MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance before carrying out

any maintenance operation.

Warning

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling

unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore

only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning

Clean the inside with warm water and bicarbonate of

soda. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not pull, move or damage any pipes

and /or cables inside the cabinet .

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the

compressor at the back of the appliance with a

brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation will

improve the performance of the appliance and save

electricity consumption.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners

contain chemicals that can attack/damage the

plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it

is recommended that the outer casing of this

appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a

little washing-up liquid added.

Defrosting

The freezer compartment, however, will become

progressively covered with frost.This should be

removed with the special plastic scraper provided,

whenever the thickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm.

During this operation it is not necessary to switch off

the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.

However, when the ice becomes very thick on the

inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out

as follows:

1. Pull out the plug from the wall socket or turn the

thermostat knob to the «

●

» setting;

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers

of newspaper and put it in a cool place;

3. Open the door and clean the appliance according

to 'Periodic cleaning';

Maintain and clean the freezer as following:

• Sweep off the melting water with a cloth or

sponge in direction of sides of the cooling

plates.The melting water swept down gathers in

the outlet channel practically formed in the

bottom of the appliance and can be removed

according to figure.

• Put an adequately high bowl or dish under the

outlet.

The bowl in figure is not a piece of accessories to

the appliance!

4. When defrosting is completed, dry the interior

thoroughly; keep the scraper for future use;

5. Replace the plug in the power socket or turn the

thermostat knob back to the required setting.

6. After two or three hours, reload the previously

removed food into the compartment.

Important

Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost

from the evaporator as you could damage it.

Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial

means to speed up the thawing process other

than those recommended by the manufacturer.

A temperature rise of the frozen food packs,

during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage

life.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods,

take the following precautions:

• remove the plug from the wall socket;

• remove all food;

• defrost and clean the interior and all accessories;

• leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate to

prevent unpleasant smells.
