(defrosting will occur automatically). In static appliances, the air

: with or without grill.
Due to the special guides the shelves are removable and the height
is adjustable (
see diagram), allowing easy storage of large
containers and food. Height can be adjusted without complete
removal of the shelf.
Using the refrigerator to its full potential
• Use the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to adjust the
temperature ( see Description).
• Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not hot
foods ( see Precautions and tips).
• Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods.
• Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase
humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.
Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the
appliance from the electricity supply.
It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
Cleaning the appliance
• The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals may
be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm
water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use
solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.
• The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water and
soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.
• The back of the appliance may collect dust which can be
removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set on
medium power. The appliance must be switched off and the plug
must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours
• The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which are
odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator and to
prevent the formation of stains, food must always be covered or
sealed properly.
• If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period of
time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.
Defrosting the appliance
! Follow the instructions below.
Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any devices or
tools other than the scraper provided, you may damage the
refrigeration circuit.
The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is
ducted to the back of the appliance by a special discharge outlet
(
see diagram) where the heat produced by the compressor causes
it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge hole regularly
so that the water can flow out easily.
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out the
plug from the electrical socket. Follow the instructions below.
Access the light bulb by removing the cover as indicated in the
diagram. Replace it with a similar light bulb within the power range
indicated on the cover (15W or 25W).
