Refrigerator does not need defrosting because the ice on the back
interior wall is thawed automatically.
Any accumulated ice will melt when the compressor unit is inactive.
Drops will
fl ow through an opening in the refrigerator rear wall into a
tray fi tted above the compressor, from where they will evaporate.
If an excessive layer of ice is formed on the rear wall of
refrigerator interior (3-5 mm), switch off the appliance and defrost
the appliance manually.

Before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the power mains
–
switch off the appliance (see chapter Switching the Appliance
On/Off) and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Use a soft cloth to clean all surfaces. Cleaners that contain
abrasive substances, acids, or solvents are not suitable
for cleaning
as they may damage the surface.
Clean the appliance exterior with water or a mild solution of suds.
Lacquer-coated and aluminium surfaces may be cleaned with
lukewarm water to which you have added a mild detergent. Use of
cleaners with low alcohol content is allowed (e.g. window cleaners).
Do not use cleaners containing alcohol for cleaning plastic materials.
Appliance interior can be cleaned with lukewarm water to which
you can add some vinegar .
• A gutter and an opening through which the water from thawed
ice fl ows are located underneath the cooling panel that cools
the refrigerator interior. The gutter and the opening may not be
clogged. Inspect them often and clean if necessary (e.g. with a
plastic straw).
• Frost or ice build-up, 3-5 mm thick, will increase power
consumption. Therefore, it should be regularly removed. Do
not use any sharp objects, solvents, or sprays.
• The condenser unit mounted on the (exterior) back wall
should always be kept clean, free of dust or deposits resulting
from kitchen smoke or fumes. Occasionally clean the dust
using a soft non-metal brush or a vacuum cleaner.
