Keeping Your Appliance in Shape
Before performing any cleaning, unplug the appliance
from the mains electricity supply (keep ON/OFF button
"A" pressed down for more than two seconds, until OFF
is displayed in both fridge and freezer compartments,
then unplug the appliance). Should you fail to follow this
procedure, an alarm condition may arise. WARNING: this
alarm is not a sign of an anomaly. To restore your
appliance's normal operating conditions, keep ON/OFF
button "A" pressed down for more than two seconds to
turn the appliance off and then turn it back on and set
the required temperatures.
HOLIDAY FUNCTION. Mould and
bad odours forming inside your
unused fridge when you go on
holiday need no longer be a
problem: just enable the Holiday
function (from the display). This way, with limited
energy consumption, the temperature of the
refrigerator compartment is kept at around 12°C (you
can store your make-up and beauty products in it, for
example) and the freezer is operated at its minimum
setting, which is essential for food preservation.
The new odour filter assures better quality of the air inside
the refrigerator. The filter is located on the bottom right-
hand side, inside the ventilation opening. The filter with ac-
tive carbons can be activated by removing the sticker (Fig.
5). In general, to ensure constant air purification, the filter
should be replaced after ap-
proximately 6-8 months from
when it is activated (Fig. 6
and 7). However, the dura-
tion may vary depending on
the types of foods stored in
the refrigerator. To replace it,
all you have to do is contact
a Service Centre.

Cleaning and maintenance of the parts
Before cleaning your refrigerator, set knob "F" to
position " " and then unplug the appliance.
- Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic odourless
materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed
containers for strong smelling foods to avoid the formation
of odours that are difficult to remove.
- Use only a water and bicarbonate solution: Clean the internal
and exterior of your appliance with a sponge soaked with a
warm water and sodium bicarbonate solution, which is also a
good disinfectant. If you do not have any sodium bicarbonate
at home, use neutral detergent.
- What not to use: Do not use abrasive detergents, bleach or
detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based
products.
- All the removable parts can be cleaned by soaking in hot
soapy water or detergent. Remember to dry thoroughly before
replacing them.
- What about the back panel? Dust may deposit on the back
panel and affect the proper running of the appliance. To
remove dust, vacuum away the dust very carefully using the
appropriate vacuum cleaner accessory.
- When the appliance is left unused for an extended amount of
time. If you decide to switch your appliance off during the summer
months, clean it on the inside and leave the doors open.
- Replacing the light bulb.
When replacing the lamp, disconnect the appliance from
the mains, unscrew the burned out lamp and replace it with
another following the steps illustrated in figure 10. Make
sure that the wattage is not greater than 8W.
