clean the inner side of the appliance.
Prevent damage to the cooling system.
Important! There is no need to clean the
compressor area.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason it is recommended that the outer cas-
ing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
Defrosting the freezer
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer rea-
ches a thickness of about 10-15 mm.
The best time to defrost the freezer when it
contains no or only a little food.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in sev-
eral layers of newspaper and put it in a
cool place.
3. Leave the lid open , remove the plug from
the defrost water drain and collect all de-
frost water on a tray. Use a scraper to re-
move ice quickly.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the in-
terior thoroughly and refit the plug.
What to do if...
Caution! Before troubleshooting,
disconnect the power supply.
Only a qualified electrician or competent
person must do the troubleshooting that
is not in this manual.
Problem
The appliance is noisy
The compressor operates
continually
Possible cause
The appliance is not supported
properly
The temperature is not set cor-
rectly.
The lid has been opened too fre-
quently
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the ap-
pliance for two or three hours using this
setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food into
the compartment.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost as you could damage the
appliance. 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 pe-
riods, take the following precautions:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
3. Remove all food.
4. Defrost and clean the appliance and all
accessories.
5. Leave the lid 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.
Important! There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
Check if the appliance stands sta-
ble (all the four feet should be on
the floor)
Set a warmer temperature
Do not leave the lid open longer
than necessary
