Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• clean the inside and accessories with lukewarm wa-

ter and some neutral soap.

• regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to en-

sure they are clean and free from debris.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/

or cables inside the cabinet.

Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly

perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to clean

the interior as this will damage the surface and leave a

strong odour.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at

the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum clean-

er. This operation will improve the performance of the

appliance and save electricity consumption.

Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chem-

icals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this ap-

pliance. For this reason it is recommended that the out-

er casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm wa-

ter with a little washing-up liquid added.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains

supply.

Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment of this model, on the other

hand, is a "no frost" type. This means that there is no

buildup of frost when it is in operation, neither on the

internal walls nor on the foods.

The absence of frost is due to the continuous circula-

tion of cold air inside the compartment, driven by an au-

tomatically controlled fan.

No-Frost technology

In order to facilitate the removal of the ice layer, the evap-

orator is assisted by electric heating during the defrost-

ing procedure. The ventilator is in OFF position. The de-

frost water will drip in the tray placed at the compressor

and will evaporate. In the course of the defrosting proce-

dure (approx. 30 minutes) the evaporator becomes

warm but it has no influence on the internal temperature.

The foods should be kept well-packed in order to avoid

any moisture loss as a result of air circulation.

Do not obstruct the vent holes.

It is recommended to put all foods in the baskets in the

freezer compartment.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take

the following precautions:

1. disconnect the appliance from electricity supply

2. remove all food

3. clean the appliance and all accessories

4. leave the lid open to prevent unpleasant smells.

Important! If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody

to check it once in a while to prevent the food inside

from spoiling in case of a power failure.

What to do if…

Normal Operating Sounds

• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound

when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or

tubing. This is correct.

• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being

pumped around and you will hear a whirring sound

and a pulsating noise from the compressor. This is

correct.

• The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden crack-

ing noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phe-

nomenon. This is correct.

• When the compressor switches on or switches off,

you will hear a faint "click" of the temperature regula-

tor. This is correct.
