Defrosting the appliance

!Follow the instructions below.

Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any devices or tools other than the scraper provided, you may damage the refrigeration circuit.

Defrosting the refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is ducted to the back of the appliance by a special

discharge outlet (see diagram) where the heat produced by the compressor causes it to

evaporate. It is necessary

to clean the discharge hole regularly so that the water can flow out easily.

Defrosting the freezer compartment

Remove frost regularly using the special scraper provided. If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost manually.

If the frost is more than 5 mm thick, then you must defrost the freezer completely. Proceed as follows: one day before enabling the SUPER FREEZE function in the 24-hour mode; it helps give the food a healthy extra "cold shock". After 24 hours, the freezing function is automatically disabled but you can disable it yourself. Turn the appliance off by turning the appliance ON/OFF knob. WARNING: this operation switches off the whole appliance (including the fridge compartment).

Wrap all frozen foods in newspaper and place them either in another refrigerator or in a cool place. Leave the door open, so as to allow all the frost to melt completely, helping it along with containers filled with lukewarm water.

Clean and dry thoroughly before restarting the appliance. Remember that the motor will not start immediately, but rather after approximately 8 minutes.

Replacing the light bulb

To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the instructions below.

Access the light bulb (A) by unscrewing the fixing screw

(B)which is located at the back of the lampcover, as shown (see diagram). Replace it with a similar light bulb, the power of which should not exceed 15W.
