Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.

Warning

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodical cleaning

Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance as it may get damaged.

Wash the interior of the appliance with lukewarm water and sodium bicarbonate.

Clean cabinet outer surfaces with a silicone-wax spray.

The condenser and compressor should be cleaned using a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This latter operation will maintain the appliance’s excellent standards of performance and save energy.

Idle periods

During periods when the appliance is not used, you should take the following precautions:

remove the plug from the wall socket;

remove all food from the appliance;

defrost and clean the interior and all accessories;

leave the door slightly open, thus letting air circulate and preventing the formation of mould and unpleasant smells.

SOMETHING NOT WORKING GB

If the appliance is not functioning properly check that:

the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains power switch is on;

there is no power failure; the control knob is in the right position.

Furthermore:

if the appliance seems too noisy check that the sides are not touching furniture that can transmit or amplify a noise or a vibration. Also, check that the piping of the refrigerant system does not vibrate.

If your appliance is still not working properly after making the above checks, contact your local dealer or the nearest service center.

To obtain fast service, it is essential that when you apply for it you specify the model and serial number of your appliance which can be found inside the appliance at the bottom on the left hand side.
