It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain
hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel
to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the
food inside. Use the special cleaner provided, which you
will find already inserted into the drain hole.
Defrosting the freezer
A certain amount of frost will always form on the
freezer shelves and around the top compartment.
Important! Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches
a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
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. When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thor-
oughly and refit the plug.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain the maximum
coldness and run the appliance for two or three hours
using this setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food into the com-
partment.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost
from the evaporator as you could damage it. Do not use
a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up
the thawing process other than those recommended by
the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage
life.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take
the following precautions:
• disconnect the appliance from electricity supply
• remove all food
