8.2 Cleaning the freezer
Before cleaning, remove the plug from the electric socket (or turn off the master switch). To clean the
outside of the freezer, use water and a gentle liquid detergent only, or a detergent for general use on
washable surfaces (e.g. a detergent for use on glass). Do not use products containing abrasive or
aggressive substances for plastic or enamelled parts, or acids or chemical solvents. Use a sponge or a
soft cloth.
Do not use steam cleaners inside the freezer; we advise you to use gentle liquid detergents intended for
washable surfaces, ideally disinfectants, provided that they do not contain solvents or aggressive
substances and/or abrasive particles.
Please note that our Technical Support Centres can provide Smeg products specifically intended for
cleaning these appliances.
Remove the drawers, taking care not to force them out. Do not wash removeable plastic parts in the
dishwasher, just use lukewarm water and washing up liquid or a water and vinegar mixture.
To clean the seals, use lukewarm water and then dry them afterwards.
To ensure that the freezer functions properly, you will
also need to clean the condenser at the back
periodically, using a brush or a vacuum cleaner (1).
To clean the handle, use the same products as those
for cleaning the outside surfaces of your new product:
do not use paste or cream detergents, detergents for
steel or any that contain acidic substances or abrasive
particles as these products can cause the finish of the
part to become opaque and deteriorate.
8.3 Turning off the freezer
If the freezer is to remain unused for a long period, turn the thermostat selector to the symbol . Then
empty the drawers, disconnect the freezer from the electricity supply and, once it has defrosted, dry off
any residual moisture that may have accumulated. Leave the door ajar to ensure that moisture and
stagnant air do not cause unpleasant odours.
8.4 Practical energy saving advice
- Install the freezer in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources;
- Do not put hot food in the freezer. Wait until food and drinks have cooled to room temperature before
putting them in the freezer drawers;
- Keep the amount of time and the number of times the door is opened to a minimum to ensure that the
inside of the freezer does not warm up more than necessary;
- Clean the condenser (at the back of the freezer) periodically to prevent any loss of efficiency of the
appliance;
- Only use the rapid freeze function for as long as it is actually needed;
- If the freezer is unused for a long period, it is advisable to empty the appliance and turn it off.
