Cleaning and care
Interior and Exterior Surfaces
Attention
Always unplug the power cable or switch
off the circuit breaker before cleaning.
Clean the exterior using lukewarm water and
a mild detergent.
Never use detergents, abrasive or acidic
agents.
Wipe the inside compartment dry
.
Be careful to prevent water from getting into
contact with the electrical connections of the
temperature control or the interior light.
If the device is not going to be used for a long
period of time, switch it off and remove all food.
Clean the device and keep the door open.
To preserve the appearance of your device,
you can polish the exterior and the door
accessories with a silicone wax.
Clean the condenser at the back of the device
once a year using a brush or a vacuum cleaner
.
Dust build-up leads to increased energy
consumption.
Inspect the door gasket at regular intervals.
Clean with water only, and wipe totally dry.
Cleaning of the accessories
Door shelves:
Remove all food from the door shelves.
Lift the cover of the shelf upwards and pull it
off sideward.
Remove the bottom of the door shelf by
pushing it upwards.
Collecting container (Pan):
Make sure that the pan at the back of the
device is always clean.
Gently release the snap of the pan from the
compressor by pushing it using a tool (like
screwdriver), so that the pan can be removed.
Lift the pan, clean it and wipe it dry.
Re-assemble in reverse order.
Crisper or Drawers:
To clean a drawer, pull it out as far as possible,
tilt it upwards and then pull it out completely.

Replacing the interior
light bulb
(Fig. 5)
Should the light fail to work, proceed as follows.
1- Switch off at the socket outlet and pull
out the mains plug.
You may find it useful to remove shelves for
easy access.
2- Use a flat tipped screwdriver to remove the
light diffuser cover.
3- First check that the bulb hasn’t worked
loose by ensuring it is screwed securely in the
holder. Replace the plug and switch on.
If the bulb works, replace the light cover by
inserting the rear lug and pushing up to locate
the front two lugs.
4- If the light still fails to work, switch off at the
socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.
Replace the bulb with a new 15 watt (max)
screw cap (SES) bulb.
5- Carefully dispose of the burnt-out light bulb
immediately.
Replacement light bulb can easily be obtained
from a good local electrical or DIY store.
