• Lean foods store better and longer than fat-
ty ones; salt reduces the storage life of food.
• Water ices, if consumed immediately after
removal from the freezer compartment, can
possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt.
• It is advisable to show the freezing in date
on each individual pack to enable you to
keep tab of the storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this ap-
pliance, you should:
• Make sure that the commercially frozen
foodstuffs were adequately stored by the
retailer.
Care and cleaning
Caution! Before carrying out any
maintenance operation, disconnect the
power supply.
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its
cooling unit; maintenance and recharging
must therefore only be carried out by author-
ized technicians.
Warning! The accessories and parts of
the appliance are not suitable for
washing in a dishwasher.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
• clean the inside and accessories with luke-
warm water and some neutral soap.
• regularly check the door seals and wipe
clean to ensure they are clean and free from
debris.
• rinse and dry thoroughly.
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 pol-
ishes to clean the interior as this will damage
the surface and leave a strong odour.
Clean the condenser (black grill) and the com-
pressor at the back of the appliance with a
brush or a vacuum cleaner. This operation will
improve the performance of the appliance and
save electricity consumption.
• Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are trans-
ferred from the foodstore to the freezer in
the shortest possible time.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than absolutely necessary.
• Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly
and cannot be refrozen.
• Do not exceed the storage period indicated
by the food manufacturer.
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 casing 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 re-
frigerator
compart-
ment 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 refriger-
ator compartment channel to prevent the wa-
ter overflowing and dripping onto the food in-
side. Use the special cleaner provided, which
you will find already inserted into the drain
hole.
