Maintenance
Defrosting
Frost on the cooling element is unavoidable. Frost
occurs when moisture in the air settles on the cold
cooling element. The Freezer compartment door for
the absorption refrigerator and the cover for the cold
compartment refrigerators should not be opened
unnecessarily, nor should the refrigerator door be left
open. The refrigerator door should also not be left
open. The refrigerator should be defrosted when the
frost layer reaches a thickness of 5-10mm. Manual
defrosting is carried out as follows:
■ Remove the frozen produce from the freezer
compartment and wrap it in newspaper for
example to insulate it against heat and place it
somewhere cool.
■ Turn off the refrigerator by turning the thermostat
knob to the left, to the ‘0’ position. Models
equipped with an absorption refrigerator can also
be switched off using the power controller, which
can be found at the bottom of the refrigerator on
the outside by the thermostat knob.
■ When the refrigerator has been defrosted, reset
the thermostat knob back to the required
temperature.
■ The melted water which has collected in a bowl
below the cooling element can be emptied and
the frozen produce put back in the freezer
compartment.
Changing the bulb in the refrigerator
The bulb is situated on the right inside the refrigerator
and can be changed as follows:
■ Switch off the power by removing the plug.
■ Remove the protective glass, which is secured by
a screw.
■ The new bulb should be marked 230V 10-12 W
and have an E14 fitting.
Cleaning the refrigerator
Switch off the power by removing the plug. Remove
the produce and place somewhere cool. Clean the
refrigerator internally and externally with a mixture of
water and a mild unperfumed detergent. Close the
door and switch on the power. After 10-20 minutes,
the produce can be put back in the refrigerator.
The sink and wooden fittings can also be cleaned
using a mixture of lukewarm water and a mild
detergent.
When the refrigerator is not in use:
■ Switch off the power by removing the plug.
■ Empty the refrigerator of produce.
■ Clean in accordance with the section entitled
“Cleaning the refrigerator”.
■ Leave the refrigerator door open slightly to
prevent bad odours from developing inside the
refrigerator.
Glass ceramic hob
A dirty hob can prevent the transfer of heat between
your cooking equipment and the hob. After use, clean
the hob with a clean damp cloth. In the event of heavy
soiling:
■ Use the scraper blade to remove stains, etc.
■ Overboiled food/water should be removed
immediately before the hob has cooled. This is
particularly important in the case of spillages of
sugar and food dishes that contain sugar,
melted plastic and aluminium film.
■ When the heat warning indicator has
extinguished, clean the hob with a suitable
detergent for glass ceramic hobs.
■ Shake the bottle and spray a couple of narrow
strips onto the hob.
■ Rub clean with a damp cloth or a piece of
kitchen roll.
■ Remove any excess detergent with a clean
damp cloth; otherwise it can etch into the hob
the next time it becomes hot.
■ In order to avoid rainbow-like stains, the hob
must be dry the next time it is heated.
Never use scouring agents, abrasive
sponges, oven-cleaners, etc. on a glass
ceramic hob.
