Caring for Your Appliance
Before doing any cleaning, disconnect the appliance
from the electricity (by pulling out the plug or turning
off the general switch in your home).
Defrosting
WARNING: do not damage the refrigeration circuit.
Do not use mechanical devices or other tools to speed
up the defrosting process, unless they have been rec-
ommended by the manufacturer.
The evaporator defrosts automatically during operation; the
defrost water drips into the drain, is collected in a special
tray and then evaporates.
Clean the defrost water drain hole periodically (see fig. 1) to
prevent water from collecting on the bottom of the refrig-
erator instead of flowing out.

Cleaning and Maintenance
- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic, odourless
materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed
containers to store foods in order to prevent spills, stains
and the formation of difficult to remove odours.
- Only use a water and bicarbonate solution to clean the
applianc. Clean the internal and exterior of your appliance
with a sponge soaked in a warm water and sodium bicarbo-
nate solution, which is also a good disinfectant. If you do
not have any sodium bicarbonate at home, use a neutral
soap.
- What not to use: Do not use abrasive detergents, bleach
or detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based
products.
- All removable parts can be cleaned by soaking them in hot
soapy water or detergent. Remember to dry them thoroughly
before replacing them.
- Discontinued use of the appliance: If the appliance is not in
use for any length of time, remember to clean the interior
and dry thoroughly, leaving the door open to prevent the
formation of odours and mould.
- Replacing the light bulb. The bulb for lighting the interior
of the appliance is located at the back of the thermostat
box. Unscrew the burned out bulb and replace it with an-
other bulb with a wattage no higher than 15 Watt, follow
the instructions illustrated in fig. 2.
Before carrying out this operation, disconnect the appli-
ance from the electricity (to do so, turn off the general switch
in the house or remove the plug for the appliance from the
socket).
