Cleaning and care
☞
Your refrigerator should be cleaned at regular intervals. This is best
done when it is empty or contains little food. During clearing, your
refrigerator should basically be disconnected (unplugged) from the
electricity supply.
☞
Some organic solvents as well as essential oils (e. g. juice from lemon
and orange peel, butyric acid) attack the plastic parts. Do not forget
that, even in the refrigerator, food stored too long may spoil.
☞
To prevent any odours from forming, the contents should therefore be
checked from time to time (including accessories) and thoroughly
cleaned with lukewarm water to which a mild detergent can be
added.
☞
Finally, wash with clean water and wipe dry. After clearing, promptly
restart your appliance.
When not in use
If your refrigerator is to remain unused for any length of time, it
must be disconnected (unplugged) from the electricity supply. Remove
all refrigerated and deep-frozen packages as well as ice-trays, clean
the refrigerator compartment thoroughly, and leave the door ajar to
prevent any odours from forming.
