• Do not put fresh food together with frozen
food. This to prevent the temperature of the
frozen food to increase.
• The storage time for fat food is shorter than
for non-fat food or for low-fat food. The salt
decreases the storage time of the food.
• We recommend that you write, on each
packaging, the date of when the food was
frozen.
Storage of the frozen food
• When you buy frozen food, make sure that
you put it in the freezer in a very short time.
• When you thaw frozen food, you must cook
it in a very short time. It is not possible to
freeze again food that was frozen before.
• Make sure that the use-by date is not ex-
pired. You can find the information on the
packaging of the food.
Care and cleaning
Caution!
Before maintenance,
disconnect the mains plug from the mains
socket.
Cleaning
• Clean the appliance and the accessories
regularly.
• Clean all the parts of the appliance and all
the accessories only with warm water and
neutral detergent. Make sure that the appli-
ance and the accessories are fully dry.
• Clean the gasket of the door regularly. To
replace a damaged gasket, contact the
Service.
• Clean the grill of the condenser and the
compressor, that are behind the appliance,
with a brush. This helps to decreases the
energy consumption and keeps the appli-
ance in good conditions.
Important!
• Be careful not to pull, move or to cause
damage to the pipes or the cables.
• Be careful not to cause damage to the cool-
ing unit.
• Do not clean the appliance with abrasive
products, abrasive cleaning pads, solvents,
detergents with perfume or wax polish.
After maintenance, connect the mains plug to
the mains socket.
Automatic defrosting of the fridge
The removal of frost occurs automatically
when the motor compressor stops during op-
eration.
The water drains out through the drain hole
and collects in the water container where it
evaporates.
The water container is behind the appliance,
above the motor compressor.
The drain hole is in the fridge on the rear part.
To prevent water to collect in other parts of
the fridge, make sure that the drain hole is al-
ways clean. Use the cleaning tool that is in the
drain hole.
Defrosting of the freezer
There can be frost on the freezer shelves
and around the top compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the layer of frost has
a thickness of 3 or 5 mm.
Caution!
Do not use sharp metal tools to
remove the frost.
Do not use mechanical devices to defrost the
freezer.
