CLEANING:
WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF A POWER OUTAGE:
âž Switch off the refrigerator (see page 8, "SWITCHING THE
REFRIGERATOR ON AND OFF") before cleaning it.
âž Clean the interior with warm water and bicarbonate of soda,
with the aid of a sponge or cloth. This will prevent the
formation of odours.
âž Never use steam cleaning machines, solvents or abrasive
detergents, which may damage the inside of your refrigerator. Do not place the
inside fittings in the dishwasher.
âž From time to time clean the water trap and drain, using warm water with a few
drops of bleach.
âž It is recommended that the rear grill be cleaned once year using a vacuum
cleaner: if it is dusty and dirty, that reduces the refrigerator’s performance and
increases its consumption.
âž If possible, do not open the refrigerator doors.
âž When power is restored, check to see if the food has unfrozen.
âž Consume any defrosted food immediately. Do not re-freeze!
WHAT TO DO IF THE REFRIGERATOR IS NOT TO BE
USED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME:
âž Empty the refrigerator.
âž Unplug and clean the unit as described above, and turn the light off at the switch.
âž Leave the doors open to prevent formation of unwanted odours.
âž Vacation function: If your refrigerator is not going to be used for a long period but you
wish to keep frozen food in the freezer, you may activate the holiday function (see page
12 "HOLIDAY FUNCTION") or switch off the refrigerator and leave the door closed.The
appliance will go onto low consumption and bad smells will not form inside it.
5.CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
