CLEANING YOUR FREEZER


Clean the bin of the appliance using ½ a litre of warm water and a tablespoon
of bicarbonate of soda.

Soak a soft cloth in the solution, wring it out, and use it to clean out the interior
of the freezer compartment and its fittings.

Do not use wax polish, scouring powder, strong scented products or household
cleaners and detergent to clean the interior of the appliance as they may
