• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not pull, move or damage any

pipes and/or cables inside the

cabinet.

Never use detergents, abrasive

powders, highly perfumed clean-

ing 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. This operation will improve

the performance of the appliance and

save electricity consumption.

Take care of not to damage the

cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners

contain chemicals that can attack/dam-

age the plastics used in this appliance.

For this reason it is recommended that

the outer casing of this appliance is only

cleaned with warm water with a little

washing-up liquid added.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment

to the mains supply.

6.2 Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the

evaporator of the refrigerator compart-

ment every time the motor compressor

stops, during normal use. The defrost wa-

ter drains out through a trough into a spe-

cial container at the back of the appli-

ance, over the motor compressor, where

it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the de-

frost water drain hole in the middle of the

refrigerator compartment channel to pre-

vent the water overflowing and dripping

onto the food inside. Use the special

cleaner provided, which you will find al-

ready inserted into the drain hole.

6.3 Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will al-

ways form on the freezer shelves

and around the top compartment.

Defrost the freezer when the frost

layer reaches a thickness of about

3-5 mm.

To remove the frost, do these steps:

Switch off the appliance.

Remove any stored food, wrap it in

several layers of newspaper and put it

in a cool place.

Leave the door open.

When defrosting is completed, dry

the interior thoroughly and refit the

plug.

Switch on the appliance.

Set the temperature regulator to ob-

tain the maximum coldness and run

the appliance for two or three hours

using this setting.

Reload the previously removed food

into the compartment.

Never use sharp metal tools to

scrape off frost from the evapora-

tor as you could damage it. Do

not use a mechanical device or

any artificial means to speed up

the thawing process other than

those recommended by the man-

ufacturer. A temperature rise of

the frozen food packs, during de-

frosting, may shorten their safe

storage life.

6.4 Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long

periods, take the following precautions:

• disconnect the appliance from elec-

tricity supply

• remove all food

• defrost (if foreseen) and clean the appli-

ance and all accessories

• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-

pleasant smells.

If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some-

body to check it once in a while to pre-
