APPLIANCE PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE 
AND CLEANING

Cleaning the freezer compartment

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, 
switch off the appliance by pressing button (1) on the 
control panel for 3 seconds, and then unplug the 
appliance from the mains or disconnect the electrical 
power supply.
It is advisable to defrost the freezer once or twice a 
year, or when too much ice has formed on the 
refrigerant grilles.
It is perfectly normal for ice to form on the grilles. 
The amount of ice which forms and the rate at 
which it accumulates will depends on room 
temperature and humidity, and on the frequency 
with which the door is opened.
If possible, defrost the freezer when it is nearly 
empty.
24 hours before defrosting, press the fast freeze 
button. This brings the food to the lowest possible 
temperature to help maintain the food in a frozen 
state during defrosting. 
1. 
Open the freezer door and remove all the food, 

wrapping it close together in sheets of newspaper and 
put it in a very cool place or in a portable cooler. Leave 
the freezer door open to allow the frost to melt.

2. Pull out the defrost water drain and place a container 

under the drain. It is advisable to place a cloth in 
contact with the cabinet under the drain, to absorb any 
drops of water. 

3. Clean the interior with a sponge soaked in warm water 

and/or neutral detergent. Do not use abrasive 
substances.

4. Rinse the interior and dry thoroughly.
5. Remove the drain.
6. Close the freezer door.
7. Plug in the appliance and press button (1) again for 3 

seconds. The acoustic alarm will sound (temperature 
alarm); to mute the acoustic alarm, press button (11). 
Place food inside the freezer only when the red light 
(10) goes off.

Note:
If the compartment is not used for prolonged periods, it is 
advisable to leave the freezer door open to prevent the 
formation of mould, bad odours and oxidation.
