Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such
as knives or forks to remove the droplets which
have refrozen. If, at any time, the defrost water
does not drain from the collection channel, check
that no food particles have blocked the drain tube.
The drain tube can be cleared with a pipe-cleaner
or similar implement. Check that the tube is
permanently placed with its end in the collecting
tray on the compressor to prevent the water spilling
on the electric installation or on the floor (Item 4).
B) Freezer compartment
The low temperature compartment: defrost
twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7
(1/4") mm has formed. To start the defrosting
procedure, switch off the appliance at the socket
outlet and pull out the mains plug. All food should
be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and
stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Containers of warm water may be placed
carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects, such
as knives or forks to remove the frost. Never use
hairdryers, electrical heaters or other such
electrical appliances for defrosting. Sponge out
the defrost water collected in the bottom of the
freezer compartment. After defrosting, dry the
interior thoroughly. Insert the plug into the wall
socket and switch on the electricity supply.

appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the
mains plug before cleaning.
2. Never use any sharp instruments or abrasive
substances, soap, household cleaner, detergent
or wax polish for cleaning.
3. Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of
the appliance and wipe it dry.
4. Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of
one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint
of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.
5. Make sure that no water enters the
temperature control box.
6. If the appliance is not going to be used for a
long period of time, switch it off, remove all food,
clean it and leave the door ajar.
7. We recommend that you polish the metal
parts of the product (i.e. door exterior, cabinet
sides) with a silicone wax (car polish) to protect
the high quality paint finish.
8. Any dust that gathers on the condenser,
which is located at the back of the appliance,
should be removed once a year with a vacuum
cleaner.
9. Check door seals regularly to ensure they are
clean and free from food particles.

11. Removal of door tray:
• To remove a door tray, remove all the contents
and then simply push the door tray upwards from

the back of the appliance which collects defrost
water is clean at all times. If you want to remove
the tray to clean it, follow the instructions below:

mains plug.
• Gently uncrimp the stud on the compressor,
using a pair of pliers, so that the tray can be
removed.
