cleaning & maintenance
8
Before cleaning the refrigerator always unplug the appliance.
Clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm water and a
neutral detergent to prevent any bad smells occurring. After
cleaning, rinse the interior with clean water and rub dry. Leave
the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours. Simply remove the shelves,
drawer and door compartments to clean them by hand. Do not
clean the interior accessories in the dishwasher.
Clean the outside of the refrigerator and the gasket with a soft
moist cloth.
We recommend that you dus the back of the appliance with a
cloth or vacuum cleaner once a year in order to maintain a good
output and low energy consumption.
REPLACING THE BULB
When replacing the bulb, proceed as follows:
• Unplug the appliance from the mains.
• Remove the lamp cover by unscrewing the screw and pull the
lamp cover towards you.
• First check if the bulb is fully screwed in.
• If the bulb is defective, replace it with a bulb of the same
type: maximum 10 Watt, socket E14. This kind is widely
available.
• Replace the cover and the screw.
• Plug the appliance back into the mains.
