Care and cleaning
IMPORTANT: Turn off the ice maker using the ice off key on the control panel before removing the ice compartment
for cleaning.
Always disconnect the appliance from the power before any cleaning or maintenance.
•
The refrigerator and freezer sections should be cleaned using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
•
Do not use abrasive products or detergents. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly.
•
Clean the shelves and balconies separately by hand using soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.
•
The evaporating tray and water drain hole (at the back of the refrigerator compartment) should be cleaned periodically to
prevent the defrosted water from collecting inside the refrigerator compartment. The drainplug can be used to clear the
drain hole.
•
Once cleaning is complete, then reconnect the power.
•
If the appliance is not used for prolonged periods of time, unplug and clean the appliance. The doors should be left
slightly open to prevent the formation of mildew and smell.
This appliance must never be installed close to heat sources, e.g. heating elements, cookers or in damp places.
•
The plug should be fully accessible at all times.
•
To ensure the appliance is level, you should use the height adjustable feet at the front of the appliance.
•
The cooling system at the rear of the appliance must not touch the rear wall.

The appliance must be installed with adequate ventilation. Ensure that there is 15 cm clearance above the appliance, and that
there is space between the rear of the appliance and the wall.
The water filter
The water filter should be replaced every six months approximately to ensure best performance. This duration may be reduced
depending on the water quality and usage. When replacement is required, the
symbol will show on the display.
To order a replacement filter, contact CDA Customer Care.
The filter is located in the top right of the fridge compartment.
When removing the filter for replacement, place a container underneath the filter to catch any residual water which will fall.
To remove the filter, turn the filter to the left then lower out of position. To replace, push the filter upwards, and then turn it to
the right.
