MAINTENANCE
Internal cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories of the refrigerating
compartment with warm water and sodium
bicarbonate (one tablespoon in 4 litres of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean the inside of the freezer compartment after each
complete defrosting.
External cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Do not use abrasive products.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)
and compressor at the back of the appliance with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. An accumulation of dust
will affect the performance of the appliance and cause
excessive electricity consumption.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
disconnect from the mains, empty and clean, leaving
the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
Interior light bulb
The light inside the refrigerator compartment is easy
to get at through the opening in the light holder.
If the light does not go on when the door is open,
check that it is screwed into place properly.
If it still does not light up, change the bulb.
The rating is shown on the light bulb cover.

CUSTOMER SERVICE
What to do if the appliance is not
functioning properly.
If something is not working properly, check that:
the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains
power switch is on;
there is an electricity supply (find out by plugging in
another appliance);
the thermostat knob is in the correct position.
If the appliance seems too noisy, check that the sides
are not touching furniture that can transmit or amplify
a noise or a vibration. Also, check that the piping of
the refrigerant system does not vibrate.
If there are water drops on the bottom of the cabinet,
check that the defrost water drain opening is not
obstructed.
If your appliance is still not working properly after
making the above checks, contact the nearest service
centre.
To obtain fast service, it is essential that when you
apply for it you specify the model & serial number of
your appliance which can be found on the rating plate.
