This warning light might come on for a brief period when:

a) the door is left open for an extended period of time (when the

freezer is being loaded or unloaded).

b) the SUPER FREEZE button has been pressed.

In these two cases, the fact that the warning light comes on does

not indicate that the freezer is malfunctioning or there is a defect.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect

the appliance from the electricity supply:

1. set the TEMPERATURE CONTROL knob on

2. pull the plug out of the socket

Cleaning the appliance

• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals

may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in

lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do

not use solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.

• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water

and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.

• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be

removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set

on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and

the plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which

are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator

and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be

covered or sealed properly.

• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period

of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

Defrosting the appliance

! Follow the instructions below.

Do not use objects with sharp or pointed edges to defrost the

appliance as these may damage the refrigeration circuit beyond

repair.

If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost

manually:

1. The day before defrosting, press the SUPER FREEZE button

(the yellow SUPER FREEZE indicator light illuminates) to

further cool the food.

2. After 24 hours set the TEMPERATURE CONTROL knob on

which will switch the refrigerator off.

3. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another

freezer or in a cool place.

4. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely.

This can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm

water in the freezer compartment.

5. Certain appliances are fitted with the DRAIN SYSTEM to lead the

water outside: let the water flow into a container (see diagram).

6. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before

switching the appliance on again.

7. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal storage

conditions have been restored, before placing food in the

freezer compartment.
