CARING FOR YOUR APPLIANCE

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

Defrosting

WARNING: do not damage the refrigeration circuit. Do not use mechanical devices or instruments other than those recommended by the manufacturer to speed up the defrosting process.

How to Defrost the Refrigerator

This appliance defrosts automatically and the condensed water is channelled to the back of the appliance toward the drain installed for this purpose (fig. 3). Here, the heat pro- duced by the compressor will make it evaporate. The only thing you must do is to periodically check and clean the hole of the drain, which is located behind the fruit and vegetable crisper, keeping it clear so that the water drains properly.

How to Defrost the Freezer

-Remember to regularly remove the frost with the scraper provided (do not use knives or metal objects).

-If the frost is more than 5 mm thick, the freezer should be defrosted.

Proceed as follows:

-Turn the temperature control (A) to the setting.

-Then wrap all the frozen and fast-frozen food in news paper, placing it either in the refrigerator or in a cool place.

-Leave the freezer door open so that the frost thaws completely.

-You can speed this process by placing containers of warm water in the compartment.

The unit is provided with a system which allows the defrost water to be collected in a container, the container should be placed beneath the unit (see figs. 4 and 5).

Cleaning and Special Maintenance

Before cleaning the appliance, first switch off and remove the plug from the socket.

-Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic, odourless materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed containers to store foods, in order to prevent spills which could stain and cause unpleasant, difficult to remove odours.

-Use a water and bicarbonate solution to clean the appli- ance. Cean the interior and exterior with a sponge soaked in warm water and a sodium bicarbonate solution, which is, among other things, a good disinfectant. If you do not have any in the house, you can use a neutral soap.

-DO NOT use abrasive detergents, bleach or deterents con- taining ammonia. NEVER use solvent based products.

-All removable parts should be taken out and soaked in warm soapy water or detergent. Rinse and dry them thoroughly before putting them back in the appliance.

-When the appliance is not used for a long time, remember to clean the interior and dry thoroughly, leave the doors open to prevent the formation of mould and unpleasant odors.

-Replacing the light bulb. The bulb for lighting the interior of the refrigerator is located at the back of the thermostat box. When replacing the lamp, unplug the appliance from the elec- trical socket, unscrew the burned out lamp and replace it with another with a wattage no higher than 15W (fig. 6).
