8. CARE AND CLEANING

CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before carry-
ing out any maintenance operation.
This appliance contains hydrocar-
bons in its cooling unit; mainte-
nance and recharging must there-
fore only be carried out by author-
ized technicians.
8.1 Periodic cleaning
1.
Switch off the appliance.
2.
Disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
3.
Regularly clean the appliance and the
accessories with warm water and neu-
tral soap. Clean the lid seal carefully.
4.
Fully dry the appliance.
5.
Connect the mains plug to the mains
socket.
6.
Switch on the appliance.
CAUTION!
Do not use detergents, abrasive
products, highly perfumed cleaning
products or wax polishes to clean
the inner side of the appliance.
Prevent damage to the cooling sys-
tem.
There is no need to clean the com-
pressor 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
casing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
8.2 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
several layers of newspaper and put it
in a cool place.
3.
Leave the lid open , remove the plug
from the defrost water drain and col-
lect all defrost water on a tray. Use a
scraper to remove ice quickly.
4.
When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly and refit the plug.
5.
Switch on the appliance.
6.
Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the
appliance for two or three hours using
this setting.
7.
Reload the previously removed food in-
to the compartment.
Never use sharp metal tools to
scrape off frost as you could dam-
age the appliance. Do not use a
mechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing
process other than those recom-
mended by the manufacturer. A
temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may
shorten their safe storage life.
The amount of frost on the walls of
the appliance will be increased by
the high level of the outer environ-
ment humidity and if the frozen
food is not wrapped properly.
8.3 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, 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 unpleas-
ant smells.
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.
