CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the appliance
A special antibacterial protection on the
appliance's interior walls prevents bacterial
growth and keeps them clean. They must
nevertheless be cleaned regularly in order to
keep them in good condition.
Cleaning the outside of the appliance
• The appliance may be cleaned with water
or alcohol-based liquid detergents (e.g.
window cleaning products).
• Avoid aggressive detergents and rough
sponges in order not to damage the
surfaces.
• Use a soft brush to remove dust and fume
deposits from the condenser on the rear of
the appliance.
• Clean the tank above the compressor.
Cleaning the inside of the appliance
• Clean the inside of the appliance with
diluted liquid detergent and warm water,
adding a little bit of vinegar.
• The door balconies and shelves can be
removed: tap them upwards with your fist,
first on one side and then on the other in the
insertion zone.
• Remove any ice thicker than 3-5 mm. Do not
use sharp objects or spray products.
Defrosting
Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator/freezer compartment does not
require defrosting, as any ice which forms on the
refrigeration plate will melt when the
compressor is switched off. The defrosting
process is automatic.
Defrost water is channelled directly into the
dedicated pan on the back of the appliance,
which lets it evaporate by means of the heat
generated by the compressor.
Interior lighting
Interior lighting, if damaged, must be repaired
See General safety instructions.
Occasional presence of frost inside the
freezer compartment is normal.
Do not use electrical appliances (e.g.
hair dryers) or sprays for defrosting, the
plastic parts could be damaged.
