6. Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning
n
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply
before cleaning.
n
Do not wash your appliance by pouring water on it.
n
DO NOT use harsh abrasives, or aggressive cleaners
as these can damage the interior of the appliance.
n
The freezer is heavy. When moving the freezer be
careful to protect the floor. Keep the freezer vertical
and do not tilt the freezer – this prevents damage to
the floor.
n
DO NOT spray or rinse the freezer with water or
other liquids. This could harm the electrical parts.
n
Use a dry cloth when cleaning near the electrical
parts (such as the light bulb or switch).
n
DO NOT clean the freezer with a stiff or wire brush.
n
DO NOT use an organic solvent such as detergent,
petrol, lacquer, thinners, acetone or acid.
n
To prevent your skin sticking to cold steel parts,
make sure your hands are not wet when touching
the parts.
n
DO NOT use HOT water to clean the glass shelves, as
they may break or crack.
Empty the appliance of food and remove the shelves.
Clean the interior using warm water and bicarbonate of soda
with a soft cloth. Make sure that the interior is then dried
carefully with a suitable cloth.
After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. When
you have finished cleaning, reconnect the plug to the mains
supply with dry hands.
Shelves and other accessories (plastic and glass parts) can be
cleaned in the sink using liquid dishwashing liquid and warm
water. Make sure all soap is rinsed off and all parts are dry
before replacing them inside the appliance.
Always keep the door seals clean.
Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other
electrical components.
The appliance should be cleaned regularly using a solution of
bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
Clean the accessories separately by hand with soap and
water. Do not wash accessories in a dish washer.
Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year.
This will help you to save on energy costs and increase
productivity.
