Maintenance
The information in this section is addressed to both
users (non-specialized personnel) and routine
maintenance workers.
Prohibition of Safety
Device Removal
Do not remove safety protections without having
switched off the refrigerator cabinet and disconnecting it
from the electrical mains.
The manufacturer disclaims all liability that may arise if
this regulation is not observed.
Cleaning the Unit
We recommend cleaning both inside and outside
surfaces of the unit at least twice a year. Disconnect the
power cord before any cleaning.
The following is indicated for this purpose:
•
Cleaning products:
Water and non-abrasive neutral
detergents. DO NOT USE SOLVENTS OR THINNERS.
•
Cleaning method:
Use a cloth or sponge soaked in a
suitable cleaning product to clean the inside and outside
parts of the cabinet.
•
Disinfection:
Do not use substances that can alter the
organoleptic characteristics of stored products.
•
Rinsing:
Use a cloth or sponge soaked in water. DO
NOT USE WATER JETS.
•
Frequency:
At least twice a year or at different intervals
depending on the type products stored.
Cleaning the Condenser
Failure to clean the condenser, as well as temperature
being too high in the environment in which it is installed,
is one of the main causes of difficult cabinet operation.
Cleaning must be carried out every 2-3 months, even in
the cleanest environments.
You must access the condenser coil, placed in all
models in the technical compartment near the
compressor, and clean it with one of the following:
•
Long bristle brush
•
Vacuum cleaner
•
Compressed air
In order to ensure optimal unit operation, follow the
manufacturer instructions, arranging for periodic
maintenance to be carried out by qualified technicians.

correct fastening of the guard.

back on the device.
