Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
GB
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to
disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply:
It is not sufficient to set the FREEZER OPERATION Knob
on
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
Cleaning the appliance
The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber
seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been
soaked in lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda or
neutral soap. Do not use solvents, abrasive products,
bleach or ammonia.
The removable accessories may be soaked in warm
water and soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry
them carefully.
The back of the appliance may collect dust which can
be removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum
cleaner set on medium power. The appliance must be
switched off and the plug must be pulled out before
cleaning the appliance.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours
The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials
which are odour free. In order to maintain an odour
free refrigerator and to prevent the formation of stains,
food must always be covered or sealed properly.
If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended
period of time, clean the inside and leave the doors
open.

Holiday function
If you are going on holiday, you do not have to switch
the appliance off; it features a low-energy function which
optimises the temperature of the refrigerator
compartment to suit the products stored inside it (you
may, for example, wish to protect cosmetics and beauty
products from the heat). The freezer temperature must
be set to the minimum value in order to preserve the
food.
To enable the function: set the REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION knob on
Replacing the light bulb
To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment,
pull out the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the
instructions below which may vary according to the model
of the appliance.
Access the light bulb as shown
(see diagram) and replace it with
a similar light bulb, the power of
which should not exceed 10 W.
