Maintenance and Cleaning
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and
bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly
perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning
products containing
bleach or alcohol.
Clean the drain hole of the water trough at regular intervals
and ensure that the drain hole is clear at all times. If blocked
carefully clear using a piece of flexible curtain wire inserted
into the drain outlet to remove the blockage.
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure
they are clean and free from debris.
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water.
Do NOT use abrasive products.
There are sharp edges on the underside of the
product so care should be taken when
cleaning.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille)
and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a
brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will
affect the performance of the appliance and cause
excessive electricity consumption.
Changing the Light Bulb
Should the light fail to work you can change it as below:
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
Remove the lamp cover retaining screws, then take the
lamp cover off in the direction of the arrow and the bulb
can be changed. (Type of the bulb: 230 V, 15 W, E 14
thread)
After changing the bulb replace the lamp cover, and
retaining screws and reconnect the appliance to the
electricity supply.
Defrosting Your Appliance
The fridge compartment is defrosted automatically, when
the motor stops. Defrost water from the cooling plate
runs out of the drain and onto a tray on the motor
compressor where it evaporates. Droplets of water on
the cooling plate during defrosting are quite normal and
will freeze on the plate afterwards.
When the appliance is not in
use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods
disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of the
food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to
prevent unpleasant smells.
Before any maintenance of cleaning work is carried
out DISCONNECT the appliance from the
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
