Cleaning the interior
You should clean the refrigerator interior regularly. It will
be easiest to clean when the food supply is low. Wash the
interior with a soft cloth and use an unscented mild soap with
lukewarm water. Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable
parts. Avoid getting water on refrigerator controls. If you have
taken out any removable parts, replace them and switch
the power on before restocking the refrigerator with food.
You should keep the interior of your refrigerator hygienic
by promptly and thoroughly wiping up any food spills.
Keep door seals clean
Take care to keep door seals clean. Sticky food and drink
can cause seals to stick to the cabinet and tear when you
open the door. Wash the seal with a mild detergent and
warm water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry.
caution
Never use hot water, solvents, commercial kitchen cleaners,
aerosol cleaners, metal polishes, caustic or abrasive
cleaners, or scourers to clean this appliance as they will
damage it.
Many commercially available cleaning products and
detergents contain solvents that will damage your
refrigerator. When cleaning, use only a soft cloth
with an unscented mild soap and lukewarm water.
Energy consumption (electricity costs)
The following guide will help you reduce the running cost
of your new refrigerator. This will save you money and help
conserve our valuable energy resources.
1. If you keep your old refrigerator, save power by
switching it off when not in use.
2. Do not set your freezer temperature too low. After
24 hours, ice cream should be firm but able to be
scooped out with a spoon without bending the handle.
If ice cream is firmer than this (or too soft), adjust the
freezer temperature controls (see 'Controlling the
Temperatures', page 6).
3. Ensure that the refrigerator doors seal properly as you
close them.
4. Before you open the refrigerator doors, decide what you
want to put in or take out. This will minimize the time you
have the doors open.
5. It is best to have the refrigerator in a place that is out of
direct sunlight and away from heating appliances of any
kind. For example, do not place the refrigerator next to
a cooker, stove or dishwasher.
6. Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before you
put them in your freezer.
7. Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator section.
8. If you keep the freezer compartment filled to capacity,
your food mass will help maintain the freezer
temperature when you open the door.
9. Do not block air vents. Doing so may cause the
refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.
Switching off the refrigerator
If you are leaving for a short holiday, there is no need to turn
off your refrigerator – use eco/vacation or eco mode (page 7).
If you are going on a long holiday and want to turn the
refrigerator off, follow the steps below.
1. Take all the food out of the refrigerator and freezer
compartments.
2. Switch off the refrigerator and remove the electric cord
from the power point.
3. Clean the inside.
4. Leave the doors open. This prevents bacteria from
growing and causing smells in the refrigerator.
Power failure
If there is a power failure in your area, keep the door to
the freezer closed. Most foods in your freezer will stay
frozen for 24 hours.
