User manual WHIRLPOOL ART 945/G-K INSTRUCTION FOR USE

[. . . ] Keep potentially hazardous packaging (plastic bags, polystyrene etc. ) out of the reach of children. Appliance The appliance is built from reusable materials. If you decide to scrap the refrigerator, it must be disposed of in compliance with local waste disposal laws. Before scrapping, cut off the power cable so that the appliance cannot be connected to the mains. [. . . ] When you purchase frozen food, make sure: x The packaging is undamaged (frozen food in damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package bulges or is marked by liquid stains, the product has not been correctly stored and may have partially thawed. x When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and transport items in insulated bags. x Place items in the low temperature compartment as soon as you get home. x If food has partially thawed, do not refreeze. x Avoid subjecting frozen foods to temperature variations. Observe the “Best before date” on the packaging. x Always observe the storage information on packages. x Making ice cubes Fill the ice cube tray three quarters full with water and place in the bottom of the low temperature compartment. If the ice cube tray sticks to the bottom of the compartment do not use pointed or sharp instruments to detach them. 6 M 6 Y N C HOW TO DEFROST AND CLEAN THE LOW TEMPERATURE COMPARTMENT We recommend defrosting the low temperature compartment once or twice a year when ice has built up to about 3 mm on the walls and when the contents are low. Open the door, remove the food from the low temperature compartment, wrap in paper and pack together in an insulated bag or cool part of the house. Leave the door open to allow the ice on the low temperature walls to thaw. Remove the defrost water from the bottom of the low temperature compartment. Clean with a sponge soaked in a solution of lukewarm water and neutral detergent. x Note: To avoid irreparable damage to the low temperature compartment, do not use pointed or sharp metal instruments to scrape off ice or heat the compartment artificially. HOW TO CLEAN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT Regularly clean the refrigerator compartment. The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. The formation of water droplets on the back wall of the refrigerator compartment indicates that the automatic defrosting cycle is underway. The defrost water is channelled to a run-off and collected in a container where it evaporates. Keep the run-off channel clean using the special tool supplied. This ensures that defrost water is drained efficiently. Before cleaning the appliance, unplug it from the mains. x Clean the refrigerator interior with a sponge soaked in a solution of lukewarm water and/ or neutral detergent. x Rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
