13. Cleaning Instructions
IMPORTANT:
Cared for correctly the cabinet will retain its
appearance for many years.
White Exterior: wipe with a warm damp
soapy cloth followed by a clean damp cloth
and thoroughly dry.
Stainless Steel Exterior: use a proprietary
stainless steel cleaner following the
manufacturers instructions.
Aluminium Interior: to be washed with
soapy water, rinsed and dried thoroughly.
WARNING:
High alkaline cleaning agent or those
containing bleaches, acids and chlorines are
very harmful to stainless steel. Corrosion and
pitting may result from their accidental or
deliberate application.
If any of these liquids should come into
contact with the cabinet during general
kitchen cleaning, wipe down the affected area
immediately with clean water and rub dry.
Never use wire wool or scouring powders on
any surface. After cleaning allow the cabinet
to reach its normal operating temperature
before reloading with product. During usage
all spills should be wiped clean immediately
but care should be taken not to touch the
interior of the freezer cabinet as warm skin
can ‘freeze’ to metal.
CONDENSER:
Clean the condenser, located in the unit
compartment, when it becomes dirty.
Important: Disconnect the mains electrical
supply to the machine prior to cleaning the
condenser.
Clean the condenser using a soft brush or
vacuum cleaner. NOTE: if there are any
stubborn grease deposits etc left on or
through the condenser call your Foster
Authorised Service Company to carry out a
full service.
Once the condenser has been cleaned switch
the unit on.
Failure to carry out this action may invalidate
the warranty of the condensing unit. Any
service calls due to lack of maintenance may
be chargeable.
