Defrosting / hygrometry / ventilation
Your unit is designed with an automatic defrost system. During the "Off cycle" the
evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically. The condensate
collects in the drain trough behind the rear wall of the unit, and part of t flows
through the drainage hole into the drip tray by/above the compressor. The heat is
transferred from the discharge pipe or compressor and evaporates any condensa-
tion that has collected in the tray . Part of the remaining water is collected within
the unit for humidity purposes.
This system enables the creation of the correct humidity level inside your unit
required by the natural cork to maintain a long lasting seal and gives the cabinet
natural ventilation and constant air circulation.
The appliance is not totally sealed : fresh air admission is permitted through the
drainpipe and /or air exchange pipe . Air is circulated through the unit by means of
a fan fans and the open shelves.
NOTE: Frost may be accumulated on the evaporator if the unit is repeatedly
opened in a high heat or high humidity location. If this frost pattern does not clear
within 24 hours, your unit will require manual defrosting.
