CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Switch off the electrical supply and remove the plug from the socket before cleaning.
Interior
1.   Remove all food from the fridge and cover to help keep it cool.
2.   Remove the shelf from the fridge and defrost the ice box following the instructions above. Wash the  
  shelf in warm soapy water with a soft cloth and dry thoroughly. Never put the shelf into the  
  fridge wet.
3.   Wipe the interior of the fridge with a damp clean cloth. For extra cleaning use a solution of one 
  teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water.
4.   Dry the interior thoroughly with a clean cloth and replace the shelf.
5.   Plug in and switch back on and allow the temperature in the fridge to drop to the correct  
 temperature.
6.   Replace the food in the fridge.

Exterior

Use a clean, damp soft cloth to wipe the exterior surface of the fridge and dry thoroughly.

WARNING: Do not use abrasive powder, household cleaner, bleach or wax polish to clean the fridge 

as these can leave a smell in the fridge and can damage the exterior.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from underneath the fridge and from around the compressor 
situated at the back of the fridge. Use caution not to damage the coolant system.

Door Seal

Use a clean, damp soft cloth to wipe the door seal and in between the creases of it. Take care not to 
damage the seal and do not use sharp objects to clean it. Ensure that the seal is dried thoroughly before 
using the fridge. Do not use detergent on the seal as it will cause damage to it.

Going Away

If you are going away and do not want to leave the fridge left on, switch off at the socket and pull the plug 
from the mains. Remove any food and follow the defrosting and cleaning instructions in the “Defrosting” 
and “Cleaning and Maintenance” sections.
Note: Leave the door ajar as this will prevent odours accumulating in fridge and will allow the fridge to 
dry completely.

Operating Sounds of a Fridge

If you have not owned a fridge before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual noises. Most of 
these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!
The compressor makes a buzzing or humming sound when it is running. This can be louder when the 
fridge is first switched on but should become quieter in a few months.
Gases flowing through the cooling system can cause a gurgling, bubbling or whooshing sound. These 
noises are normal and have become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases.
Expansion and contraction of parts inside the fridge can produce a cracking noise as they rapidly change 
temperature.
