Indesit INCB31AAUK Guida Utente

 Varies by number and/or position, available only on certain models.

Thanks to the powerful light it emits, the new LED lighting system 
offers a clear view of all foods, with no shadowy areas. If the LED 
needs to be replaced, please contact the Technical Assistance 
Service.

                            

•   Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been 

defrosted. These foods must be cooked and eaten (within 24 
hours).

•   Fresh food that needs to be frozen must not come into contact 

with food that has already been defrosted. Fresh food must 
be stored in the top FREEZER and STORAGE compartment 
where the temperature drops below -18°C and guarantees 
rapid freezing.

•   Do not place glass bottles which contain liquids, and which 

are corked or hermetically sealed in the freezer because they 
could break.

•   The  maximum  quantity  of  food  that  may  be  frozen  daily  is 

indicated on the plate containing the technical properties 
located on the bottom left side of the refrigerator compartment 
(for example: Kg/24h: 4)

! Do not open the door during freezing.
! If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the freezer 

door. This will help maintain the temperature inside the freezer, 
ensuring that foods are conserved for at least 9 -14 hours.
! In order to obtain a greater amount of space in the freezer 

compartment, you may remove the bins (except the lowest bin 
and the special COOL CARE ZONE bin, which has an adjustable 
temperature) and place the food directly onto the evaporator 
plates.

SUPER FREEZE *

The “Super Freeze” button enables intensive chilling so that the 
desired temperature is reached quickly. Once the fresh food is 
frozen, set the switch back to the OFF position. WARNING: in 
order to save energy, make sure the function is switched off after 
24 hours. 

During cleaning and maintenance it is necessary to disconnect 
the appliance from the electricity supply.
It is not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on 

 

(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.

•   The external and internal parts, as well as the rubber seals may 

be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm 
water and bicarbonate of soda or neutral soap. Do not use 
solvents, abrasive products, bleach or ammonia.

•   The removable accessories may be soaked in warm water and 

soap or dishwashing liquid. Rinse and dry them carefully.

•   The  back  of  the  appliance  may  collect  dust  which  can  be 

removed by delicately using the hose of a vacuum cleaner set 
on medium power. The appliance must be switched off and 
the plug must be pulled out before cleaning the appliance.

•   The appliance is manufactured with hygienic materials which 

are odour free. In order to maintain an odour free refrigerator 
and to prevent the formation of stains, food must always be 
covered or sealed properly.

•   If you want to switch the appliance off for an extended period 

of time, clean the inside and leave the doors open.

! Follow the instructions below. 
Do not speed up the defrosting process by using any devices 
or tools other than the scraper provided, you may damage the 
refrigeration circuit.

The refrigerator has an automatic defrosting function: water is 
ducted to the back of the appliance by a special discharge outlet 
(see diagram) where the heat produced by the compressor causes 
it to evaporate. It is necessary to clean the discharge hole regularly 
so that the water can flow out easily.

If the frost layer is greater than 5 mm, it is necessary to defrost 
manually:

1. 

Set the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob to the position OFF

2. Wrap frozen foods in newspaper and place them in another 
freezer or in a cool place.
3. Leave the door open until the frost has melted completely. This 
can be made easier by placing containers with lukewarm water 
in the freezer compartment.
4. Clean and dry the freezer compartment carefully before 
switching the appliance on again.

To replace the light bulb in the refrigerator compartment, pull out 
the plug from the electrical socket. Follow the instructions below.
Access the light bulb by removing the cover as indicated in the 
diagram. Replace it with a similar light bulb within the power range 
indicated on the cover.
