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.

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 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 refriger- ator 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.
Periods of non-operation

•disconnect the appliance from elec- tricity supply
•remove all food
•defrost 3)and clean the appliance and all accessories
•leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un- pleasant smells.
