Energy Saving Tips

- Install the Appliance Correctly

This means that the appliance should be installed away from

heat sources or direct sunlight in a well ventilated room.

- Correct Temperature Settings

Set the refrigerator temperature knob to one of the middle

settings. Very cold temperature settings will not only

consume a great deal of energy but will neither improve nor

lengthen the storage life of the food. Excessively cold

temperatures may ruin vegetables, cold cuts and cheese.

- Do Not Overfill Your Appliance

Remember that proper storage of food requires good air

circulation. Overfilling your appliance will hamper proper air

circulation and overwork the compressor.

- Keep the Door Closed

Open the refrigerator only when necessary; remember that

every time you open the door most of the cold air will be

lost. To bring the temperature back to the proper level, the

motor must run for a considerable amount of time, consuming

a substantial amount of energy.

- Check the Seal on the Door

Keep the seal clean and soft so that it fits tightly against

the door to ensure that no cold air is lost.

- Never Put Food in the Refrigeror while Still

Hot

A container of hot food in the refrigerator will increase the

temperature significantly; allow food to cool to room tem-

perature before storing.

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

Models without an Ice Unit

The evaporator defrosts automatically during operation; the

defrost water drips into the drain, is collected in a special

tray and then evaporates.

Clean the defrost water drain hole periodically (see fig. 1) to

prevent water from collecting on the bottom of the refrigera-

tor instead of flowing out.

Models with an Ice Unit

It is advisable now and then to remove the frost which forms

on the evaporator.

Take care to not use sharp objects for this purpose since

they could pierce the refrigeration circuit and permanently

damage the appliance.

Proper cleaning is very important in order to guarantee that

the refrigerator operates efficiently and does not consume

excess energy needlessly.

To defrost the evaporator completely, turn the thermostat

knob to “ ” (fig. 2). The water from the frost will collect in

the special tray.

When finished, dry the tray and put it back in place.

To start the appliance again, turn the thermostat knob to

the appropriate setting.

Cleaning and Maintenance

- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic, odourless

materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed

containers to store foods in order to prevent spills, stains

and the formation of difficult to remove odours.

- Only use a water and bicarbonate solution to clean the

applianc. Clean the internal and exterior of your appliance

with a sponge soaked in a warm water and sodium

bicarbonate solution, which is also a good disinfectant. If

you do not have any sodium bicarbonate at home, use a

neutral soap.

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

or detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based

products.

- All removable parts can be cleaned by soaking them in

hot soapy water or detergent. Remember to dry them

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 door open to prevent the
