Prior any cleaning attempt disconnect the appliance from the
mains
(see the control chapter for ON/OFF function), and pull the
power cord from the mains wall outlet.
Special antibacterial protection in top layer of inner walls
prevents multiplication of bacteria and maintains the interior
clean and germ free.
Make sure to remove traces of any cleansing agents you had
been using.
• Clean the
exterior of the appliance with water and liquid detergent.
• Do not use abrasive or aggressive agents (such as stainless
steel cleansers) for cleaning of plastic and coated surfaces as
you can damage them.
• Clean coated and/or aluminum surfaces with soft cloth and
alcohol based cleansing agent (for example glass cleaners).
• Wash the interior of the appliance with liquid detergent and
lukewarm water, mixed with a little vinegar.
• Containers, shelves, and drawers with a decorative pro fi le (metallic
appearance) are not dishwasher safe! They can only be cleaned
with a dissolved liquid detergent and a soft cloth. Do not rub them!
• Groove and drain outlet located underneath the cooling panel at
the rear wall collect the drained water, so they must not be clogged
(with food particles, for example). Make sure you inspect them
periodically and clean if necessary (use plastic straw to free the
outlet hole).
• The condenser on the rear wall must always be clean and free of
dust or kitchen fumes deposits, therefore clean the dust periodically
with non-metallic brush or vacuum cleaner..
• Clean also the drip pan above the compressor. If you removed
the pan, please make sure you replace it to the same position, and
check that it is in completely horizontal position!
• Ice and/or frost deposits exceeding 3-5 mm increase energy
consumption, so you need to remove them regularly (with the
exception of the NO FROST model). Do not use sharp pointed
objects, solvents or sprays.
• After cleaning switch the appliance on and reload the food.
