Periodic cleaning
Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance
as it may get damaged. Clean the inside with warm
water and bicarbonate of soda. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
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.
An accumulation of dust will affect the performance of
the appliance and cause excessive electricity
consumption.
The structure of the appliance permits cleaning of 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.
Interior light

be reached as follows:
1. unscrew the light cover securing screws;
2. unhook the moving part by pressing it as shown in
the figure.
If the door is open and the light does not come on,
check that the bulb is properly screwed in; if it still
does not work, replace the bulb with one of the same
power.
The maximum rating is shown on the light cover.
