charging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

•clean the inside and accessories with luke- warm water and some neutral soap.

•regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure 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 dam- age 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 cleaner. This op- eration 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 chemicals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer cas- ing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water 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 compressor stops, dur- ing normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special contain- er at the back of the appliance, over the mo- tor compressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the de- frost water drain hole in the middle of the re- frigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provi- ded, which you will find already inserted in- to the drain hole.

Defrosting the freezer

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

Important! Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.

To remove the frost, do these steps:

1.Switch off the appliance.

2.Remove any stored food, wrap it in sev- eral layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place.

3.Leave the door open.

4.When defrosting is completed, dry the in- terior thoroughly and refit the plug.

5.Switch on the appliance.

6.Set the temperature regulator to obtain the maximum coldness and run the ap- pliance for two or three hours using this setting.

7.Reload the previously removed food into the compartment.

Important! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the evaporator as you could damage it. Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.
