6. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Defrosting
The defrost of your appliance is manual.
Defrost your appliance when frost is accumulated on the evaporator is about 2mm:
▪
Set the thermostat to "OFF" for defrosting.
▪
Unplug your appliance from the main power.
▪
Remove all contents from the appliance.
▪
Leave the fridge door open to allow melting of the ice.
▪
Remove large pieces of ice if necessary with dishcloth or something that will not damage
the walls.
▪
Do not use hot water or other electric heaters to melt the accumulated ice.
▪
After defrosting, remove the accumulated ice / water and try the appliance with a soft cloth.
▪
Restart the unit according to the start instructions. Never use a knife or other sharp
instrument to scrape ice inside.
Cleaning inside the fridge
Before maintenance, switch off the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
After defrosting you should clean the fridge internally with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda.
Then rinse with warm water using a damp sponge or cloth and wipe dry. Wash the baskets in warm
soapy water and ensure they are completely dry before replacing in the fridge. Condensation will
form on the back wall of the Fridge; however, it will normally run down the back wall and into the
drain hole behind the salad bin.
Cleaning outside the fridge
Before maintenance, switch off the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
Use standard non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water to clean the fridge exterior.
The grille of the condenser at the back of the fridge and the adjacent components can be vacuumed
using a soft brush attachment.
Do not use harsh cleaners, scouring pads or solvents to clean any part of the fridge
If you're going on vacation
If your appliance is not to be used for several months, remove all food, turn off and unplug the
appliance from the outlet. Clean and dry the inside and outside of the appliance thoroughly. Also
leave the door open, blocking it if necessary, to prevent condensation, odors, mold.
Moving the unit
▪
Location
Do not place your refrigerator near a heat source, for example. Stove, boiler or radiator. Also, avoid
direct sunlight.
▪
Refrigerator upgrade
Make sure the refrigerator is level. Use the rotatable adjustable feet at the front. If the refrigerator is
not level, the doors and magnetic sealing alignments will be affected and may cause malfunctions.
▪
Do not turn on the refrigerator for 4 hours
After any movement, it must not be connected for 4 hours. This delay allows the coolant to be
adjusted.
