suitable for washing in a
dishwasher.7.2  Initial power onCAUTION!
Before inserting the power plug in to the outlet and
switching on the cabinet for
the first time, leave the
appliance standing upright
for at least 4 hours. This will
assure a sufficient amount of
time for the oil to return to
the compressor. Otherwise
the compressor or electronic
components may sustain
damage.7.3  Cleaning the interior

							4.If accessible, clean the condenser
and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush.
This operation will improve the
performance of the appliance and save
electricity consumption.7.5  Defrosting of the
refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the
evaporator of the refrigerator
compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use.
The defrost water drains out through atrough into a special container at the
back of the appliance, over the motor
compressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and
dripping onto the food inside.
7.6  Defrosting the freezer
The freezer compartment is frost free. This means that there is no build up of
frost when it is in operation, neither on the internal walls nor on the foods.
The absence of frost is due to the
continuous circulation of cold air inside
the compartment, driven by an
automatically controlled fan.7.7  Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
periods, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from
electricity supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Clean the appliance and all
accessories.
4. Leave the door/doors open to
prevent unpleasant smells.
WARNING!
If the cabinet will be kept on,
ask somebody to check it
once in a while to prevent
the food inside from spoiling
in case of a power failure.8.  TROUBLESHOOTINGWARNING!
