Replacing the interior light bulb
Prior to undertaking this operation, be sure to unplug
the appliance from the wall socket as a safety precaution.
If the interior light does not come on when the door
is opened, you will need to gain access to the
interior light bulb. To do this, remove the bulb
housing cover by unscrewing the screw and by
sliding it out (Fig. 14). Check that the bulb is
correctly screwed into its socket. If it is burnt out,
replace with a similar bulb. The maximum rating of
the bulb is indicated on the housing cover. Replace
the cover by sliding it back in. Fasten it by means of
the previously removed screw.

SERVICING
Should service be required for this appliance,
contact your local ZANUSSI Service Centre.
Before requesting service the following simple
checks may save you inconvenience and expense:
If there are water drops on the bottom of the fridge
compartment, check that the defrost water drain
opening is not obstructed.
Check that the plug is firmly in the wall socket.
Check that there is an electricity supply to the
socket by plugging in another appliance and
operating it.
If it is felt that the compressor may be faulty turn
the thermostat knob to the coldest setting and,
leaving the door open also for a few minutes, listen
to check if the motor then runs and see if the
evaporator frosts over. If the motor still does not
run or frost does not form on the evaporator contact
your ZANUSSI Service Agent.
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above
checks have been made as the engineer will make a
charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical
breakdown.
Please note that proof of purchase is required for any in-
guarantee service calls.
