thorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
• 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
damage the surface and leave a strong
odour.
Once a year remove the ventilation grill at
the base of the appliance and clean the air
channels with a vacuum cleaner. This oper-
ation will improve the performance of the
appliance and save electricity consumption.
Important! 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
casing 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 re-
frigerator compart-
ment every time the
motor compressor
stops, during normal
use. The defrost wa-
ter drains out
through a trough into
a special container at the back of the appli-
ance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole (F) situated under the
salad drawers to prevent the water over-
flowing and dripping onto the food inside.
Use the special cleaner provided (P), which
you will find already inserted into the drain
hole.
