Cleaning

Cleaning the Inside of the Wine Cooler

There is usually no need to defrost the wine cooler as any ice that is deposited on the back wall
will defrost automatically.
• Before cleaning the wine cooler always switch off and disconnect the mains supply.
• Remove all the shelves and detachable accessories and wash in warm soapy water, rinse and
dry thoroughly.
• If any ice has been deposited on the rear wall, leave the door open and wait until it begins
to thaw. As the solid frost loosens, pry it away with a plastic scraper and remove. Never use
metal or sharp instruments to remove the ice deposit.
• You should clean the interior of the wine cooler with a damp cloth.
• Check that the drain outlet at the rear wall of the wine cooler compartment is clear of debris
as this will affect the automatic defrosting.
• Empty the water collection tray at the back of the unit. Rinse and dry thoroughly before
GB
replacing.
• Do not let liquid get into the controls.
• It may be necessary to periodically wipe the bottom part of the storage area.
• Never clean the appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or
explosion.
• Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapours and liquids in the vicinity of this
or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire or explosion.

Cleaning the Outside of the Wine Cooler

Use a damp cloth to clean the wine cooler exterior and a glass cleaner to clean the door. Make
sure that the door is closed, to prevent cleaners from getting on the magnetic door seal or inside.
