Defrosting
The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time
the compressor stops.The water is discharged, via
the pipe, into a tray located below the appliance,
where it evaporates.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowing and
dripping onto the food in the fridge,
periodically clean the water discharge hole (F)
situated under the salad drawers. Use the
special cleaner provided (P) which you will
find already inserted into the discharge hole.
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried
out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the
ELECTRICITY supply.
Internal cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water
and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NEVER USE DETERGENTS,
ABRASIVE POWDERS, HIGHLY
PERFUMED CLEANING PRODUCTS
OR WAX POLISHES,TO CLEAN THE
INTERIOR AS THESE WILL DAMAGE
THE SURFACE AND LEAVE A
STRONG ODOUR.
When the appliance is not in
use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all
foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar
to prevent unpleasant smells.
