After Use
When the appliance is not to be used for some time, for example for periods exceeding 48 hours, it is recommended that it be disconnected from the electrical supply and any remaining ice cubes and water be removed. Excess water in the Ice Cube Drawer, the Water Tank and water tray should be removed using kitchen towels or similar absorbent material.
It is also recommended that the appliance is cleaned on a regular basis, perhaps once every three months or more frequently in areas where chalky deposits can be a problem. Two cleaning solutions may be used. One is 1 part vinegar to 10 arts water, the other is 1 part bicarbonate of soda to 5 parts water. In both cases the appliance should be allowed to complete one ice making cycle, then left to stand for 6 hours before being thoroughly rinsed with fresh water and dried as detailed in the previous paragraph.
Solvents, detergents and abrasives must not be used for cleaning.
The appliance exterior can be cleaned with a damp cloth and then polished with a soft, dry lint free cloth.
