Switching off for longer peri-
ods of time
If, during a long absence, the refri-
geration appliance is switched off
but not cleaned and the door(s) left
shut, there is a risk of mould forming
inside the appliance.
It is essential to clean the refrigera-
tion appliance.
If the refrigeration appliance is not go-
ing to be used for a longer period of
time, observe the following:
Switch the refrigeration appliance off.
Switch off at the wall socket and
withdraw the plug from the socket, or
disconnect the fuse.
Empty the ice-cube drawer.
Risk of damage to the ice-cube
maker.
If the water inlet is blocked while the
ice-cube maker is still in use, the wa-
ter inlet pipe can freeze up.
Turn the ice-cube maker off if the
water supply is turned off (e.g. while
on holiday).
Close the stopcock for the water in-
let.
Clean the refrigeration appliance and
leave the door ajar to air the appli-
ance and avoid odours building up in-
side.
It is also advisable to carry out the last
two instructions if you are switching
the refrigerator section off for a longer
period of time.
