Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.

Internal Cleaning

Clean the inside and accossories with warm water

and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0,5 litre water)

Rinse and dry thoroughly.

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.

Remove the ventilation grille (see the section

"Removing the ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean

under the cabinet. 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.

When moving the cabinet, lift it by

the front edge to avoid scratching the

floor.

Defrosting the freezer

A certain amount of frost will always form on the

freezer shelves and around the top compartment.

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer reaches a

thickness of about 3-5 mm.

Remove the freezer drawers and place them on top

of each other by turning every other drawer one half

turn. Put insulating material around the drawers, e.g.

blankets or newspapers.

The frozen products can also be packed closely

together and be kept in a cold location, e.g. in the

fridge.

Defrosting can be accelerated by placing bowls with

hot water (not boiling) inside the freezer.

Take out the drain spout and place it in the bottom

freezer drawer where water can collect.

Loosen the ventilation grille to enable the bowl to fit

under the drain spout.

Carefully scrape off the ice when it starts to thaw.

Use a wood or plastic scraper. Do not use sharp

objects as these may damage the interior.

When all the ice has melted, clean and wipe the

cabinet dry, then push the drain spout back in place.

Switch on the cabinet and replace the frozen

foodstuff.

Never use a hair drier or other heating

appliances to speed up defrosting. Excessive

heat may damage the plastic interior, and

humidity could enter the electric appliance

making it live.

When the appliance is not in use

Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.

Empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the

doors ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.

If the cabinet will be kept on, ask somebody to

check it once in a while to prevent the food inside

from spoiling in case of a power failure.
