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 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
goods with wet hands. Hands can
freeze to the goods.
3. Leave the door open.
In order to speed up the defrosting process,
place a pot of warm water in the freezer
compartment. In addition, remove pieces of ice
that break away before defrosting is complete.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the interior
thoroughly and keep the scraper for future use.
5. Switch on the appliance.
After three hours reload the previously removed
food into the freezer compartment.
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. Defrost (if necessary) and clean the appliance
and all accessories.
4. Clean the appliance and all accessories.
5. Leave the door/doors open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
