MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Prior to undertaking any maintenance operation, be sure to unplug the appliance from the wall socket as a safety precaution.
Clean the interior periodically with lukewarm water and some bicarbonate of soda; the cabinet exterior with a Silicone wax spray; the condenser and the motor compressor with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
The defrost water drain hole in the fridge compartment should be cleaned at regular intervals. To do this, use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted in the discharge hole (Fig. 13).
Replacing the interior light bulb
Prior to undertaking this operation, be sure to unplug the appliance from the wall socket as a safety precaution.
If the interior light does not come on when the door is opened, you will need to gain access to the interior light bulb. To do this, remove the bulb housing cover by unscrewing the screw and by sliding it out (Fig. 14). Check that the bulb is correctly screwed into its socket. If it is burnt out, replace with a similar bulb. The maximum rating of the bulb is indicated on the housing cover. Replace the cover by sliding it back in. Fasten it by means of the previously removed screw.

During periods when the appliance is not in use, take the following precautions:
unplug the appliance from the power supply; remove all foodstuffs from the appliance; clean the interior and all accessories;
leave the door ajar to facilitate the circulation of air in the interior of the cabinet so as to prevent unpleasant odours from accumulating in the appliance.
Spare bulbs can be obtained from your local ZANUSSI Service Centre.
SERVICING
Should service be required for this appliance, contact your local ZANUSSI Service Centre. Before requesting service the following simple checks may save you inconvenience and expense: If there are water drops on the bottom of the fridge compartment, check that the defrost water drain opening is not obstructed.
Check that the plug is firmly in the wall socket. Check that there is an electricity supply to the socket by plugging in another appliance and operating it.
If it is felt that the compressor may be faulty turn the thermostat knob to the coldest setting and, leaving the door open also for a few minutes, listen to check if the motor then runs and see if the
evaporator frosts over. If the motor still does not run or frost does not form on the evaporator contact your ZANUSSI Service Agent.
Please note that proof of purchase is required for any in- guarantee service calls.
