Cleaning and care
Interior and Exterior Surfaces
Attention
Always unplug the power cable or switch
off the circuit breaker before cleaning.
Clean the exterior using lukewarm water and a
mild detergent.
Never use detergents, abrasive or acidic agents.
Wipe the inside compartment dry.
Be careful to prevent water from getting into
contact with the electrical connections of the
temperature control or the interior light.
If the device is not going to be used for a
long period of time, unplug the power cable and
remove all food. Clean the appliance and keep the
door open.
To preserve the appearance of your appliance,
you can polish the exterior and the door
accessories with a silicone wax.
Clean the condenser at the back of the appliance
once a year using a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
Dust build-up leads to increased energy
consumption.
Inspect the door gasket at regular intervals.
Clean with water only, and wipe totally dry.
Cleaning of the accessories
Door shelves:
Remove all food from the door shelves.
Lift the cover of the shelf upwards and pull it off
sideward.
Remove the bottom of the door shelf by pushing it
upwards.
Collecting container (Pan):
Make sure that the pan at the back of the
appliance is always clean.
Gently release the snap of the pan from the
compressor by pushing it using a tool (like
screwdriver), so that the pan can be removed.
Lift the pan, clean it and wipe it dry.
Re-assemble in reverse order.
Crisper or Drawers:
To clean a drawer, pull it out as far as possible, tilt
it upwards and then pull it out completely
(Item 7-8).
Practical tips and notes
Cooling
• Clean fresh food and vegetables before storing
in the crisper bin.
• Always pack or wrap food, or put it in a suitable
container, before storing it in the appliance.
• Wrap food which is not suitable for storage at
cold temperatures in polyethylene bags
(pineapple, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc.).
• Food with strong odour or apt to acquire odour
should be wrapped in airtight or smellproof
packaging material.
• Keep fresh food separate from cooked food, to
avoid bacteria contamination.
• Never keep fresh meat in the fridge for more
than 2 or 3 days.
• Remove any left-over canned food from the can
and store it in a suitable container.
• Refer to the shelf life indicated on the food
packaging.
• Do not obstruct the air circulation inside the
device by covering the shelves.
• Never keep any dangerous or poisonous
substances inside your device.
• Always check food that has been stored for a
long period of time for its suitability for
consumption.
• Do not store fresh and cooked food together in
the same container.
• Close the door immediately after opening, to
avoid unnecessary energy consumption.
• Do not use hard or sharp objects to remove the
ice build-up.
• Do not load hot food into your appliance.
Freezing
• Always leave food to thaw in a container that
allows the thawing water to run off.
• Do not exceed the maximum allowable freezing
capacity when freezing fresh food (see the section
"Freezing")
• Do not give children ice-cream and water ices
direct from the freezer.
The low temperature may cause freeze burns on
lips.
• Never re-freeze defrosted food; defrosted food
must be consumed within 24 hours. Only food that
has been cooked can be refrozen.
• Do not take out frozen food with wet hands.
• Store only fresh and impeccable food.
• Always use appropriate packaging material to
avoid odour penetration or degradation of the
food.
• Store commercially frozen food in accordance
with the instructions given on the packaging.
• Freeze cooked food in small quantities. This
ensures rapid freezing and maintains the quality of
the food.
• Do not freeze liquid in tightly closed bottles or
containers.
The bottles/containers may burst at low
temperatures.
• Carry pre-frozen food in suitable bags and place
it in your freezer as soon as possible.
Always defrost food in the fridge compartment.
