Maintenance And Care - Indesit DBIAA 3xx F Operating Instructions Manual

• The maximum quantity of food that may be frozen daily is
GB
indicated on the plate containing the technical properties
located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment
(for example: Kg/24h: 4).
! To avoid blocking the air circulation inside the freezer
compartment, it is advisable not to obstruct the ventilation holes
with food or containers.
! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer
door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer,
ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.
! To maximise space inside the freezer, all drawers [with the
exception of the bottom drawer] can be removed from their
positions and the food placed directly on the racks/glass shelves
supplied [where present].

The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer drawers
ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes into contact
with the food placed inside the freezer compartment; furthermore,
the dripping of the water during filling is avoided (a lid to cover
up the hole after filling with water is also provided).
1. Pull out the tray by pushing it up. Check that the tray is completely
empty and fill it with water through the opening provided.
2. Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER LEVEL).
Excess water prevents the ice cubes from dispensing (if this
happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray).
3. Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each mould
fills with water (see diagram).
4. Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray back,
placing the top part in the corresponding housing and allowing
it to drop in again.
5. When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8 hours)
knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the outside so that
the ice cubes come loose and take them out through the opening.

Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect
the appliance from the electricity supply:
1. set the FREEZER OPERATION knob on
2. pull the plug out of the socket

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.

Thanks to the powerful light it emits, the new dual LED lighting

If the LEDs need to be replaced, please contact the Technical
Assistance Service.

Holiday function
To minimise energy usage when on holiday, it is not necessary to
switch the appliance off. The appliance has a function which allows
it to maintain the temperature of the refrigerator compartment at
approximately 12°C (which can also be used to conserve make-
up and beauty products). The freezer temperature must be set
to the minimum value in order to preserve the food.
To enable the function:
set the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob on HOLIDAY (see
diagram).
A double acoustic signal informs you when it has been enabled.
A single acoustic signal informs you when it has been disabled.
