Hints & Tips
Food Storage
To obtain the best results from your appliance neither hot foods nor liquids which may evaporate, should be placed in the larder compartment.
Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your fridge as short as possible.
Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate around each item.
Do not store food uncovered.
Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and clean, refer to cleaning and maintenance.
Energy Saving Advice
Do not install the cabinet close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or radiator.
Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated room and make sure that the air openings of the cabinet are not obstructed.
Always leave warm food to cool down to room temperature before placing in the fridge.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods, or opening the door too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet, and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing properly.
It is advisable to periodically clean the refrigeration system at the back of the appliance with a duster or vacuum cleaner.
Maintenance & Cleaning
Before any maintenance of 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.
Do not use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products, wax polishes or cleaning products containing bleach or alcohol.
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.
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.
