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.
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.
Defrosting the freezer
CAUTION! Never use sharp
metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you
could damage it. Do not use a
mechanical device or any
artificial means to speed up the
thawing process other than
those recommended by the
manufacturer. A temperature
rise of the frozen food packs,
during defrosting, may shorten
their safe storage life.
About 12 hours prior to
defrosting, set a lower
temperature, in order to build up
sufficient chill reserve for the
interruption in operation.
A certain amount of frost will always form
on the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance, or pull out the
electrical plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in
several layers of newspaper and put it in
a cool place.
WARNING! Do not touch
frozen food with wet hands.
Hands can freeze to the
goods.
3. Leave the door open and protect the
floor from the defrosting water e.g. with
a cloth or a flat vessel.
In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in
the freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice with an ice scraper
before defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the
interior thoroughly.
5. Switch on the appliance.
Wait at least 3 hours before putting the
food back into the freezer compartment.
