Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:
1. set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on
2. pull the plug out of the socket
!
If this procedure is not followed, the alarm may
sound. This alarm does not indicate a malfunction. To
restore normal operation, it is sufficient to set the
FREEZER OPERATION knob on the desired value. To
disconnect the appliance, follow point 1 and 2.
Cleaning the appliance
The external and internal parts, as well as the
rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that
has been soaked in lukewarm water and
bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use
solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.
The removable accessories may be soaked in
warm water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse
and dry them carefully.
The back of the appliance may collect dust which
can be removed by delicately using the hose of a
vacuum cleaner set on medium power. The
appliance must be switched off and the plug must
be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.
During the cleaning of the slide rails for the drawers
in the freezer compartment, it may happen that the
automatic drawer closure mechanism is
deactivated. To reactivate it, simply close the
drawer a little more forcefully than is usually
necessary.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours
The appliance is manufactured with hygienic
materials which are odour free. In order to maintain
an odour free refrigerator and to prevent the
formation of stains, food must always be covered or
sealed properly.
If you want to switch the appliance off for an
extended period of time, clean the inside and leave
the doors open.
Holiday function
If you are going on holiday, you do not have to switch
the appliance off; it features a low-energy function
which optimises the temperature of the refrigerator
compartment to suit the products stored inside it (you
may, for example, wish to protect cosmetics and
beauty products from the heat). The freezer
temperature must be set to the minimum value in
order to preserve the food.
To enable the function: set the REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION knob on
.
A double acoustic signal informs you when it has
been enabled. A single acoustic signal informs you
when it has been disabled.
Optimization Energy Saving function
If you are going on holiday but would like the
operating temperature performance of the product to
remain unchanged, you can use the
Optimization
Energy Saving
function. This function maximises the
energy saved. It is activated by setting the knobs to I
CARE, then pressing and holding the Super Freeze
button for at least 9 seconds; the Super Freeze
indicator light will begin to flash, signalling the
activation of this function.
The
Optimization Energy Saving
function may also
be deactivated by pressing the Super Freeze button
again. The corresponding indicator light will stop
flashing, thereby signalling that the original operating
conditions have been restored.
In humid environments, when the
Optimization
Energy Saving
function is activated, slight
condensation may form on the door of the appliance;
normal operating conditions are restored when the
function is deactivated.
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator
compartment, pull out the plug from the electrical
socket. Follow the
instructions below.
Access the light bulb by
removing the cover as
indicated in the
diagram.
Replace it with a similar
light bulb within the
power range indicated
on the cover (10 W, 15
W or 25 W).
