Cleaning and maintenance

EN

The surface of the refrigerator is warm:
•  The refrigerator is fitted with a 

condensation prevention system and 
heat radiation pipes. 

•  The rear and side panels may be 

particularly hot when the appliance is 
started up or if the door is open and 
closed frequently.

•  The two compartments are connected by 

an air duct. When one of the doors is 
closed, the other may open due to the air 
pressure inside the duct. This is normal.

The LED lamp inside the refrigerator 
compartment has to be replaced:
•  Have it replaced by a Service Centre.

There are undulations and / or 
deformations on the surface of the door, the 
side and the top of the refrigerator:
•  Small undulations and deformations can 

be generated during the refrigerator 
manufacturing process. They may 
appear more or less accentuated 
according to the position of the light 
sources or the brightness of the 
environment, but they do not affect the 
performance in any way.

Condensation forms when warm, 
moist air comes into contact with 
something cold. For example, if 
you put ice in a glass, the air 
around the glass cools and 
condensation forms on the outer 
surface of the glass. 
In the same way, when hot, damp 
air enters the refrigerator when the 
door is opened it comes into 
contact with the cold inside wall 
forming a small amount of 
condensation. 
If the door is opened frequently or 
for a long time, condensation will 
build up each time. In some cases, 
the condensation may turn into ice 
in the freezer compartment.

If the problem has not been 
resolved or for other types of fault, 
please contact your local Service 
Centre.
