Cleaning, Care & Maintenance
•
Switch off and disconnect from the power supply before cleaning.
•
Clean the interior of the appliance as often as possible.
•
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. These can leave harmful residues.
•
Clean the door seal with water only.
•
Always wipe dry after cleaning.
•
Do not allow water used in cleaning to run through the drain hole into the evaporation pan.
•
Take care when cleaning the rear of the appliance. Sharp edges can cut.
Condensation and ice will form with frequent and prolonged opening of the doors.
Operating outside of the recommend temperature range and placing next to a heat source will also
increase the amount of ice and condensation.
Excessive ice will result in longer running times that will increase energy consumption and increase the
deterioration of components.
Cleaning the Condenser
Periodically cleaning the condenser can extend the life of the appliance.
Defrost
When any ice built-up reaches 5mm thick, a manual defrost process is required. To do this switch the
freezer off at the power supply. Then, manually defrost the appliance. Never use sharp objects for
scraping.
Troubleshooting
A qualified technician must carry out repairs if required.
