DEFROSTING
The refrigerator automatically defrosts every time the
compressor stops. The water is discharged, via the
pipe, into a tray located at the back of the appliance
above the compressor, where it evaporates.
Important
To avoid defrost water overflowing and drip-
ping onto the food in the fridge, periodically
clean the water discharge hole (F) situated
under the vegetable drawers. Use the spe-
cial cleaner provided (P) which you will find
already inserted into the discharge hole

Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried
out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the ELEC-
TRICITY supply.
Internal cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water
and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NEVER USE DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE POW-
DERS, HIGHLY PERFUMED CLEANING PROD-
UCTS OR WAX POLISHES, TO CLEAN THE INTE-
RIOR AS THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE
AND LEAVE A STRONG SMELL.
Clean the drain hole of the water trough at regular
intervals and make sure that the drain hole is never
obstructed, so that the defrost water may flow freely.
Important
Do not use abrasive products.
Periodic cleaning
The appliance is equipped with an air inlet filter (1)
and an air outlet duct (2) on the ventilation grid.
Keep clean to guarantee good ventilation and good
working order of the appliance.
The filter can be removed and washed with water, as
follows:
1. Pinch flaps (a) and (b) with fingers
2. Pull the filter down.
3. Pull the filter out.
To replace the filter reverse the process.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
An accumulation of dust will affect the performance
of the appliance and cause excessive electricity con-
sumption.
The structure of the appliance permits to clean the
rear zone close to the wall, using a vacuum cleaner.
1. Remove the plinth (1), then the ventilation grid (2);
2. Carefully pull the air deflector out (3), checking
that there is no water left from the defrosting.
