MAINTENANCE

Cleaning inside the fridge freezer

The refrigerator should be cleaned every month. You should clean the 
refrigerator internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda.  
Rinse with warm water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe the 
fridge freezer dry before replacing the food. Wash the baskets and shelves 
in warm soapy water. Ensure they are completely dry before replacing in  
the fridge freezer. Plug in and switch on the mains supply. 

Cleaning the outside of the  
fridge freezer

Use standard furniture polish to clean the fridge freezer exterior.  
Make sure that the doors are closed to prevent polish getting on the 
magnetic door seal or inside. The grille of the condenser at the back  
of the fridge freezer and the adjacent components can be vacuumed 
using a soft brush attachment.

Cleaning tip

Clean when food stocks are low.

CLEANING

Defrosting

The fridge freezer is controlled by a tmer and can defrost automatically. 
The defrost water flows down to the evaporating tray which is located at 
the top of the compressor, and evaporates automatically.

Moving your fridge freezer

Location

Do not place your fridge freezer near a heat source, eg. cooker, boiler  
or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight.

Levelling the fridge freezer 

Make sure the fridge freezer is level. Use the rotating levelling feet at 
the front. If the fridge freezer is not level, the doors and magnetic seal 
alignments will be affected.

Do not turn on the fridge freezer for four hours

After the fridge freezer is in place, it needs to be left for four hours.  
The coolant fluid needs time to settle. 

Installation

Don’t cover or block the vents or grilles of your appliance.

Servicing

Repairs and maintenance of the appliance should only be performed  
by an authorised, qualified technician.

Before carrying out the bulb 
replacement, always switch off the  
fridge freezer and disconnect the 
electrical supply.

the two screws out.

4  Unscrew the light bulb.
5    

Replace with a new bulb (10w) that 
is the same size and shape as the 
previous one.

electrical supply and switch on.
