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.

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. Do not use 
sharp pointed objects, solvents or sprays.

•  After cleaning switch the appliance on and reload the food.
