CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Clean the air vents and condenser at the rear of the
appliance regularly with a vacuum cleaner or brush
• Clean the outside using a soft cloth
For long vacations
1. Empty the refrigerator and low temperature
compartments.
2. Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply.
3. Defrost the low temperature compartment, and clean and
dry both compartments.
4. Leave the doors open to prevent formation of unpleasant
odours.
• Avoid exposing the appliance to very high temperatures and direct sunlight and do not position it in
close proximity to heaters or cookers, since these increase energy consumption.
• Do not obstruct the appliance's air inlet or outlet vents.
• To defrost food, place it in the refrigerator, making best use of the cold temperature produced by the
frozen food.
• Restrict the frequency and duration of door opening as much as possible.
• Do not place hot food in the refrigerator compartment.
• Do not leave the low temperature compartment door open.
