Maintenance and Cleaning

Automatic Defrosting of the Refrigerator

There is no need to defrost the refrigerator, because ice
depositing on the inner back wall is defrosted automatically.
Ice is depositing on the inner back wall during the compressor
operation; later on, when the compressor is not operating ice is
defrosting and water drops collect and drain through the outlet
in the inner back wall into the drain pan situated above the
compressor, from where it evaporates.

Manual Defrosting of the Freezer

When the frost and ice layer in the freezer is 3-5 mm thick, you
should clean the freezer.

• 

Few hours before defrosting set the thermostat to position 

7

,

so that packages are well frozen. Reset the thermostat to

STOP (0)

 position and disconnect the power supply. Empty

the freezer and take care that the packages remain frozen.

• 

 Insert the enclosed pipe into the groove in the bottom of  the
appliance  and place a vessel underneath to  collect the
defrost water. Defrosting is accelerated if the door is left
open.

• 

Avoid using defrosting sprays, as they may cause damage
to the plastic parts and may be hazardous to health.

Cleaning the Appliance

Disconnect the power supply before cleaning the
appliance.

Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning agents as you can
damage the surface.
Be careful to remove any cleanser agent remaining after
cleaning.

• 

Clean the 

exterior

 with water and detergent.

Varnished surfaces are cleaned with soft cloth and an
alcohol based cleaning agent (for example glass cleaners).
You may also use alcohol (ethanol or isoprophylic alcohol).
The application of abrasive and specially aggressive
cleaners, such as the stainless steel cleaners, is not
appropriate for the cleaning of plastic and coated parts.

• 

Parts made of stainless steel should be cleaned with special
agents for stainless steel. Use a soft cloth and apply a thin
layer of detergent onto the surface.

• 

Remove the 

detachable accesories

 in the interior of the

appliance and clean it with water and liquid detergent.
Plastic parts cannot be washed in washing machine.

• 

Wash the 

interior

 of the appliance with lukewarm water, in

which you added one or two spoonfuls of vinegar.

• 

Every now and then wipe the 

condenser

 on the rear wall.

Use soft non-metal brush or vacuum cleaner.

• 

Do not forget to clean also the defrost water 

receptacle

above the refrigerator compressor (do not remove the
receptacle).
