the accessories with lukewarm water
and a little washing-up liquid, and
then dry with a soft cloth.

^ Press the On/Off button.
The temperature display and the alarm
indicator light will flash until the freezer

Cool pack
Place the cool pack in the top drawer. It
will be at its most effective after it has
been in the freezer for approx. 24 hours.
Switching off
^ Press the On/Off button until the
temperature display goes out.
All the displays will go out and the
cooling system will switch off.
Switching off for longer
periods of time
If the appliance is not going to be used
for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst
on holiday:
^ switch the appliance off,
^ disconnect it from the mains,
^ clean the appliance out and
^ leave the door ajar to air the
appliance.
If, during a long absence, the
appliance is switched off but not
cleaned out and the door is left shut,
there is a danger of mould and
odours building up inside the
appliance.
