Cleaning the interior
The appliance does not need to be defrosted
as it is equipped with an automatic defrost
function. Frost and ice are automatically de-
frosted and the thaw water is collected in a
thaw water container on the reverse side of
the appliance. The thaw water evaporates as
a result of the heat generated by the motor.
1. Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
2. Remove refrigerated food from the appli-
ance’s interior.
3. Ensure that your food is kept cool enough.
If you are unable to store it in another re-
frigerator in the meantime, wrap it up in a
thick layer of newspaper and store it in a
cool room or in an insulated bag during
cleaning.
4. To clean the interior, remove the fish/meat
drawer (9), the fruit/vegetable drawer (8)
and the glass shelves (10) and (12).
5. To remove the glass shelves, lift them
slightly at the front and then pull them out
of the guide rail.
6. In order to remove the door shelves (3)
and (4), simply push them upwards out of
the holders.
7. Clean all of the parts in lukewarm soapy
water. Then dry everything thoroughly.
8. Wipe down the inside with warm water
and washing-up liquid.
9. When wiping clean, add a few drops of
vinegar to the water to prevent mould
from forming.
10. Wipe the interior dry.
11. Clean the door seals with clean water
only; they are sensitive to oil and fat.
12. Replace the glass shelves, the drawers
and the door shelves.
13. Return the food to the fridge.
14. Insert the mains plug back in the socket
and activate “Quick refrigerating” as de-
scribed in section “Activating quick refrig-
erating” on page EN-12.
15. As soon as a temperature of +2 °C has
been reached, switch the interior tem-
perature back to the previous values as
described in section “Setting the temper-
ature” on page EN-12.
