CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
Before using the appliance for the first time, the
interior and all internal accessories should be
washed with lukewarm water and some neutral
soap to remove the typical smell of a brand-new
product, then dried thoroughly.
CAUTION! Do not use detergents,
abrasive powders, chlorine or oil-
based cleaners as they will damage
the finish.
PERIODIC CLEANING
CAUTION! Do not pull, move or
damage any pipes and/or cables
inside the cabinet.
CAUTION! Take care of not to
damage the cooling system.
CAUTION! When moving the cabinet,
lift it by the front edge to avoid
scratching the floor.
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean
to ensure they are clean and free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. If accessible, clean the condenser and the
compressor at the back of the appliance with a
brush.
Position the food so that air can circulate freely
around it.
Keep the food on all shelves no closer than 20 mm
from the rear wall and 15 mm from the door.
This operation will improve the performance of
the appliance and save electricity consumption.
DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIGERATOR
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every
time the motor compressor stops, during normal
use. The defrost water drains out through a trough
into a special container at the back of the
appliance, over the motor compressor, where it
evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the defrost water
drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator
compartment channel to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food inside.
PERIODS OF NON-OPERATION
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from electricity
supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Clean the appliance and all accessories.
4. Leave the door/doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
