Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to

disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:

It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment

knobs on 0 (appliance off) to eliminate all electrical

contact.

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 door

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.

The refrigerator has an

automatic defrosting

function: water is ducted

to the back of the

appliance by a special

discharge outlet (see

diagram) where the

heat produced by the

compressor causes

it to evaporate. It is

necessary to clean the discharge hole regularly so that

the water can flow out easily.

Defrosting the freezer compartment

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

defrost manually:

1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position

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

freezer or in a cool place.

3. 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.

4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before

switching the appliance on again.

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

storage conditions have been restored, before

placing food in the freezer compartment.

Replacing the light bulb

To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator

compartment, pull out the plug from the electrical

socket. Follow the instructions below.

Access the light bulb by removing the cover as

indicated in the diagram.

Replace it with a

similar light bulb within

the power range

indicated on the cover

(10W ).
