CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

7.1 

General warnings

CAUTION!

Unplug the appliance before

carrying out any

maintenance operation.

This appliance contains

hydrocarbons in its cooling

unit; maintenance and

recharging must therefore

only be carried out by

authorized technicians.

The accessories and parts of

the appliance are not

suitable for washing in a

dishwasher.

7.2 

Periodic cleaning

CAUTION!

Do not pull, move or

damage any pipes and/or

cables inside the appliance.

CAUTION!

Do not damage the cooling

system.

The equipment has to be cleaned

regularly:

1.

Clean the inside and accessories with

lukewarm water and some neutral

soap.

2.

Regularly check the door seals and

wipe them clean to ensure they are

clean and free from debris.

3.

Rinse and dry thoroughly.

4.

If accessible, clean the condenser

and the compressor at the back of

the appliance with a brush.

This will improve the performance of

the appliance and save electricity

consumption.

7.3 

Defrosting of the

refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the

evaporator of the refrigerator

compartment every time the motor

compressor stops, during normal use.

The defrost water drains out through a

trough into a special container at the

back of the appliance, over the motor

compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the

defrost water drain hole in the middle of

the refrigerator compartment channel to

prevent the water overflowing and

dripping onto the food inside.

7.4 

Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment is frost free.

This means that there is no build up of

frost when it is in operation, neither on

the internal walls, nor on the foods.
