ones; salt reduces the storage life of food;

¥ water ices, if consumed immediately after

removal from the freezer compartment, can

compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost

water drains out through a trough into a special

container at the back of the appliance, over the

motor compressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the defrost

water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator

compartment channel to prevent the water

overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.

Use the special cleaner provided, which you will

find already inserted into the drain hole.
