Defrosting
The fully automatic NoFrost system keeps the freezer compartment frost-free. The refri-
gerator compartment also defrosts several times a day. This means that manual defrost-
ing is unnecessary.
Keep the collection channel and the drain pipe clean so that the water can flow un-
impeded.
▸ Using up-and-down and round-and-round
movements, clean the defrost drainage
channel with the green detergent
provided.
If milk has been spilt accidentally and ended up in the defrost drainage channel:
► Push some kitchen towel into the drainage hole and try to absorb as much li-
quid as possible.
► If more than 1 dl has flowed into the defrost drainage channel and/or a strong
odour develops after a while: Contact Customer Services.
If any foreign objects get into the defrost drainage channel:
► Carefully push a flexible, plastic object (such as a cable tie) into the drainage
hole and try as far as possible to remove them.
► Do not use hard or sharp objects as these could damage the defrost drainage
channel and neighbouring components.

Noises and warnings
10.1
Operating noise
The appliance can make various noises during operation. Although the appliance is
noise-optimized, some noise cannot be eliminated completely. This noise depends on
the size of the appliance, how it is installed and the cooling requirements (e.g. fast cool-
ing), the ambient temperature and the installation conditions. Operating noises are partic-
ularly audible immediately after switching on the compressor; however, these noises be-
come quieter as the appliance runs.
Unusual noises are often caused by improper installation. The appliance must be in-
stalled on a level and stable surface. In open kitchens or in the case of appliances in-
stalled in partitioned areas, normal operating noises may seem louder. This is not a fault
but rather an effect of the design/architecture.
