Helpful hints and tips, Care and cleaning

Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room tem- perature, depending on the time available for this opera- tion.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.

Helpful hints and tips

Normal Operating Sounds

•You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing. This is correct.

•When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped around and you will hear a whirring sound and a pulsating noise from the compressor. This is correct.

•The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden crack- ing noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phe- nomenon. This is correct.

•When the compressor switches on or switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of the temperature regula- tor. This is correct.

Care and cleaning

Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cool- ing unit; maintenance and recharging must there-

fore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

•clean the inside and accessories with lukewarm wa- ter and some neutral soap.

•regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to en- sure they are clean and free from debris.

•rinse and dry thoroughly.

Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/ or cables inside the cabinet.

Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as this will damage the surface and leave a strong odour.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush or a vacuum clean- er. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.

Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chem- icals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this ap- pliance. For this reason it is recommended that the out-

er casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm wa- ter with a little washing-up liquid added.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.

Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor com- pressor stops, 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. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.

Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form on the freezer shelves and around the top compartment.
