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 polishes

Once a year remove the ventilation grill at the base of the appliance and clean the air chan-
nels with a vacuum cleaner. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance
and save electricity consumption.

CAUTION!
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 washingup liquid added.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.

Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form on the freezer shelves and around the top com-
partment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thickness of about 35 mm.
To remove the frost, follow the instructions below:
1. Turn the Temperature regulator to the "0" setting and disconnect the mains plug from

the mains socket.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a cool

place.

3. Leave the door open.
4. Remove the three large drawers.
5. When defrosting is completed, remove the water that has collected in the small bottom

drawer and dry the interior thoroughly.

Insert the plug into the wall socket and turn the thermostat control to a medium setting.
After let the appliance run for at least two hours in the "Fast Freeze" mode, replace the
previously removed food into the compartments.
