Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to 
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply: 

Simply using the ADJUSTMENT button until all indicator 
lights are switched off (appliance switched off) is not 
enough to eliminate all electrical contact.

Cleaning the appliance

•  The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber 

seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has 
been soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of 
soda or neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive 
products, bleach or ammonia.

•  The removable accessories may be soaked in warm 

water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry 
them carefully.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

•   The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials 

which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free 
refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food 
must always be covered or sealed properly.

•  If you want to switch the appliance off for an 

extended period of time, clean the inside and leave 
the doors open.

Defrosting the appliance

!

 

Follow the instructions below. 

Do not use objects with sharp or pointed edges to defrost 
the appliance as these may damage the refrigeration 
circuit beyond repair.

The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: 
water is ducted to the back of the appliance by a special 
discharge outlet (

see diagram

) where the heat produced 

by the compressor causes it to evaporate.  
It is necessary to clean the discharge hole regularly so 
that the water can flow out easily.

Replacing the light bulb

To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, 
pull out the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the 
instructions below.
Access the light bulb by removing the cover as indicated 
in the diagram. Replace it with a similar light bulb within 
the power range indicated on the cover (10W or 15W).
