Removing the baskets
For a more thorough cleaning of the appliance or for removing foods
which may have fallen on the back of the baskets, these can be
removed, giving a better accessibility inside the appliance.
To remove the baskets proceed as follows:
1. Open the drawer and switch the appliance off, following the
procedure in the section “Cleaning the appliance”.
2. Remove all food, beverages and accessories from the drawers; this
will make the drawer lighter, facilitating the removal operation.
Facing the appliance, hold the top edges of both sides of the basket
(halfway down the length).
3. Lift the basket, releasing it from the hooks (hooks “A”).
4. Push the basket inside the appliance.
5. Use a rotation movement to lift the front of the drawer and pull out
(when removing the upper basket pay attention not to hit the
control panel).
To replace the basket follow the reverse procedure.
NOTE: Before placing accessories and foods back, ensure that the
hooks “A” are correctly placed.
The above procedure should be followed for both baskets.
Antibacterial filter (if provided)
The product is fitted with an antibacterial filter, on the left side of the
top drawer’s back wall, which ensures a high level of hygiene inside the
refrigeration compartment, through a continuous purification of the air.
The filter has a life span of 6 months and after this period will need to
be replaced. At every opening, the letters “AF” will temporarily appear
on the display (2), indicating that the filter is no longer effective. Filter
replacements can be obtained from the Customer Service Centre. The
procedure to replace the filter is explained on the packing. After
replacing the filter press the Acoustic Alarm button (6) for 3 seconds.
The system will be reset to the initial condition and the display (2)
indication will not reappear when opening the drawer again. The
warning to replace the filter will come on at six month intervals.
Replacement of the filter is not covered by warranty.
Note:
In high humidity conditions (normal during the summer months or in
extremely humid environments), external condensation could appear
on the lower drawer seals.
Using a soft cloth, remove this condensation on the seals and if necessary on the front of the drawer, and
activate the “Tropical” function on the control panel (8).
The function is activated when the yellow light (7) is on. To deactivate, press the same button again.
If the refrigerator is not used for prolonged periods, it is advisable to leave the drawers open to
prevent the formation of mould, odours and oxidation.
