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 Frezing
Compartment
When the frost and ice layer in the frezing
compartment is 3-5 mm thick, you should clean
the freezer.
• Turn the thermostat knob to
STOP (0)
position, and disconnect the power supply.
Empty the compartment and take care that
the packages remain frozen.
• Put a suitable vessel under the frezing
compartment to collect the defrost water.
Leave the door of the compartment open to
accelerate defrosting.
• 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.
• 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).
After cleaning, connect the appliance to power
supply and reload it.
Switch Off the Appliance When Not In
Use
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a
longer period, set the thermostat knob to the
STOP (0)
position, disconnect the power
supply, take out the foods and defrost and
clean the appliance. Leave the door slightly
open.
