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.
Disconnect the power supply before
cleaning the appliance.
Do not use coarse or aggressive cleaning
agents as you can damage the surface.
Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with mild soap
and water.
Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Never use
abrasive scouring powders.
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.
After cleaning connect the appliances to the mains
supply, turn it on and replace the beverages again.
Interior
Wash the inside with mild soap and water or baking
soda and water. Do not use an abrasive powder,
solvent, polish cleaner or undiluted detergent.
Glass door
Use a glass cleaner or mild soap and water and a
soft cloth to clean the glass door.
Do not use any abrasive powders.
