Before cleaning the appliance, ALWAYS
remove the mains plug or switch OFF or
unscrew the fuse.
NEVER clean the appliance with a steam
or steam pressure cleaner. The hot steam
may damage the surfaces and the
electrics.
The electrical safety of the appliance will
be impaired.
Clean the refrigerator compartment once a
month. It is recommended to clean the
freezer compartment after each defrosting
process.
Cleaning water must NOT drip onto the
control fitting or light. Clean the whole
appliance, except the door seal, with tepid
water and a mild, slightly disinfecting
cleaning agent, e.g. liquid soap. Abrasive
and acidic cleaning agents and chemical
solvents are NOT suitable.
To prevent dull areas, non-abrasive cleaning
agents should not be used either.
Wipe the door seal with water only and then
dry thoroughly.
To ensure that the condensation flow is not
obstructed, clean the collection channel
(Fig.
6
/4) and drain hole more frequently.
Try to prevent cleaning water from dripping
through the drainage aperture into the
evaporation tray.
Cleaning
● Install the appliance in a cool, well
ventilated room, but NOT in direct
sunlight and NOT near a heat source
(radiator, etc.).
● Do NOT block the ventilation slots on the
appliance.
● Allow warm food to cool down before
placing in the refrigerator.
● To defrost frozen products, place them in
the refrigerator compartment. The low
temperature of the frozen products is
then used to cool the food in the
refrigerator compartment.
● Defrost the freezer compartment when
ice forms. A thick layer of ice will impair
refrigeration of the frozen food and
increase power consumption.
● When inserting or removing food from the
appliance, open and close the doors as
quickly as possible. The briefer the
freezer-compartment door remains open,
the lower the formation of ice in the
freezer compartment.
