DE-ICING
Your refrigerator has an automatic de-icing system. The rear
face of the appliance covers itself with ice when the compressor
is working and de-ices when the compressor is off. When the ice
melts, the water evaporates by itself.
The freezer compartment
must always be de-iced when
the ice layer has reached a thickness of approximately 4mm.
In any case, this compartment must be de-iced at least once a
year.
To de-ice it, you can use a scraper or any plastic utensil but never
an metal instrument or an electric appliance.
Disconnect your refrigerator before proceeding to
de-ice it.
• Wrap your frozen food in a freezer bag and keep it cool.
• Leave the door open and sponge the melting water as
necessary.
•To speed up de-icing, you can place a container of hot water in
the compartment and shut the door.
• Once the de-icing has finished, clean your appliance.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Disconnect your refrigerator before cleaning it.
We recommend that you clean and disinfect your appliance it
regularly.
• Clean the inside with water and bicarbonate with a sponge or
dishcloth to avoid the formation of unpleasant odours.
• Never use a solvent or an abrasive detergent, as it can damage
the inside of your refrigerator. Do not put any accessories into a
dishwasher.
• It is advisable to wipe the back of the appliance with a cloth once
a year, as the efficiency of the refrigerator drops and power
consumption increases when it is dirty.
REPLACING THE BULB
Disconnect your refrigerator before changing the bulb.
• The bulb is behind the thermostat panel. Pull back the grill.
• Rmove the bulb by unscrewing it counterclockwise.
• Replace it with a new bulb of the same wattage.
• Replace the grill, reconnect the appliance and turn it back on.
