HOW TO CLEAN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
Clean the refrigerator compartment
regularly.
Refrigerator compartment defrosting is
fully automatic.
The formation of water droplets on the rear
internal wall of the refrigerator compartment
indicates that the automatic defrosting is
underway. Defrost water is channelled to a run-
off and collected in a container, where it
evaporates. Clean the run-off channel regularly,
using the supplied instrument, in order to
guarantee a continuous outflow of defrost
water.
Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the
mains.

Use a sponge soaked in lukewarm water
and/or neutral detergent.

Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use
abrasive materials.
