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.

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.
