MAINTENANCE
Prior to undertaking any maintenance operation, be
sure to unplug the appliance from the wall socket as a
safety precaution.
Periodical cleaning
Clean the interior periodically with lukewarm
water and some sodium bicarbonate;
clean the cabinet exterior with a silicone wax spray;
clean the condenser and the motor compressor with
a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
This will improve the appliance operation,
consequently reducing power consumption.
Idle periods
During periods when the appliance is not in use,
take the following precautions:
unplug the appliance from the power supply;
remove all foodstuffs from the appliance;
clean the interior and all accessories;
leave the doors ajar to facilitate the circulation of
air in the interior of the cabinet so as to prevent
unpleasant odours from accumulating in the
appliance.
SERVICING
If the appliance is not functioning properly check
that:
the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains
power switch is on;
there is no power failure;
the control knob is in the right position.

The light inside the refrigerator compartment is
easy to get at through the opening in the light
holder.
If the light does not go on when the door is open,
check that it is screwed into place properly.
If it still does not light up, change the bulb. The
rating is shown on the light bulb cover.

Furthermore:
if the appliance seems too noisy check that the sides
are not touching furniture that can transmit or
amplify a noise or a vibration. Also, check that the
refrigerant unit does not vibrate.
If your appliance is still not working properly after
making the above checks, contact your local dealer
or the nearest service center.
To obtain fast service, it is essential that when you
apply for it you specify the model and serial number of
your appliance which can be found on the warranty
certificate or on the rating plate on the bottom left
side of the appliance.
