HOW TO DEFROST AND CLEAN THE

REFRIGERATOR

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, unplug the

appliance from the mains or disconnect the electrical

power supply.

Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is completely

automatic.

Droplets of water on the rear wall of the refrigerator

compartment indicate that the periodic automatic defrost cycle is

in progress.

The defrost water is automatically routed to a drain outlet and

into a container from which it evaporates.

Regularly clean the inside of the defrost water drain hole in order

to guarantee the constant and correct flow of defrost water.

Defrosting the low temperature compartment

Defrost the low temperature compartment once or t

wice

a year or when the ice formation is excessive.

It is perfectly normal for ice to form. The amount of ice

which forms and the rate at which it accumulates will

depends on room temperature and humidity, and on the

frequency with which the door is opened. Ice formation is

concentrated at the top of the compartment and does not

affect the efficiency of the appliance.

If possible, defrost the freezer when it is nearly empty.

• Remove the food from the freezer, wrap in newspaper and

group together in a cool place or in a portable cooler.

• Leave the door open to allow the frost to melt.

• Clean the interior with a sponge soaked in warm water

and/or neutral detergent. Do not use abrasive

substances.

• Rinse the interior and dry thoroughly.

• Put the food back into the freezer.

• Close the door.

• Plug in the appliance once again.

• Switch the appliance on.

• Periodically clean air vents and the condenser at the rear of the

appliance with a vacuum cleaner or a brush.

• Clean the outside using a soft cloth.

Prolonged disuse

1. Empty the refrigerator.

2. Disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

3. Defrost and clean the interior.

4. In the event of prolonged disuse, leave the door open to

prevent the formation of mould, odours and oxidation.

5. Clean the appliance.

• Clean the inside of the low temperature compartment (where

fitted) when defrosting.

• Periodically clean the inside of the refrigerator compartment

with a sponge dampened in warm water and/or neutral

detergent. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive

products.

• Clean the outside with a soft damp cloth.

Do not use abrasive products, scourers, stain-removers

(e.g. acetone, trichloroethylene) or vinegar.
