Cleaning and defrosting
During operation, you may notice a build-up of frost around
the integral evaporator sealed into the rear of the inside
cabinet. This layer of frost will start melting when the
compressor is not working. Through a system of hoses,
the melt-water drains into the collection tray below the
compressor, where it will be absorbed into the surrounding
air.
∙ The unit does not therefore require de-frosting, but only
proper cleaning.
∙ To enable the melt-water to drain freely, always ensure
that the channel and discharge opening in the cabinet
are free of any blockage.
∙ Any water collecting in the bottom should be removed.
∙ Always remove the plug from the wall socket before
cleaning.
∙ Do not pour water over or inside the unit.
∙ Do not use aggressive cleaning detergents or those
containing alcohol. Also, do not use electrical devices
such as steam cleaning devices for defrosting or
cleaning.
∙ For frequent cleaning we recommend the use of warm
water with some mild detergent.
∙ The cabinet should be cleaned once a month.
∙ Any accessories should be cleaned separately with soapy
water. Do not put them in a dishwasher.
∙ After cleaning, thoroughly clean all surfaces with fresh
water before wiping them completely dry. When re-
inserting the plug into the wall socket ensure that you
have dry hands.
∙ To save energy and to ensure optimum performance, the
compressor (at the rear) should be carefully cleaned at
least twice a year, with a brush or a vacuum cleaner.
Trouble-shooting
Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is
switched on. These sounds are caused by:
∙ the electric
motor within
the compressor
assembly; during
compressor
start-up the sound
level will be slightly
higher for a short
time.
∙ the cooling agent flowing through the circuit.
The following table lists possible malfunctions, their
probable causes and solutions. In the event of operational
problems, check first whether a solution can be found using
this table. If the problem persists, disconnect the appliance
from the mains power and contact our Customer Service
Department.
