7.4 Periodic cleaning

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 clean to ensure they are clean
and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

the compressor at the back of the
appliance with a brush.
This operation will improve the
performance of the appliance and
save electricity consumption.

WARNING!

food inside from spoiling in
case of a power failure.

7.6 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.

7.7 Defrosting the freezer

The freezer compartment is frost free. This
means that there is no build up of frost
when it is in operation, neither on the
internal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the
continuous circulation of cold air inside the
compartment, driven by an automatically
controlled fan.
