Caring for your appliance

Before doing any cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electricity (by pulling out the plug orturning off the general switch in your home).

Defrosting

The frost should be removed from the walls of the appliance periodically.

Never use sharp metal objects to remove frost because they could pierce the cooling circuit and damage the freezer beyong repair.

Use the plastic scraper provided for this purpose. To defrost the appliance completely (this should be done once or twice a year), turn off the green light and leave the door open until the frost has completely thawed.

A defrost water collection system is situated at the bottom of this appliance “D” as shown in figure 2.

To speed up defrosting, place one or more basins of warm water inside the appliance.

When defrosting, remove the frozen food from the appliance, wrap it in newspaper and store in a cool place. Since the rise in temperature will shorten the storage life of the food, it should be used as soon as possible.

Cleaning and maintenance

The refrigerator should be cleaned periodically with a solution of bicarbonate of soda and warm water. Never use abrasives, detergents or soaps; after washing, rinse with clean water and dry with care.

When these operations have been completed, turn on the green light and set the thermostat knob to the appropriate operating position.

After 2 or 3 hours, the appliance will once again be ready for preserving frozen and deep-frozen foods.

Trouble shooting

Green Light Off

Check that:

·there is no power failure

·the general switch or circuit breaker in your home is not disconnected

Red Light always On

Check that:

·the door is shut properly and that the door seals are not damaged;

·the thermostat temperature knob is on the correct setting;

·there is not too much frost on the inside walls.

Compressor operates continuously

Check that:

·the yellow light is not on (continuous operating function);

·the thermostat is in the correct position.

The appliance is noisy.

Check that:

·The appliance is perfectly level;

·The appliance has been installed between cabinets or other items that vibrate or are noisy.

·Remember that the refrigerating gas in the cooling circuit causes a slight bubbling sound, even when the compressor is not running (this is quite normal).

If after making these checks you still find your appliance doesn’t work properly, call a Service Centre, and describe the problem. Make sure that you know the model code and the relative numbers printed on the data plate located on the bottom left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper.

Never call unauthorized personnel and insist on the use of original spare parts.
