MAINTENANCE
Prior to undertaking any maintenance operation be
sure to unplug the appliance from the wall socket as a
safety precaution.
Clean the interior periodically with lukewarm water
and some bicarbonate of soda; the cabinet exterior
with a Silicone wax spray; the condenser and the mo-
tor compressor with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
During periods when the appliance is not in use, take
the following precautions:
unplug the appliance from the power supply;
remove all foodstuffs from the appliance;
clean the interior and all accessories;
leave the doors ajar to facilitate the circulation of air in
the interior of the cabinet so as to prevent unpleasant
odours from accumulating in the appliance.
What to do if the appliance is not function-
ing properly
If something is not working properly, check that:
the plug is firmly in the wall socket and the mains
power switch is on;
there is an electricity supply (find out by plugging in
another appliance);
the thermostat knob is on the correct position.
Furthermore
If the appliance seems too noisy, check that the sides
are not touching furniture that can transmit or amplify
a noise or a vibration.
Also, check that the piping of the refrigerant system
does not vibrate. If there are water drops on the bot-
tom of the cabinet check that the defrost water drain
opening is not obstructed (Fig. 4).
If your appliance is still not working properly after
making the above checks, contact the nearest service
centre.
To obtain fast service, it is essential that when you ap-
ply for it you specify the model & serial number of your
appliance which can be found either in the warranty or
on the rating plate.

The light bulb of the refrigerator can easily be reached.
If the light does not come on when the door is
opened, check that the light bulb is correctly screwed
in; if after this it still does not light up, replace the bulb.
