Maintenance and cleaning
3.1 Cleaning the inside of the refrigerator. Use a sponge or a dish cloth soaked in water with bicarbonate of soda to clean the inside of the refrigerator, to prevent bad smells from forming.
Never use steam cleaning machines, solvents or abrasive detergents.
3.2 Cleaning the outside of the refrigerator.
Do not use steam cleaning machines to clean the displays.
It is recommended to clean the rear grille with a vacuum cleaner once a year.
3.3 Cleaning the accessories. The accessories are not dishwasher-safe. Wash them by hand, using a sponge or a dish cloth. 3.4 Changing the light. If the light bulb blows: Unplug the refrigerator. Press the tab to remove the light cover (3.4.1, 3.4.3) and remove the blown bulb (3.4.2, 3.4.4). Replace it by another bulb with the same screw type, E14, 220-240V, 15/25W, or as indicated on the light fitting. 3.5 Changing the carbon filter. Your refrigerator may be equipped with a carbon filter to absorb the unpleasant smells generated by some foods and to retain the microorganisms (fungus and bacteria) in the circulating air.
The filter maintains its properties for a limited time of 6 months. When this time has elapsed, the filter should be changed and a new one fitted. The filter location depends on the model.
