Caring for your Appliance (cont).
12
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE:
• Clean the exterior of the appliance with
warm water and a small amount of
liquid detergent, dry thoroughly.
Varnished surfaces are cleaned with soft
cloth and an alcohol based cleaning
agent (for example glass cleaners). You
may also use alcohol (ethanol or isopro-
phylic alcohol).
The application of abrasive and specially
aggressive cleaners, such as the stainless
steel cleaners, is not appropriate for the
cleaning of plastic and coated parts.
• Remove the detachable accessories in
the interior of the appliance and wash in
warm soapy water, dry thoroughly.
• Wipe the interior and fittings with a clean
cloth wrung out in either a solution of
one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to
one pint water or Milton sterilising fluid,
diluted according to manufacturers’
instructions.
Dry the interior thoroughly with a clean
cloth before replacing fittings and food.
• Every now and then wipe the condenser
on the rear wall of the appliance. Use a
soft non-metal brush or a vacuum
cleaner.
• Do not forget to clean also the defrost
water receptacle above the refrigerator
compressor (do not remove the recepta-
cle).
• Use warm, soapy water to wipe along
and in between the creases of the door
seal, dry thoroughly.
