MAINTENANCE
• Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent. Never use abrasive
products or aggressive cleaning agents.
• Dry the inside of the unit, plug on the mains, and set the thermostat knob to the lowest
temperature setting. After 24 hours, set the thermostat to the normal position.
Warning
Never remove ice layer with sharp objects, defrosting sprays, a hairdryer, an electric
heater or something similar. This can be unsafe and cause irreparable damage to the
appliance.
Cleaning the appliance
Switch off the appliance and disconnect it from the mains before you start cleaning it.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, as they can damage the surface.
The day before you clean, set the thermostat dial to the lowest temperature setting to
freeze the foods completely / activate the intensive freezing function (if present) 24 hours
before you plan to clean the freezer.
• Before cleaning, frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in a
cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember to use
these foods within a relatively short period of time.
• Regularly clean the interior of the appliance with lukewarm water. If so required, add a
neutral cleaning agent or special refrigerator cleaner to the water. Clean all surfaces with
a soft cloth. Wipe the cleaned parts with a cloth with clean water and then dry them
thoroughly.
• Do not put parts of the appliance in a dishwasher: this could damage them.
• Dry the inside of the unit, plug on the mains, and set the thermostat knob to the lowest
temperature setting. After 24 hours, set the thermostat to the normal position.
When you are not going to use the appliance for a longer period then switch it off and
disconnect it from the mains. Empty, defrost and clean the appliance, and leave the door
ajar.
