Maint enance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply.
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. 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.
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. 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 Carbon Filter
To maintain the best performance the carbon filter should be changed every year. New carbon filters can be purchased from your local dealer. 1. Pull the flap outwards. (1) 2. Remove the filter from the plastic bag. 3. Insert the filter in the slot found in the back of the flap cover (2). 4. Close the flap cover. Note: the carbon filter is a consumable accessory and as such is not covered by the guarantee. During operation, always keep the air ventilation flap closed. The filter should be handled carefully so fragments do not loosen from the surface.
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 door open to prevent unpleasant smells.
HOLIDAY mode
The HOLIDAY mode is suitable when the refrigerator part is empty but there is foodstuff stored in the freezer. The HOLIDAY mode is switched on by pressing the "D" fridge temperature setting button several times. The display ("B") shows an "H" letter. To exit from the HOLIDAY mode press the "C" fridge temperature setting button. 12
