Care and cleaning

Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before any cleaning or maintenance.
The fridge and crisper sections should be cleaned using a solution
of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Do not use abrasive
products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Clean the shelves, drawers and balconies separately by hand with a mild
solution of washing up liquid and water. Do not put them in the
dishwasher.
The water drain hole at the back of the fridge compartment should be
cleaned periodically to prevent the defrosted water from collecting inside
the fridge compartment. The drain plug can be used to clean the drain
hole.
If the appliance is not to be used for prolonged periods of time, unplug
and clean the appliance. The doors should be left slightly ajar to prevent
the formation of mildew and unpleasant odors.

Defrosting the fridge

The fridge is self-defrosting. Any water created will run out of the fridge through the channel at the
back of the fridge, unless the drain hole is blocked. It is important to keep the channel clear at all
times using the cleaning tool/drain plug supplied. The defrosted water is collected in the
evaporating tray at the back of the appliance and dissipated by evaporation.
Please note: If you are regularly finding pools of water in the fridge, or you notice that the
compressor is always running, then it is likely that the door is not sealing properly. This could be
due to a defective door seal or an incorrectly fitted, or overly heavy, decor door. For more
information see the troubleshooting section.
