carried out, DISCONNECT the appliance from
the ELECTRICITY supply.
4.1. Internal Cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and
bicarbonate of soda (5ml 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.
4.2. External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT
use abrasive products. There may be sharp edges on
the underside of the product, so care should be taken
when cleaning. 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 aect the performance of
the appliance and cause increased energy consumption.
