Maintenance and care

Switching the appliance off
During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect the
appliance from the electricity supply:
1. Press the ON/OFF button to switch off the appliance.
2. Pull the plug out of the socket.
! If this procedure is not followed, the alarm may sound. This alarm
does not indicate a malfunction. To restore normal operation, hold the
ON/OFF button down for more than two seconds. To disconnect the
appliance, follow points 1 and 2 above.
I Care function
The I Care function can be enabled to optimise energy consumption.
Press and hold down the SUPERCOOL and REFRIGERATOR
OPERATION buttons simultaneously for at least 6 seconds to enable
this function.
On enabling the function, 4 indicator lights will go on for 2 seconds:
SUPER COOL light, SUPER FREEZE light and two temperature lights
- one for the refrigerator and one for the freezer.
After 5 seconds the interface will enter the energy saving mode and
the indicator lights will go off. The interface stays off even when the
door is opened. Just press any button to switch it on again. Press the
adjustment buttons to change the temperature.
Consumption will be optimised 48h after the function was enabled. To
disable the I Care function, switch off the product (see description).
The product can be switched on again for normal operation.
In humid environments, when the I Care function is enabled, slight
condensation may form on the doors; normal operating conditions
are restored when the function is disabled.
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.
Replacing the light bulb
Thanks to the powerful light it emits, the new LED lighting system
offers a clear view of all foods, with no shadowy areas. If the LED
needs to be replaced, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.
