rear panel defrosts
automatically, it is not necessary to remove the frost or
the condensation droplets. The condensation runs
through the condensation channel and the drainage
hole to the evaporation pan where it evaporates.
Note
Keep the condensation channel and drainage hole
clean, so the condensation can drain off.
