CARE AND CLEANING
Caution! Unplug the appliance before
carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons
in its cooling unit; maintenance and re-
charging must therefore only be carried
out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with luke-
warm water and some neutral soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not pull, move or damage
any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products or wax
polishes to clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This op-
eration will improve the performance of the
appliance and save electricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason it is recommended that the outer cas-
ing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to
the mains supply.
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer rea-
ches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
Important! About 12 hours prior to
defrosting, set the Temperature Regulator
toward higher settings , in order to build up
sufficient chill reserve for the interruption in
operation.
To remove the frost, follow the instructions
below:
1. Switch off the appliance and disconnect
the mains plug from the mains socket.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in sev-
eral layers of newspaper and put it in a
cool place.
Caution! Do not touch frozen goods
with wet hands. Hands can freeze to
the goods.
3. Leave the door open and insert the plas-
tic scraper in the appropriate seating at
the bottom centre, placing a basin un-
derneath to collect the defrost water.
In order to speed up the defrosting proc-
ess, place a pot of warm water in the
freezer compartment. In addition, re-
move pieces of ice that break away be-
fore defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the in-
terior thoroughly and keep the scraper
for future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
