Use and Care Manual

CARE AND CLEANING
Before performing any sort of cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the
electrical power supply.
To clean the parts made of stainless steel use a microfiber cloth and the special sponge provided
in the kit with the appliance. Always use the cloth and sponge in the direction of the steel’s satin
finish. For painted surfaces, use a mild household liquid detergent solution to remove dust and
other deposits. Never use any solvent-based cleaners, stainless steel cleaners, heavy degreasers,
oven cleaners, etc. on the painted surfaces. They can permanently damage the paint. Rinse off
with clean fresh water and dry with a clean cloth.
Do not use the sponge on aluminum parts, such as the handles and the profiles of the glass
shelves.
You should use special care to keep the ventilation openings in the appliance or in the cabinet
that houses it free of obstructions.
Scrupulously follow the detailed directions that can be found in the provided kit and never use
abrasive or metallic products which could scratch and damage the satin finishing on the appliance
permanently.
Be careful not to damage the refrigerant circuit in any way.
Ventilation GrilleVentilation Grille
A ventilation grille is located either at the top of the
appliance or at the bottom according to the model type.
To clean it, use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush
attachment at maximum power, sweeping it along the vent
slits.
In case of significant dust build up, the ventilation grille can
be opened or removed for more complete cleaning and to
clean the condenser.
CondenserCondenser
The condenser is located behind the ventilation grille.
Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button
on the main control panel for about 3 seconds.
Wait about 30 minutes, until the finned condenser cools
down to room temperature.
On models with ventilation at the base, remove the grille
at the bottom (magnetically attached) and take it off.
On models with ventilation at the top, lift the grille as
shown in the picture. Thoroughly clean the grille and the
condenser fins by means of a vacuum cleaner with soft brush
attachment. Clean any dust build up thoroughly as shown in
the picture, taking care not to damage the fins.
Start up the appliance again, by pressing the ON/OFF
button
on the control panel for 3 seconds.
Internal CleaningInternal Cleaning
Clean the internal and removable parts by washing them
with a solution of lukewarm water, a small amount of
dishwashing detergent.
Rinse and dry right away.
Do not use mechanical devices or other methods to speed up defrosting.
Do not bring cold glass parts into contact with boiling water. Do not wash
any parts of the refrigerator in a dishwashing machine since this could
damage or irreparably deform the parts.
The use of chlorine-based detergents or cleaners (bleach) should be avoided.
The edges of the condenser are
sharp, therefore use adequate
protection for the hands and arms
when cleaning the condenser.
Do not use water on the electrical
parts, lights and control panel.
