Care and Cleaning
Care and Cleaning
Internal cleaning
To clean the parts in steel use a microfiber cloth and the sponge pro-
vided in the kit with the appliance.
Always use the cloth and sponge in the direction of the steel’s satin finish.
Every now and then, to make to steel shiny, wipe with a slightly damp
microfiber cloth.
Do not use the sponge on aluminium parts, such as the handles and
the profiles of the glass shelves.
You should use special care to keep free of obstructions the ventilation
openings in the appliance or in the cabinet that houses it.
Scrupulously follow the detailed directions that
can be found in the provided kit and never
use abrasive or metallic products which could
scratch and damage the satin finishing on the
appliance permanently.
Before performing any sort of cleaning, disconnect
the appliance from the electrical power supply.
Make sure you do not damage the refrigerant
circuit in any way.
Do not bring cold glass parts into contact with
boiling water.
Do not wash any parts of the refrigerator in a
dishwashing machine since this could damage
or irreparably deform the parts.
Clean the internal and removable parts by washing them with a solu-
tion of lukewarm water, a small amount of dishwashing detergent and
a pinch of baking soda.
Rinse and dry right away.
Do not use mechanical devices or other methods to speed up defrosting.
The edges of the condenser are sharp, there-
fore use adequate protection for the hands and
arms when cleaning the condenser.
Do not use water on the electrical parts, lights
and control panel.
Condenser cleaning
A ventilation grille is located either at the top of the appliance or at the
bottom according to the model type.
A foam filter is placed behind the grille to protect from dust the ventila-
tion system.
To clean it use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment at maxi-
mum power, sweeping it along the vent slits. In case of a significant dust
build up, the ventilation grille can be removed to allow a more accurate
cleaning of the filter.
Take care also to check the condition of the finned condenser and clean
it from dust if needed.
Operate as follows:
Switch off the appliance by pressing the Unit button on the main
control panel for approx 3 seconds.
On models with ventilation at the base remove the grille at the bottom
(magnetically attached) and take it off. On models with ventilation lift the
grille as shown in the picture.
Thoroughly clean the grille and the foam filter, by means of a vacuum
cleaner and the soft brush attachment.
Wait approx 30 minutes, until the finned condenser cools down to room
temperature, then clean it thoroughly from any dust build up as shown in
the picture, taking care not to damage it.
Start up the appliance again, by pressing the Unit button on the main
control panel for approx 3 seconds.
