• Once defrosted, food deteriorates
rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING! Refer to Safety
chapters.
General warnings
CAUTION! Unplug the
appliance before carrying out
any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains
hydrocarbons in its cooling unit;
maintenance and recharging
must therefore only be carried
out by authorized technicians.
The accessories and parts of
the appliance are not suitable
for washing in a dishwasher.

Periodic cleaning

CAUTION! Do not pull, move
or damage any pipes and/or
cables inside the appliance.
CAUTION! Do not damage the
cooling system.
The equipment has to be cleaned
regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral
soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and
wipe them clean to ensure they are
clean and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. If accessible, clean the condenser and
the compressor at the back of the
appliance with a brush.
This will improve the performance of
the appliance and save electricity
consumption.
• Do not exceed the storage period
indicated by the food manufacturer.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops,
during normal use. The defrost water
drains out through a trough into a special
container at the back of the appliance,
over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and dripping
onto the food inside.
Defrosting of the freezer
CAUTION! Never use sharp
metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you
could damage it. Do not use a
mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the
thawing process other than
those recommended by the
manufacturer. A temperature
rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.
