CARE AND CLEANING

Caution!

 Unplug the appliance before

carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in

its cooling unit; maintenance and re-

charging must therefore only be carried

out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• clean the inside and accessories with luke-

warm water and some neutral soap.

• regularly check the door seals and wipe

clean to ensure they are clean and free

from debris.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Important!

 Do not pull, move or damage any

pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.

Never use detergents, abrasive powders,

highly perfumed cleaning products or wax

polishes to clean the interior as this will dam-

age the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the

compressor at the back of the appliance with

a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation

will improve the performance of the appli-

ance and save energy consumption.

Important!

 Take care of not to damage the

cooling system.

Important!

 When moving the cabinet, lift it

by the front edge to avoid scratching the

floor.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners

contain chemicals that can attack/damage

the plastics used in this appliance. For this

reason use a soft cloth rinsed in warm water

and neutral soap emulsion for cleaning ex-

ternal surfaces.

Important!

 Do not use detergents or

abrasive paste as these will damage the

paint, or stainless steel anti finger print

coating.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to

the mains supply.

Cleaning the ventilation grille

The ventilation grille can be removed for

washing.

Make sure the door is open and then:

1. Loosen the upper edge of the grille by

pulling outward/downward.

2. Pull the grille straight out to completely

remove it.

3. Vacuum clean under the cabinet.

Defrosting of the freezer

The freezer compartment of this model, on

the other hand, is a "no frost" type. This

means that there is no buildup of frost when

it is in operation, neither on the internal walls

nor on the foods.

The absence of frost is due to the continuous

circulation of cold air inside the compart-

ment, driven by an automatically controlled

fan.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long pe-

riods, take the following precautions:

1. disconnect the appliance from electricity

supply

2. remove all food

3. clean the appliance and all accessories

4. leave the door/doors open to prevent un-

pleasant smells.

Important!

 If the cabinet will be kept on, ask

somebody to check it once in a while to

prevent the food inside from spoiling in case

of a power failure.

WHAT TO DO IF…

During operation of the appliance some

smaller but annoying trouble can often occur,

which does not require calling a technician

out. In the following chart information is given
