Care and cleaning
Always disconnect the appliance from the power before any cleaning or maintenance.
•
The refrigerator section should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
•
Do not use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.
•
Clean the shelves and balconies separately by hand using soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.
•
The evaporating tray and water drain hole (at the back of the refrigerator compartment) should be cleaned
periodically to prevent the defrosted water from collecting inside the refrigerator compartment. The drain
plug can be used to clear the drain hole.
•
Once cleaning is complete, then reconnect the power.
•
If the appliance is not used for prolonged periods of time, unplug and clean the appliance. The doors should be left
slightly open to prevent the formation of mildew and smell.
Defrosting the fridge
The fridge is self-defrosting. Any water created will run out of the fridge through the channel at the back of the fridge.
It is important to keep the channel clear at all times. The defrosted water is collected in the evaporating tray at the back
of the appliance.
Defrosting the ice-box
•
The ice box should be defrosted regularly to ensure the most efficient running, at a minimum of once every
six months.
•
Do not use heaters or defrosting sprays in this appliance.
•
Never use any metallic or sharp objects to remove the ice as this could damage the lining.
•
To speed up the process, put a bowl of warm water in the base of the ice-box compartment.
•
Once defrosting is complete, dry the inside of the ice-box with a sponge or clean cloth.
•
To bring the unit back to temperature more quickly set the thermostat to 5 after defrosting.
Changing the light bulb
Disconnect the appliance from the power.
•
Remove the light cover by pressing the grooves on both sides of the cover and then lifting away.
•
Unscrew the light bulb to remove it and replace with a new bulb (not more than 15W).
•
Replace the light cover and reconnect the power after five minutes’ delay as explained on page 3.
