6. MAINTENANCE
Periodic cleaning of the compartment and condenser
Before starting the cleaning, switch off the appliance and unplug it from the socket. Clean the
internal compartment at least once a week. Periodically clean the condenser located in the technical
compartment. Before starting the cleaning, close and protect the cabinet, then use a brush and a
vacuum cleaner to remove the dust deposited on the front surface of the condenser.
Inactivity of the unit
During periods of inactivity, unplug the unit from the wall socket, clean thoroughly as you would
for periodic cleaning and allow air to circulate in the cabinet by covering the cabinet with a cloth
and leaving the door slightly open.
