Never refreeze food once it has defrosted, even partially, without cooking it
first.
We advise not to place any items you have just taken out of the freezer straight
into your mouth (ice cream, ice cubes, etc.), they will be at a very low
temperature and you risk frostbite. Avoid touching frozen or deep-frozen food
with wet hands; your skin may stick to the food. We recommend that you only
defrost food for immediate use.
6. CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
Defrosting
The defrost of fridge part is automatic and for freezer part is manual.
Defrost your freezer 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 appliance 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 the inside
After defrosting you should clean the appliance 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 them. 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
vegetable drawer.
Cleaning the outside
Use standard non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water to clean the exterior.
The grille of the condenser at the back 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
appliance.
