Important! Do not pull, move or damage
any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive powders,
highly perfumed cleaning products or wax
polishes to clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the
compressor at the back of the appliance
with a brush or a vacuum cleaner. This op-
eration will improve the performance of the
appliance and save electricity consumption.
Important! Take care of not to damage the
cooling system.
Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage
the plastics used in this appliance. For this
reason it is recommended that the outer cas-
ing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid
added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to
the mains supply.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compartment
every time the motor compressor stops, dur-
ing normal use. The defrost water drains
out through a trough into a special contain-
er at the back of the appliance, over the mo-
tor compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole in the middle of the re-
frigerator compartment channel to prevent
the water overflowing and dripping onto the
food inside. Use the special cleaner provi-
ded, which you will find already inserted in-
to the drain hole.

tent person must do the troubleshoot-
ing that is not in this manual.
10) If foreseen.
Defrosting of the freezer
The freezer compartment of this model, on
the other hand, is a "no frost" type. This
means that there is no buildup of frost
when it is in operation, neither on the inter-
nal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the continu-
ous circulation of cold air inside the compart-
ment, driven by an automatically controlled
fan.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long pe-
riods, take the following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
• remove all food
10)
• defrost
and clean the appliance and all
accessories
• leave the door/doors ajar to prevent un-
pleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask some-
body to check it once in a while to prevent
the food inside from spoiling in case of a
power failure.
Important! There are some sounds during
normal use (compressor, refrigerant
circulation).
