KitchenAid KCBCR18600 [9/16] Appliance maintenance and cleaning

Connect the appliance to the mains power supply.

A beep may be emitted by some models, to indicate that the temperature alarm has intervened: press and

hold the button to switch off acoustic alarms. As applicable, insert the anti-bacterial/anti-odour filter into

the fan as indicated on the filter package.

Note: after switching on, the refrigerator needs approximately 4/5 hours to reach the correct

temperature for storing a normal fridge load of food.

First use

Clean the appliance regularly using a cloth and a solution of lukewarm

water and neutral detergent specifically formulated for refrigerator

interiors. Never use abrasive detergents. Clean inside the defrost water

drain outlet on the rear wall of the refrigerator (near the fruit and

vegetable crisper drawer) regularly, using the tool supplied with the

appliance so as to ensure defrost water is removed correctly (see

figure).

Before all cleaning or maintenance procedures, unplug the appliance

from the mains or disconnect the electricity supply.

Appliance maintenance and cleaning

Always unplug the refrigerator before replacing any light bulbs, then follow the relevant instructions in

accordance with the type of lighting fitted in your appliance.

Only use bulbs of the same type, which can be requested from the After-Sales Service and authorised

dealers.

Lighting type 1)

1. Loosen the screws and take off the lamp cover.

2. The lamp has a bayonet bulb and needs to be pulled out, not

unscrewed, following the directions of the arrows as indicated.

3. After the new bulb has been inserted, replace the lamp cover

and wait five minutes before plugging the appliance back in.

Lighting type 2)

To remove the light bulb, turn anticlockwise as shown in the figure.

Wait for 5 minutes before reconnecting the appliance.

Lighting type 3)

If the product has LED lighting which is in need of

replacing, contact the After-Sales Service for assistance.

LED lights last longer than normal bulbs, they illuminate

better and are more environmentally friendly
