Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning the freezer compartment Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operation, switch the product off by pressing button (1) on the control panel for 3 seconds, then unplug the appliance or disconnect it from the power supply. The freezer should be defrosted once or twice a year, or when too much frost has formed on the refrigerant grills. It is perfectly normal for frost to form on the cooling grills. The amount and rate at which it accumulates depends on the room conditions and how often the door is opened, and tends to form more on the upper grills. It is advisable to defrost when the freezer is nearly empty. If possible, activate the Fast Freeze function 24 hours before defrosting, in order to thoroughly freezer the food; this helps to keep it cold whilst outside the freezer during defrosting process. 1. Open the freezer door and remove all the food, wrapping it close together in sheets of newspaper and put it in a very cool place or in a portable cooler. Leave the freezer door open to allow the frost to melt. 2. Pull out the defrost water drain and place a container under the drain. It is advisable to place a cloth in contact with the cabinet under the drain, to absorb any drops of water. 3. Clean the inside of the freezer with a sponge soaked in a solution of lukewarm water and/or mild detergent. Do not use abrasive substances. 4. Rinse and dry thoroughly. 5. Remove the drain. 6. Close the freezer door. 7. Reconnect the appliance to the power supply and press the button (1) again for 3 seconds. An acoustic signal (temperature alarm) will sound; to deactivate it, press the button (11). When the red light (10) goes off put the food back in the freezer. Note: If the compartment is not used for prolonged periods, it is advisable to leave the freezer door open to prevent the formation of mould, odours and oxidation.
