7. CARE AND CLEANING
7.1 Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first
time, wash the interior and all internal
accessories with lukewarm water and
some neutral soap so as to remove the
typical smell of a brand-new product,
then dry thoroughly.
W ARNING!
Do not use detergents or
abrasive powders, as these will
damage the finish.
C AUTION!
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.
7.2 Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned
regularly:
• Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral
soap.
7.3 Defrosting the refrigerator
• Regularly check the door seals and
wipe clean to ensure they are clean and
free from debris.
• Rinse and dry thoroughly.
W ARNING!
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.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush. This operation will improve
the performance of the appliance and
save electricity.
WARNING!
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.
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 drain hole 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.
Use the special cleaner provided, which you
will find already inserted into the drain hole.
