REFRIGERATOR MAINTENANCE Remember: - CLEANING Disconnect the power supply before you start cleaning the refrigerator. EXTERIOR Use a soft cloth with warm water and mild detergent. Do not use a brush for cleaning. INTERIOR Wash the insides of the compartments with a mild detergent solution. Do not use boiling water, gasoline or benzene for cleaning. MAGNETIC DOOR GASKET Wash with mild detergent solution using a soft cloth. Make it a point to clean the gasket at least twice a year. Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to keep it supple and pliable. f VEGETABLE BOX Excess water that accumulates at the bottom of the vegetable crisper should be emptied and the crisper should be wiped dry. I 9 I 7 REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL MED I • R During installation, the temperature control knob should be set in the MAX position and the refrigerator should be empty and allowed to run for about 2-3 hours. To store food at lower or higher temperatures, regulate the temperature control knob towards MAX or MIN. (Max is for maximum cooling and vice versa.) MIN OFF MAX Do not tamper with/damage the thermostat sensing bulb. DEFROSTING ■ Your refrigerator needs to be defrosted whenever excess ice forms around the freezer or if the Defrost Indicator in the freezer gets covered by ice. For best results, we recommend you defrost at least once in 3 days. To defrost, simply press the Defrost Button in the centre of the Temperature Control Knob. The ice will melt and the water will automatically evaporate from the Evaporation Tray. The Evaporation Tray should be cleaned regularly and more frequently during the monsoon season. A dirty evaporation tray could cause unpleasant odour and/or lowered evaporation of the defrosted water.
