Wash the outer cabinet with warm
soapy water. Remove the ventilation
grille (see the section "Removing the
ventilation grille") and
vacuum-clean under the cabinet.
Once or twice a year dust the
condenser (black grille) and the
compressor at the back of the
appliance, with a brush or vacuum
cleaner, as an accumulation of dust
will affect the performance of the
appliance and cause excessive
electricity consumption.
When moving the cabinet, lift it by
the front edge to avoid scratching the
floor.
Servicing and cleaning the water dispenser.
Never use cleaning agents with a grinding or aggressive effect.
When necessary, clean the surfaces of the dispenser and the water container
that are accessible from the outside, using only a soft cloth and warm water.
The dispenser drip bowl can be cleaned with a tepid solution of washing up
liquid.
If the system is not be used for a long period turn off the water connection to
the refrigerator. A filter that has been in service shall not be exposed to
temperatures below 0 °C as cracking of the filter body may occur due to
freezing expansion.

temperature will be +5 °C.
When the refrigerator is to be used again, rinse the system through
thoroughly by draining off at least three litres (5 pints) of water.
If necessary, all systems containing water must be sanitized by ordering the
necessary sanitizing kit through Electrolux Service Force Centre
(tel: +44 8705 929 929) or through our website www.electrolux.co.uk.
