to remove the typical smell of a brand-

The accessories and parts of
the appliance are not

7.2 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 them clean to ensure they are
clean and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
7.3 Defrosting of the
refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator
compartment 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.
For this purpose use the tube cleaner
provided with the appliance.

7.4 Defrosting of 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.
7.5 Replacing the CleanAir filter
The CleanAir filter is an active carbon
filter which absorbs bad odours and
permits to maintain the best flavour and
aroma for all foodstuffs without risk of
odour cross contamination.
The air filter should be
handled carefully to prevent
its surface from being
scratched.
On delivery, the carbon filter
is in a plastic bag to
preserve performance. Place
the filter in the slot before
activating the appliance.
1. Open the drawer.
2. Pull out the exhausted air filter.
3. Insert the new air filter in the slot.
4. Close the drawer.
To get the best performance the drawer
should be placed properly and the
CleanAir filter should be changed once
every year.
The air filter is a consumable
accessory and as such is not
covered by the guarantee.
New active air filters can be
purchased from your local
dealer. To change the air
filter repeat the procedure.
