(GLOVESANDMASK)WHENCARRYING OUTANY MAINTENANCEOPERATION.

ATTENTION:

do not touch the appliance if hands and/or feet are wet. Before performing any cleaning or maintenance disconnect the appliance from the electrical source and carefully unplug the appliance. Do not remove safety guards. Wear protective gloves when cleaning the condenser. Do not use scissors, screwdrivers and sharp objects on the cooling circuit.

D.2.1PERIODICCLEANINGOFCONDENSER

Periodic cleaning of the condenser unit depends on the fre- quency of use of the appliance. The condenser must be cleaned periodically to ensure the efficient operation of the appliance and its continued high performance over time. It is

DANGEROUS AND UNADVISEABLE to remove the safety guards. It is advisable to thoroughly clean the condenser slits of the refrigerating unit at least once a month in a dusty envi- ronment or once every three months in a closed and clean environment. The condenser can be cleaned with a brush, provided the bristles are not made of steel or a material that can compromise good operation, or a vacuum cleaner to re- move the dirt. Take maximum care not to bend the condenser fins, as this would cause a reduction in the heat exchange. Do not use pointed objects, as they may damage the condenser.

ATTENTION: the condenser is installed on the top of the appliance. Do not clean the appliance with jets of water.

D.3 TROUBLESHOOTING

D.3.1 QUICK TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

In some cases faults can be remedied easily and quickly. Below there is a list of possible faults and remedies:

A. The appliance does not start:

-check that the plug is properly inserted into the socket.

-check that there is voltage at the socket.

B. The internal temperature is too high:

-check the thermostat setting;

-check for a heat source in the vicinity;

-check that the door closes properly.

C.The appliance is excessively noisy:

-check that the appliance is standing level. A lopsided appliance could set off vibrations.

-check that the appliance is not touching other appliances or parts which could resonate;

If the defect persists after having carried out the checks de- scribed above, contact the service center giving:

•the nature of the defect;

•the PNC (production code) of the appliance;

•the Ser. No. (serial number of the appliance).

Note: the code and the serial number are indispensable to be able to trace the type of appliance and the date of manufacture.

D.4 WASTE DISPOSAL AND DEMOLITION

D.4.1WASTESTORAGE

At the end of the appliance’s working life, make sure it is dis- posed of properly. Make sure you remove the doors before scrapping the appliance.

Special waste materials can be stored temporarily while await- ing processing for disposal and/or permanent disposal. In any event, the binding environmental protection laws in the country of use must be observed.

D.4.2 PROCEDUREFORPRELIMINARYDISMANTLINGOF THEAPPLIANCE

All countries have different legislation; provisions laid down by the laws and the authorized bodies of the countries where demolition takes place are therefore to be observed.

In general terms, the refrigerator must be taken to a special- ized collection/demolition center.

Dismantle the refrigerator and group the components together according to their chemical characteristics (plastic parts are marked with letters identifying the material). Bear in mind that the compressor contains lubricant oil and coolant, which can be recycled, and that the refrigerator components are classed as special waste that cannot be disposed of as urban waste. Make the appliance unusable by cutting off the power supply cable and removing the door and or locking mechanisms in order to avoid the risk of anyone becoming trapped inside.

DISMANTLING OPERATIONS MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
