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. 8.
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. 7). 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.
