Prior to any cleaning. Please disconnect the appliance from
the mains
(turn the thermostat button to the position

A special antibacterial protection in the upper layer of interior
walls prevents multiplication of bacteria, thus contributing to
better appliance hygiene. Nevertheless, regular cleaning is still
required.
• Use a
soft cloth
to clean all surfaces. Cleaners containing
abrasive particles, acids, or solvents, are not appropriate
as they will damage the surface.

with water or a mild solution of
suds.

lukewarm water to which some mild detergent was added.
Cleaning agents with minor alcohol content are also acceptable
(e.g. window cleaners).

interior
with lukewarm water to which you
may add some
vinegar
.
• Placed under the cooling board that cools the refrigerator
interior are a trough (groove) and an opening through which
melted water is discharged from the appliance interior. The
through and the opening should never be blocked; therefore,
check them often and clean as required (e.g. using a plastic
straw).
• Frost and ice accumulated in a layer of 3-5 mm will cause
an increase in power consumption; therefore it should be
removed regularly. Do not use any sharp objects, solvents, or
sprays.
•
Condenser unit
on the back of the refrigerator should always
be kept clean, free of dust or deposit from kitchen smoke. Use
a soft non-metal brush or a vacuum cleaner to clean the dust
periodically.

above the refrigerator compressor. If
it was removed for cleaning, replace it afterwards. Make sure
the container is in a horizontal position!
• After cleaning, switch on the appliance and put the food back
