Before carrying out any maintenance operations,
including those described in this book, unplug
the appliance from the mains supply.
Warning
This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore
only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Periodic cleaning
Clean the inside of the appliance and the accesso-
ries with a solution of lukewarm water and bicar-
bonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
The freezer compartment drawers can be removed
for washing. To remove the drawers, pull them out
until they reach the stop, then lift and withdraw them
from the guides. To refit the drawers, engage them in
the guides then, keeping them tilted, push them
inwards.
Defrosting of the refrigerator
To achieve automatic defrosting of the refrigerator,
the compressor must cut out from time to time. If the
bottom of the compartment becomes covered with
too much frost, turn the thermostat knob slowly
towards a warmer setting until the compressor starts
to cut out periodically.
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. Use
the special cleaner provided, which you will find
already inserted into the drain hole.
Important:
Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you could damage it.
Do not use a maechanical device or any artificial
means to speed up the thawing process other
than those recommended by the manufacturer.
