MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING 

External cleaning

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners
contain chemicals that can attack/damage the
plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it
is recommended that the outer casing of this
appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a
little washing-up liquid added. 

An accumulation of dust will affect the performance
of the appliance and cause excessive electricity
consumption.

Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried
out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the
ELECTRICITY supply.

Internal cleaning

Clean the inside and accessories with warm water
and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water).
Rinse and dry thoroughly.

NEVER USE DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE

POWDERS, HIGHLY PERFUMED CLEANING
PRODUCTS OR WAX POLISHES, TO CLEAN THE
INTERIOR AS THESE WILL DAMAGE THE
SURFACE AND LEAVE A STRONG ODOUR.

When the appliance is not in use

When the appliance is not in use for long periods,
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all
foods and clean the appliance, leaving the doors ajar
to prevent unpleasant smells.

Food Storage

To obtain the best results from the appliance
neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should be placed in the larder
compartment.

Keep the time between buying chilled food and
placing it in your refrigerator as short as possible.

Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.

Do not store food uncovered.

Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and
clean, refer to Maintenance and Cleaning.

Energy Saving Advice

Do not install the appliance close to sources of
heat, such as a boiler or radiator.

Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and make sure that the air openings of the
appliance are not obstructed.

Always leave warm food to cool down to room
temperature before placing in the fridge.

Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.

Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
door from closing properly.

It is advisable to peridocally clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the appliance
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.

HINTS AND TIPS

You MUST ensure that the appliance is switched
OFF. 

Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill)
and the compressor at the back of the appliance,
with a brush or vacuum cleaner, see figure.
