MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance before carrying out any 
maintenance operation.

Periodical cleaning

Wash the interior of the appliance with lukewarm 
water and sodium bicarbonate.
Clean cabinet outer surfaces with a silicone-wax 
spray.
The condenser and compressor should be cleaned 
using a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This latter 
operation will maintain the appliance’s excellent 
standards of performance and save energy.

Idle periods

During periods when the appliance is not used, you 
should take the following precautions:

remove the plug from the wall socket;

remove all food from the appliance;

defrost and clean the interior and all accessories;

leave the door slightly open, thus letting air 
circulate and preventing the formation of mould and 
unpleasant smells.

SOMETHING NOT WORKING

If the appliance is not functioning properly check 
that:

the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains 
power switch is on;

there is no power failure; the control knob is in the 
right position.

Furthermore:

if the appliance seems too noisy check that the sides 
are not touching furniture that can transmit or 
amplify a noise or a vibration. Also, check that the 
piping of the refrigerant system does not vibrate.

If your appliance is still not working properly after 
making the above checks, contact your local dealer 
or the nearest service center.

To obtain fast service, it is essential that when you apply 
for it you specify the model and serial number of your 
appliance which can be found inside the appliance at the 
bottom on the left hand side.
