Care and cleaning

Caution! Unplug the appliance before
carrying out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in
its cooling unit; maintenance and re-
charging must therefore only be carried
out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with
warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml
to 0,5 liter of water)
• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products or wax
polishes to clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a strong odour.
Once a year remove the ventilation grill at the
base of the appliance and clean the air chan-
nels with a vacuum cleaner. This operation
will improve the performance of the appli-
ance and save electricity consumption.
Caution! Take care of not to damage
the cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason it is recommended that the outer cas-
ing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to
the mains supply.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops, dur-
ing 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 (F) situated under the salad
drawers to prevent the water overflowing and
dripping onto the food inside. Use the special
cleaner provided (P), which you will find al-
ready inserted into the drain hole.
Cleaning the air channels
1. Remove the plinth (1), then the ventilation
grille (2);
2. Clean the ventilation grille.
3. Carefully pull the air deflector out (3),
checking that there is no water left from
the defrosting.
4. Clean the lower part of the appliance with
a vacuum cleaner.
