CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
Before using the appliance for the first time, the
interior and all internal accessories should be
washed with lukewarm water and some neutral
soap to remove the typical smell of a brand-new
product, then dried thoroughly.
CAUTION! Do not use detergents,
abrasive powders, chlorine or oil-
based cleaners as they will damage
the finish.
CAUTION! The accessories and parts
of the appliance are not suitable for
washing in a dishwasher.
PERIODIC CLEANING
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and wipe them
clean to ensure they are clean and free from
debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
DEFROSTING OF THE APPLIANCE
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every
time the motor compressor stops, during normal
use. The defrost water drains out through a trough
into a special container at the back of the
appliance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
PERIODS OF NON-OPERATION
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
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 doors open to prevent unpleasant
smells.
