
Defrost (model dependent) and clean the appli-
ance thoroughly (see
”Cleaning and Mainte-
nance”
).

Leave open the appliance door to avoid formation
of mold and unpleased odors.
Tips for Energy saving

Disconnect the appliance from the power supply if
it isn’t in use.

Do not install the appliance near stoves, heaters
or other heat sources. In case of higher ambient
temperatures, the compressor will run more fre-
quently and longer.

Ensure enough ventilation at the bottom and rear
side. Never block ventilation openings.

Place all shelves, racks or drawers (depending on
model) in their original position.

Adjust the temperature not colder than necessary.

Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the
appliance.

Open the unit door only as necessary.

Defrost the unit regularly (model dependent).

The seal of the appliance door must be complete-
ly intact, so that the door closes properly.
Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING:

Always disconnect the appliance from the power
supply before cleaning and user maintenance.

Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning the appli-
ance; moisture could enter electrical components.
Risk of electric shock! Hot steam could damage
the plastic parts.

The unit must be dry before restarting operation.
CAUTION:

Do not use a wire brush or other sharp, abrasive
items.

Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
CAUTION:

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
Cleaning the appliance including interior

Clean the appliance interior, the exterior surfaces,
the accessories and the door seal regularly with
warm water and mild detergent; or with a clean,
damp microfiber cloth without cleaning agent.

Remove the appliance content and storage it at a
cool location.

After everything was thoroughly dried, you can
restart the operation.

Depending on model:
Wipe at least once a year
the dust that has accumulated on the appliance
back and condenser (metal grille). To do this, use
a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
Defrosting
CAUTION:
Never use metal objects (e.g. knifes) to remove ice
from the evaporator. Otherwise it can be damaged.
For better cooling and to minimize power consump-
tion, the freezer compartment must be defrosted
manually on a regular basis as follows:

To start the defrosting process, disconnect the
appliance from the power supply.

Remove the appliance content and keep covered
at a cool location.

When the ice has melted, wipe the condensate
away and dry the appliance interior.

Then you may restart the appliance by connecting
the plug and setting the indoor temperature.
