detergent and wax polish for
cleaning.
• For non-No Frost products,
water drops and frosting up to a
fingerbreadth occur on the rear wall
of the Fridge compartment. Do not
clean it; never apply oil or similar
agents on it.
• Only use slightly damp microfiber
cloths to clean the outer surface of
the product. Sponges and other
types of cleaning cloths may scratch
the surface
• Dissolve one teaspoon of bi-
carbonate in half litre of water. Soak
a cloth with the solution and wrung
it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the
refrigerator with this cloth and the dry

• If you will not use the refrigerator for a
long period of time, unplug it, remove
all food inside, clean it and leave the

6.1 Avoiding bad odours
• Materials that may cause odour
are not used in the production of
our refrigerators. However, due
to inappropriate food preserving
conditions and not cleaning the inner
surface of the refrigerator as required
can bring forth the problem of odour.
Pay attention to following to avoid this
problem:
• Keeping the refrigerator clean is
important. Food residuals, stains, etc.
can cause odour. Therefore, clean
the refrigerator with bi-carbonate
dissolved in water every few months.
Never use detergents or soap.
• Keep the food in closed containers.
Microorganisms spreading out from
uncovered containers can cause
unpleasant odours.
• Never keep the food that have
passed best before dates and spoiled
in the refrigerator.
6.2 Protecting the plastic surfaces
Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked
meals in your refrigerator in unsealed
containers as they damage the plastic
surfaces of the refrigerator. If oil is spilled
or smeared onto the plastic surfaces,
clean and rinse the relevant part of the
surface at once with warm water.
