Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect
the appliance from the electricity supply.
It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

Cleaning the appliance

• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals
may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in
lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do
not use solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.
• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water
and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.
• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be
removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set
on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and
the plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours

• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which
are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator
and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be
covered or sealed properly.
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period
of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

Defrosting the appliance

! Follow the instructions below.
Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any devices or
tools other than the scraper provided, you may damage the
refrigeration circuit.
Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is
ducted to the back of the appliance by a special discharge outlet
( see diagram ) where the heat produced by the compressor
causes it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge
hole regularly so that the water can flow out easily.

Defrosting the freezer compartment
If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost
manually:
1. Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position
2. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another
freezer or in a cool place.
3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely.
This can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm
water in the freezer compartment.
4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before
switching the appliance on again.
5. Certain appliances are fitted with the DRAIN SYSTEM to lead
the water outside: let the water flow into a container ( see
diagram ).
6. Wait for approximately 2 hours, i.e. until the ideal storage
conditions have been restored, before placing food in the
freezer compartment.

Replacing the light bulb

To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out
the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the instructions below.
Access the light bulb by removing the cover as indicated in the
diagram. Replace it with a similar light bulb within the power
