Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and free from debris.

External Cleaning

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.

To Change the Light Bulb

The light is switched on automatically when the door is opened. Before replacing the light bulb, disconnect the power plug from the outlet.

Press the spring together and pull the grille downward at the same time.

Use a bulb of the same type, E14 socket, maximum rating of 25 W.
