• clean the inside and accessories with

warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5
ml to 0,5 liter of water)

• regularly check the door seals and wipe

clean to ensure they are clean and free
from debris

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not pull, move or damage any
pipes and/or cables inside the
cabinet.
Never use detergents, abrasive
powders, highly perfumed clean-
ing products or wax polishes to
clean the interior as this will dam-
age the surface and leave a
strong odour.

Once a year remove the ventilation grill at
the base of the appliance and clean the

air channels with a vacuum cleaner. This
operation will improve the performance of
the appliance and save electricity con-
sumption.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners

cleaned with warm water with a little
washing-up liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment
to the mains supply.

7.2 Defrosting of the refrigerator

P

F

Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator compart-
ment every time the motor compressor
stops, during normal use. The defrost wa-
ter drains out through a trough into a spe-
cial container at the back of the appli-
ance, over the motor compressor, where
it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the de-
frost water drain hole (F) situated under
the salad drawers to prevent the water
overflowing and dripping onto the food in-
side. Use the special cleaner provided (P),
which you will find already inserted into
the drain hole.
