7. CARE AND CLEANING

CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before car-
rying out any maintenance oper-
ation.
This appliance contains hydrocar-
bons in its cooling unit; mainte-
nance and recharging must
therefore only be carried out by
authorized technicians.

7.1 Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regu-
larly:
• 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.
Do not pull, move or damage
any pipes and/or cables inside
the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed clean-
ing products or wax polishes to
clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a
strong odour.

7.2 Defrosting of the refrigerator

F P
Once a year remove the ventilation grill
at the base of the appliance and clean
the air channels with a vacuum cleaner.
This operation will improve the perform-
ance of the appliance and save electrici-
ty consumption.
CAUTION!
Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface clean-
ers contain chemicals that can attack/
damage the plastics used in this appli-
ance. 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 com-
partment every time the motor compres-
sor stops, during normal use. The de-
frost water drains out through a trough
into a special container at the back of
the appliance, over the motor compres-
sor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole (F) situated un-
der the salad drawers to prevent the wa-
ter overflowing and dripping onto the
food inside. Use the special cleaner pro-
vided (P), which you will find already in-
serted into the drain hole.
