Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first time,

the interior and all internal accessories

should be washed with lukewarm water

and some neutral soap to remove the

typical smell of a brand-new product, then

dried thoroughly.

Caution! Do not use detergents

or abrasive powders, as these

will damage the finish.

Initial power on

Caution! Before inserting the

power plug in to the outlet and

switching on the cabinet for the

first time, leave the appliance

standing upright for at least 4

hours. This will assure a sufficient

amount of time for the oil to

return to the compressor.

Otherwise the compressor or

electronic components may

sustain damage.

Periodic cleaning

Caution! Do not pull, move or

damage any pipes and/or

cables inside the cabinet.

Caution! Do not 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

energy consumption.

The lowest shelf, dividing the cooler

compartment from the rest of the cabinet,

can be removed only for cleaning. Pull out

the shelf straight to remove it. The cover

plates above the drawers in the

compartment can be taken out for cleaning.

To ensure the best performance

of Low Temperature

Compartment, the lowest shelf

and cover plates must be put

back in their original position

after cleaning.

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. Clean the appliance and all accessories.

4. Leave the door/doors open to prevent

unpleasant smells.

Warning! If you want to keep the

appliance switched on, ask

somebody to check it once in a

while to prevent the food inside

from spoiling in case of a power

failure.

We recommend activating

Vacation function.

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
