HABITUAL NOISES

Some noises are normal when the appliance is operating.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Breaking ice: 

Ice may break when moved. The noise is the same as that made by ice cubes 

when exposed to ambient temperature.

Compressor noise: 

Normal motor noise. This noise means the compressor is operating 

normally.

Gas expansion noise:

It is normal to hear the noise of the expansion gas in the refrigeration 

system. This noise is similar to a balloon being inflated.

Defrost noise:

Normal noise of flowing water. This can be heard when the unit is 

defrosting.

Fan system noise:

Normal fan noise. This noise can be heard when the Multi-Flow system 

is operating normally. This system ensures a uniform temperature in the 

refrigerator so that defrosting is no longer necessary.

Before carrying out any cleaning operations, unplug the 

appliance.

•

Clean the inside of the freezer compartment when defrosting.

•

Periodically clean the inside of the refrigerator compartment 

with a sponge dampened in warm water and/or neutral 

detergent. Rinse the interior and dry with a soft cloth. Do not 

use abrasive products.

•

Clean the outside with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive 

products, scourers, stain-removers (e.g. acetone, 

trichloroethylene) or vinegar.

•

Both refrigerator and freezer compartments are provided with 

an automatic defrosting function (no frost system).

• Periodically clean the condenser (radiator) at the rear of 

the appliance and the plinth with a vacuum cleaner or 

brush.

Prolonged disuse

1.

Empty the refrigerator and freezer compartments

2.

Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply

3.

Clean and dry both refrigerator and freezer compartments

4.

Leave the doors open to prevent formation of unpleasant odours.
