CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Defrosting
Frost will gradually form on the cooling surfaces and it must not be allowed to
become too thick since it impairs the cooling efficiency of the refrigerator.
RH030 - RH060
Defrosting of the frost built up on the evaporator starts automatically for 2 hours
long in every 24 hours.
The defrost water is automatically evaporated by the heat generated by the
appliance. After defrosting is completed, cooling will automatically be started
again.
Defrost water
During the defrosting process the water runs through a hose into a container on
the back of the refrigerator where it evaporates. This container does not need to
be emptied.
Cleaning
Clean the inside of your refrigerator regularly to keep it fresh and gygienic.
Switch off the appliance and pull out the plug. Clean the interior and fittings
carefully with a mild detergent in lukewarm water.
Never use acidic, abrasive or strongsmelling detergents or wax polishes as
these will damage the surfaces and leave an unpleasant smell.
The wooden housing should be dusted from time/to/time or wiped down with a
damp cloth. The door seal should onlz be cleaned with water and rubbed down
with talcum powder from time to time.
If possible, the unit should also be dusted occasionallz with a brush or, even
better, with a vacuum cleaner. Ensure that the plug is disconnected.
Changing the feet RH 060DF
Should you wish to install your miniBar, you will not need the 40-mm feet. After
having removed the 40-mm feet, you can then re-attach the 12-mm feet, located
inside the 40-mm feet, to the front and rear fixing points. The 40-mm feet and
the 4 remaining screws should be retained for future use.
Changing the lightbulb (If available)
If the lightbulb needs changing, pull out the plug and proceed as follows:
Press the metal reflector to one side and draw the lamp covering backwards.
Replace the bulb and push the covering back into place.
A new max. 10-watt bulb can be obtained at any service shop.
Longer periods of absence
If you wish to switch off the appliance for a longer period of time, pull out the
plug, defrost the refrigerator and clean it carefully. Leave the door open to
prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
