Cleaning your refrigerator-freezer
Before you start to clean your refrigerator-freezer remove the mains plug from the power supply.
Use a clean sponge or soft and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners.
Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.
Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleaners containing petroleum on plastics
and rubber parts.
Never use paper towels, window sprays, scouring cleansers or fl ammable fl uids on plastic parts as these can
scratch or damage material.
Clean with a cloth soaked in this solution and then dry with a soft cloth.
Prolonged off periods
If the refrigerator-freezer is not in use for a long period of time, proceed as follows:
Disconnect the refrigerator-freezer from the main supply by removing the plug from the wall socket.
Clean and dry the inside as instructed under the heading of cleaning the refrigerator-freezer.
Leave the door open to prevent any unpleasant smells from building up while the refrigerator-freezer is not

Energy saving tips
•
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or
heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
•
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces
the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
•
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts
down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
•
Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners
interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less effi
cient.
•
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as
needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
