the outer casing of this appliance is only cleaned with
warm water with a little washing-up liquid added.
Defrosting the freezer
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a thick-
ness of about 10-15 mm.
The best time to defrost the freezer when it contains no
or only a little food.
To remove the frost, do these steps:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in several layers of
newspaper and put it in a cool place.
3. Leave the lid open , remove the plug from the de-
frost water drain and collect all defrost water on a
tray. Use a scraper to remove ice quickly.
4. When defrosting is completed, dry the interior thor-
oughly and refit the plug.
5. Switch on the appliance.
6. Set the temperature regulator to obtain the maxi-
mum coldness and run the appliance for two or
three hours using this setting.
7. Reload the previously removed food into the com-
partment.

Possible cause
The appliance is not supported prop-
erly.
The temperature is not set correctly.
The lid has been opened too fre-
quently.
The lid is not closed properly.
Large quantities of food to be frozen
were put in at the same time.
Food placed in the appliance was too
warm.
Important! Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off
frost as you could damage the appliance. Do not use a
mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up
the thawing process other than those recommended by
the manufacturer. A temperature rise of the frozen food
packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage
life.
Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, take
the following precautions:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
3. Remove all food.
4. Defrost and clean the appliance and all accessories.
5. Leave the lid open to prevent unpleasant smells.
Important! If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody
to check it once in a while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a power failure.
Important! There are some sounds during normal use
(compressor, refrigerant circulation).
Check if the appliance stands stable
(all the four feet should be on the
floor).
Set a warmer temperature.
Do not leave the lid open longer than
necessary.
Check if the lid closes well and the
gaskets are undamaged and clean.
Wait some hours and then check the
temperature again.
Allow food to cool to room tempera-
ture before storing.
