HOW TO DEFROST AND CLEAN THE REFRIGERATOR
Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, unplug the
appliance from the mains or disconnect the electrical power
supply
Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is completely
automatic.
Droplets of water on the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment
indicate that the periodic automatic defrost cycle is in progress.
The defrost water is automatically routed to a drain outlet and into a
container from which it evaporates.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
Defrost the freezer compartment once or twice a year or when the ice formation is
excessive.
It is perfectly normal for ice to form. The amount of ice which forms and the rate at which it
accumulates will depends on room temperature and humidity, and on the frequency with
which the door is opened. Ice formation is concentrated at the top of the compartment
and does not affect the efficiency of the appliance.
If possible, defrost the freezer when it is nearly empty.
• Remove the food from the freezer, wrap in newspaper and group
together in a cool place or in a portable cooler.
• Leave the door open to allow the frost to melt.
• Clean the interior with a sponge soaked in warm water and/or neutral detergent. Do not
use abrasive substances.
• Rinse the interior and dry thoroughly.
• Put the food back into the freezer.
• Close the door.
• Plug in the appliance once again.
• Switch the appliance on.
