Disconnect your appliance prior to performing any maintenance operation. Grasp
the plug directly, instead of pulling on the power cable.
Cleaning your appliance
We recommend that you clean and
disinfect your appliance regularly
for improved hygiene and to keep
your food completely safe.
Remove all the food from the appliance. Place
it in isothermic bags or wrap it in newspaper
and store it in a cool place.
Clean your appliance inside and out with a
bicarbonate of soda solution (1 dessertspoon
of bicarbonate to 4 litres of water). Do not use
alcohol, scouring powder or detergents, which
could damage the surfaces.
Do not use a high-pressure steam
cleaner. The very hot steam could
damage the surfaces and the elec-
trical circuits; you would expose
yourself to a risk of electrocution.
Rinse with water, dry with a cloth.
Periodically check that the drain hole for the
defrosting water is not blocked and clean it
with a stick as shown in the Drawing.
Don't forget to clean the condenser from time
to time: this is at the back of the appliance
(see the section on "Description of your appli-
ance"). Use a dry paintbrush to do this or, bet-
ter yet, your vacuum cleaner.
Reconnect your appliance, and adjust the
refrigerator's thermostat if necessary, as
shown in the section on.
Wait 3 or 4 hours before placing the food back
in your appliance.
