Cleaning and maintenance

Regularly clean the appliance using a cloth and a
solution of warm water, with some soft detergent
suitable for cleaning the inside of the refrigerator
compartment. Do not use abrasive detergents or
tools. To ensure continuous and correct flow of
defrost water, regularly clean the inside of the
draining hole on the back of the refrigerator near the
fruit and vegetable drawer, using the tool provided
(see fig.1).
Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance
operation, unplug the appliance or disconnect it
from the power supply.

Defrosting the freezer compartment
The freezer should be defrosted once or twice a
year or when excessive frost is present (3 mm
thickness).
The formation of frost is normal. The amount and
rate at which frost accumulates depends on room
conditions and how often the door is open.
To defrost the unit, switch off the freezer compartment
or the whole appliance, depending on the model,
and remove all food products.
Clean the inside of the freezer. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Switch the freezer compartment, or the
whole appliance, back on and store the food inside.
Storing food
Wrap food so that no water, moisture or condensate
can enter; this will prevent odours or aromas going
from one part to another in the refrigerator, ensuring
better preservation of frozen foods.
Never place hot food in the freezer. Cooling hot
foods before freezing saves energy and prolongs
the life of the appliance.
If the appliance is not going to be used
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply,
remove all the food, defrost and clean. Leave the
doors open enough for air to circulate inside the
compartments. This will prevent the formation of
mould and bad odours.
In case of power failures
Keep the doors of the appliance closed. In this way
the stored food will stay cold as long as possible.
Do not refreeze partially thawed food, consume it
within 24 hours.
