XII. CLEANING AND DEFROSTING THE FREEZER
For hygienic reasons the appliance (including exterior and interior accessories) should be
cleaned regularly (at least every two months).
Caution! The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of
electrical shock! Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the
mains socket.
Exterior cleaning
To maintain good appearance of your appliance, you should clean it regularly.
•
Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly on the surface of the
appliance. This helps ensure an even distribution of moisture to the surface.
•
Clean the doors, handles and cabinet surfaces with a mild detergent and then wiped
dry with a soft cloth.
Caution!
•
Don't use sharp objects as they are likely to scratch the surface.
•
Don't use Thinner, Car detergent, Clorox, ethereal oil, abrasive cleansers or organic
solvent such as Benzene for cleaning. They may damage the surface of the appliance
and may cause fire.
Interior cleaning
You should clean the appliance interior regularly.
•
It will be easier to clean when food stocks are low.
•
Wipe the inside of the freezer with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda, and then
rinse with warm water using a wrung out sponge or cloth.
•
Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and baskets.
•
Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts before putting them back into place.
•
Although this appliance automatically defrosts, a layer of frost may occur on the
freezer compartment s interior walls if the freezer door is opened frequently or kept
open too long. If the frost is too thick, choose a time when the freezer is nearly
empty and proceed as follow:
1.
Remove existing food and accessories baskets, unplug the appliance from the
mains power and leave the doors open. Ventilate the room thoroughly to
accelerate the process.
2. When defrosting is completed, clean your freezer as described above.
Warning!
Do not use sharp objects to remove frost from the freezer compartment. Only after the
interior is completely dry should the appliance be switched back on and plugged back into
the mains socket.
