6. CLEANING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

WARNING
BEFORE CLEANING: Turn the
refrigerator off at the power point and
unplug the cord to prevent any chance
of electrocuting yourself.
Doors and exterior (white and silver):
You should only clean the doors with
lukewarm soapy water and a soft cloth.
Interior
Clean the inside of your refrigerator regularly
with a soft cloth, unscented mild soap and
lukewarm water. Thoroughly dry all surfaces
and removable parts and avoid getting water
on the controls. Replace removable parts,
plug power cord in and switch the power on
before returning the food.
Door seals
Always keep door seals clean by washing
them with a mild detergent and warm water,
followed by a thorough drying. Sticky food
and drink can cause seals to stick to the
cabinet and tear when you open the door.
Never use hot water, solvents, commercial
kitchen cleaners, aerosol cleaners, metal
polishes, caustic or abrasive cleaners, or
scourers to clean your refrigerator. Many
commercially available cleaning products
and detergents contain solvents that will
damage your refrigerator. Use only a soft
cloth with an unscented mild soap and
lukewarm water.
CAUTION
To clean a crisper or freezer bin with
telescopic extension slides, simply
wipe with a damp cloth and warm
soapy water. Never immerse the cover
in water, as this could affect the
operation of the slide.
Switching off your refrigerator
If you switch off your refrigerator for an
extended period, follow these steps to
reduce the chances of mould.
1. Remove all food.
2. Remove the power plug from the power
point.
3. Thoroughly clean and dry the Interior.
4. Ensure that all the doors are wedged open
slightly for air circulation.
CHANGING THE FILTER
Air Filter
The air filter is located in the top center of
the fresh food compartment.
Replacing your Air Filter
To ensure optimal filtering of refrigerator
odors, you should change the air filter six
months (The filter status light on the Touch
Panel prompts you to replace the filter after
six month)
1. Remove the air filter cover by squeezing
the sides of the cover together and
removing from liner
2. Remove the old filter and discard it.
3. Unpack the new filter and slide it into the
housing. The open face must (carbon
media) of the filter should be installed
facing the air port (hole) in the multiflow.
4. Replace the air filter cover by squeezing
the sides and snapping it back into place.
5. Press and hold the "Reset Air Filter"
button on the control panel for three
seconds. When the LED turns off, the
status has been reset.
