Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• clean the inside and accessories with warm

water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0,5 li-

ter of water)

• regularly check the door seals and wipe

clean to ensure 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.

Once a year remove the ventilation grill at the

base of the appliance and clean the air chan-

nels with a vacuum cleaner. This operation will

improve the performance of the appliance and

save electricity consumption.

Caution! Take care of not to damage the

cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners con-

tain 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.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the

mains supply.

Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evap-

orator of the refrigerator compartment every

time the motor compressor stops, during nor-

mal 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 peri-

odically clean the de-

frost water drain hole

(F) situated under the

salad drawers to pre-

vent the water over-

flowing and dripping

onto the food inside.

Use the special

cleaner provided (P),

which you will find al-

ready inserted into

the drain hole.

Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form

around the top compartment.

Important! Defrost the freezer when the frost

layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.

To remove the frost, do these steps:

1. Switch off the appliance.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several

layers of newspaper and put it in a cool

place.

3. Open the door.

4. When defrosting is completed, dry the in-

terior thoroughly.

5. Switch on the appliance.

6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain the

maximum coldness and run the appliance

for two or three hours using this setting.

7. Reload the previously removed food into

the compartment.

Warning! 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.
