Section 4. Maintenance
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the
appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply.
4.1. Internal Cleaning
Clean the interior and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml
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.
4.2. External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT use abrasive products.
There may be sharp edges on the underside of the product, so care should be
taken when cleaning. Once or twice a year dust the rear of the appliance 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
increased energy consumption.
4.3. Defrosting
If ice build up in the ice-box exceeds 3-5mm, empty the contents and switch off
the appliance, leave the door open and allow the ice to melt. Do not use sharp
objects to scrape the ice away. Clean and dry the interior, close the door and
turn on the power to the appliance. When the power has been restored the
appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve the pre-set
operating temperature.
4.4. When the appliance is not in use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, remove the contents,
disconnect from the electricity supply and clean the appliance, leaving the door
ajar until you wish to use the appliance again.
4.5. Changing the Interior Light Bulb
- Switch off the power supply to the appliance
- Remove the screw from the light cover and remove the cover
- Unscrew the bulb from the rear of the light unit.
- Replace the bulb with a suitable replacement (must be same wattage).
- Refit the cover and switch the appliance back on.
