Cleaning
Reasons for regular and thorough cleaning (deep
cleaning/main cleaning):
Assurance of the required hygiene.
►Always keep the goods interior in a clean
condition.
Lowest possible energy consumption.
Maintenance of trouble-free operation.
Extension of the life of the device.
WARNING
Damage to the electrical system and
refrigerant circuit by using steam and
high-pressure cleaners. Contact with
live parts may cause electric shock.
For devices of type R-290: The
refrigerant can escape and create an
explosive gas/air mixture. Risk of fire
due to sparks or overloading.
►For basic cleaning, do not use
steam and high-pressure cleaners (
→
see Chapter 1.6.2.1).
►For the main cleaning, refer to the
special cleaning manual.
WARNING
For devices of type R-290:
Electrostatic discharge and sparking
with flammable refrigerant. Sparks
can ignite the leaking refrigerant when
the refrigerant circuit is damaged/not
sealed. Risk of fire.
►To remove condensation and for
cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth or
sponge.
►Do not use dry cloths or sponges to
wipe dry (risk of electrostatic charging
and sparking).
►Do not operate any electrical
devices (e.g. wet vacuum cleaners)
within the refrigerator compartment
that are not of the type recommended
by the manufacturer. Devices with
explosion protection markings (see
→
1.2) are permitted.
CAUTION
Cutting injuries in the case of
material breakage.
Danger of falling.
Impact hazard due to the risk of
falling goods.
►Do not climb onto or into the
device during cleaning.
For the safe handling of glass, see
