While the refrigerating unit is running,
beads of condensation or hoarfrost
formĂat the back of the refrigerator
compartment. This is quite normal.
ItĂisĂnot necessary to wipe off the
condensation or frost. The rear panel
defrosts automatically. The condensation
runs into the condensation channel
3 and is conveyed to the refrigerating
unit where it evaporates.
Note: Keep the condensation channel
and drain hole 3 clean so that the
condensation can drain.
