Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply: It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

Cleaning the appliance

•The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.

•The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.

•The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and the plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

•The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or sealed properly.

•If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

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:

1.Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position.

2.Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another freezer or in a cool place.

3.Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water in the freezer compartment.

4.Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before switching the appliance on again.

5.Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal storage conditions have been restored, before placing food in the freezer compartment.
