10 – Prohibitions and prescriptions
Attention: disconnect the cabinet from the power supply in case it is not used. The power supply has to be disconnected
by the remote-control switch fitted upstream from the power socket.
Attention: Do not expose the agent to atmospheric conditions, never use water jets directly on the appliance to clean it,
do not touch and do not use the appliance with wet or damp hands and feet.
Attention: Do not remove protections or coverings that require the use of tools to be taken off, do not remove the
covering of the electrical control panel.
Attention: Do not walk on the upper part of the appliance.
Attention: Do not attempt to remove ice formations with pointed metal objects.
Attention: The refrigerating system does not lead to any chemical change in the defrosting water produced by the
appliance. The latter only comes from the steam contained in the air that circulates inside it. In any case the water
produced by the systems must always be disposed of through the sewage system or purification plants in compliance
with the laws in force.
Attention: Any eventual use that is not explicitly indicated in this manual is to be considered dangerous and the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage due to improper, incorrect and irrational use.
Attention: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit (IEC60335-2-89:2002 and changes).
Attention: Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the
type recommended by the manufacturer (IEC60335-2-89:2002 and changes).
Attention: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Attention: Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Attention: Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
11 - Disposal of condensation water
Dry manually the condensation water formed in the refrigerated compartment, with a soft cloth.
12 - Cleaning the appliance
Attention: Before proceeding to the cleaning of the appliance disconnect the electrical current.
Periodically clean the appliance with neutral detergent and dry it with soft cloths. Do not use flammable or abrasive
products; do not carry out cleaning operations with direct jets of water. When cleaning the inside part of the appliance use
protective gloves so that skin does not come into direct contact with the cold parts.
Attention: Start the appliance again only after having made sure that the parts previously removed are dry. Recharge the
appliance by following the steps in point 7.
13 – Maintenance of the appliance
Attention: All operations described in the maintenance of the appliance should be carried out by qualified personnel.
Attention: Before proceeding to maintenance disconnect the electrical current.
Attention: Other maintenance operations, (not described herein) including replacement of lamps with lamps of the same
model, have to be commissioned to authorised centres of assistance or qualified personnel.
Clean the condenser monthly, removing the side protection grid (FIG. 9 page 3). Use a rigid silk brush (not metal) or even
better, a vacuum cleaner, eliminate all dust accumulated and residue deposited between the fins making sure to not
damage them. When cleaning the condenser use gloves to protect from being cut. Once cleaning operations have been
finished replace the removed protections. Leaving the condenser dirty for long periods of time means the appliance
consumes more energy and performs worse. The evaporator forms accumulations of ice after long periods of running,
therefore impeding it from working correctly. Every three months proceed to general cleaning, therefore remove the
electrical tension and completely empty the appliance. Wait for the ice that has formed on the evaporator fins to melt
completely then clean it carefully with soft silk brushes, even in this case use gloves to protect from being cut (before
starting it again make sure the internal walls are completely dry). It is advisable to have the appliance checked in general
by a refrigeration specialist or qualified technician once a year.
14 - Emergency situations
Attention - If the counter stops or does not start:
- Make sure there is not an electrical blackout
- Make sure the plug is inserted correctly in the outlet.
- Make sure (where present) that the eventual protection device above the outlet is inserted.
Attention - If the appliance does not cool enough:
- Make sure the condenser id clean and able to carry out its function of heat exchange, read point 11 if this is not the
case.
- Make sure the air intakes are not blocked, if this is not the case read point 7.
- Make sure the evaporator is not covered by ice, if this is not the case read point 13.
- Make sure the appliance is not near air currents or heat sources (see point 4).
- Make sure the appliance is level and that the environmental conditions respect what is reported in point 4.
If the problem continues after the various checks call the nearest assistance center.
Attention - In the case of gas leaks or fire do not go near the motor opening and remove electrical tension from the
appliance. Do not use water to extinguish the flames but only dry extinguishers. All materials that make up the appliance
are fire-retardant or self-extinguishing and are not combustible.
