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.

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 several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool place.

3.Leave the door open.

4.When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thor- oughly and refit the plug.

5.Switch on the appliance.

6.Set the temperature regulator to obtain the maxi- mum coldness and run the appliance for two or three hours using this setting.

7.Reload the previously removed food into the com- partment.

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.

Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take the following precautions:

1.disconnect the appliance from electricity supply

2.remove all food

3.defrost and clean the appliance and all accessories

4.leave the door/doors open to prevent unpleasant smells.

Important! If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to check it once in a while to prevent the food inside from spoiling in case of a power failure.
