HOW TO DEFROST AND CLEAN THE LOW TEMPERATURE
COMPARTMENT
For optimum performance, we recommend the low
temperature compartment is defrosted at least twice a year,
or when the ice on the walls reaches a thickness of about
3mm.
If possible, defrost the freezer when it is nearly empty.
1. Remove the food from the freezer, wrap in newspaper and
group together in a cool place or in a portable cooler.
2. Disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply.
3. Leave the door open to allow the frost/ice to melt.
4. Remove the defrost water with a sponge.
5. Clean the compartment using a sponge dampened in a solution
of warm water and neutral detergent. Do not use abrasive
products.
6. Rinse and dry carefully.
• Note: Do not use sharp or pointed metal instruments to scrape off ice; do not heat the low temperature
compartment artificially.
HOW TO CLEAN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
Periodically clean the inside of the refrigerator
compartment.
Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is completely
automatic.
Droplets of water on the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment
indicate that the periodic automatic defrost cycle is in progress.
The defrost water is automatically routed to a drain outlet and
into a container from which it evaporates.
Clean the defrost water drain outlet regularly using the tool
supplied with the appliance in order to ensure defrost water is
removed correctly.
Before carrying out any cleaning operations, unplug the
appliance.
• Use a sponge dampened in lukewarm water and/or neutral
detergent.
• Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive products.
