Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with luke-
warm water and some neutral soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe clean
to ensure they are clean and free from debris.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly
perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to
clean the interior as this will damage the surface
and leave a strong odour.
Clean the compressor at the back of the appli-
ance with a brush. This operation will improve
the performance of the appliance and save
electricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners con-
tain chemicals that can attack/damage the plas-
tics used in this appliance. For this reason it is
recommended that the outer casing of this ap-
pliance is only cleaned with warm water with a
little washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the
mains supply.
Defrosting the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evapo-
rator of the refrigerator compartment every time
the motor compressor stops, during normal use.
The defrost water drains out through a drain
hole into a special container at the back of the
appliance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to peri-
odically clean the de-
frost water drain hole
in the middle of the
refrigerator compart-
ment channel to pre-
vent the water over-
flowing and dripping
onto the food inside.

Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form on the
freezer shelves and around the top compart-
ment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches
a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
To remove the frost, follow the instructions be-
low:
• switch off the appliance and pull out the plug
from the wall socket
• remove any stored food, wrap it in several lay-
ers of newspaper and put it in a cool place
• remove the freezer drawers
• put insulating material around the drawers,
e.g. blankets or newspapers.
Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls
with hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer.
• Leave the door open and insert the plastic
scraper in the appropriate seating at the bot-
tom centre, placing a basin underneath to
collect the defrosting water (the basin itself is
not included with the appliance)
• carefully scrape off the ice when it starts to
thaw (use a wood or a plastic scraper)
• when all the ice has melted, dry the interior
thoroughly and keep the scraper for future
use.
• switch on the appliance and replace the fro-
zen foodstuff.
If equipped, activate the Quick Chill function for
some hours so that it can reach the sufficient
storing temperature as soon as possible.
