Cleaning and Care
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you must DISCONNECT
the appliance from the electricity supply.
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5
ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NEVER use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products
or wax polishes to clean the interior as these will damage the surface and
leave a strong odour.
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille) and the compressor at
the back of the appliance with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an
accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause
excessive electricity consumption.
Magnetic door seal
After opening and closing the door of your freezer you will not be able to
open the door again immediately. This is because a vacuum will have
developed inside, keeping the door closed until the pressures inside and
outside the door have equalised. After a few minutes you can easily reopen
the door.
