External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Remove the ventilation grille (see the section
"Removing the ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean
under the cabinet. Once or twice a year dust the
condenser (black grille) and the compressor at the
back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum
cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the
performance of the appliance and cause excessive
electricity consumption.
Defrosting the fridge
The fridge is defrosted automatically every time the
compressor stops. Frost formation can be prevented
by:
· not putting warm foodstuff inside the cabinet.
· avoiding frequently opening the door or keeping
it open too long.
· not placing foodstuffs directly against the cold
cooling plate.
To Change the Light Bulb
The light is switched on automatically when the
door is opened. Before replacing the light bulb,
disconnect the power plug from the outlet.
Press the spring together and pull the grille
downward at the same time.
Use a bulb of the same type, E14 socket, maximum
rating of 25 W.
When the appliance is not in use
Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.
Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the
doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
Something Not Working
Before contacting your local Service Force Centre check the following points:
Symptom
The temperature is too high inside the
refrigerator.
It is too cold inside the refrigerator.
There is water on the cooling plate inside
the refrigerator.
When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching
the floor.
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.
Set a lower temperature.
Put food products in the right place inside the refrigerator. See
the chapter "Temperature inside the refrigerator".
Distribute the food products to allow cold air to circulate
around them.
Make sure that the door is completely closed and that the
rubber door seal is complete and clean.
The temperature where the cabinet is placed is above normal
room temperature.
Set a warmer temperature.
Vegetables and other products that are easily frozen have been
placed on a "too cold" shelf. See the chapter "To start the fridge
and thermostat control".
This is normal. During automatic defrosting, frost thaws on the
cooling plate.
