Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply.
Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly.
NEVER USE DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE POWDERS, HIGHLY PERFUMED CLEANING PRODUCTS OR WAX POLISHES TO CLEAN THE APPLIANCE INTERIOR AS THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE AND LEAVE A STRONG SMELL.
External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT use abrasive products.
Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, see figure.
Changing the Light Bulb
Should the interior light fail to work, first switch off the appliance and disconnect from the electricity supply then replace as follows.
Spring off the light cover in the direction of the arrows and replace the bulb with one of the same type (230V, 15W, E14 thread).
After changing the bulb, replace the light cover and reconnect the appliance to the electrical supply.
When the appliance is not in use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods, disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all foods and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent the build up of unpleasant odours.
