Keeping Your Appliance in Shape

Cleaning and maintenance

Always unplug the appliance from the mains before

cleaning.

- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic odourless

materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed

containers for strong smelling foods to avoid the formation

of odours that are difficult to remove.

- Use only a water and bicarbonate solution: Clean the

internal and exterior of your appliance with a sponge soaked

with a warm water and sodium bicarbonate solution, which

is also a good disinfectant. If you do not have any sodium

bicarbonate at home, use neutral detergent.

- What not to use: Do not use abrasive detergents, bleach

or detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based

products.

- Dishwashable: All the removable parts can be cleaned by

soaking in hot soapy water or detergent. If you own a

dishwasher, you may wash these parts in the dishwasher.

Remember to dry thoroughly before replacing them.

- Discontinued use of the appliance: If the appliance is not in

use for any length of time, remember to clean the interior

and dry thoroughly, leaving the doors open to prevent the

formation of bad odours and mould.

- Replacing the light bulb. The bulb for lighting the interior

of the appliance is located at the back of the thermostat

box. Unscrew the burnt bulb and replace it with another

bulb of no more than 15 Watt, follow the instructions

illustrated in fig. 5.

Before doing any cleaning, disconnect the appliance

from the electricity (by pulling out the plug or turning

off the general switch in your home).

Defrosting

WARNING: do not damage the refrigeration circuit.

Do not use mechanical devices or other tools to speed

up the defrosting process, unless they have been rec-

ommended by the manufacturer.

How to Defrost the Refrigerator

This appliance defrosts automatically and the water is

channeled to the back toward the drain installed for this

purpose (fig. 4). Here, the heat produced by the compressor

will make it evaporate. The only thing you must do is to

periodically check and clean the hole of the drain, which is

located behind the vegetable crispers, so that the water

drains properly.

How to Defrost the Freezer

- Every so often, remove the frost with the scraper provided

with the appliance (do not use knives or metal objects).

- If the frost is more than 15 mm thick, the freezer must be

defrosted.

Proceed as follows: turn the thermostat knob (A) to the ·

setting . Then wrap all the frozen and fast-frozen food in

newspaper, placing it either in the refrigerator or in a cool

place. Leave the freezer door open so that the frost thaws

completely. You can speed this process by placing contain-

ers of warm water in the compartment.
