Cleaning and Care
For hygienic reasons the appliance
(including exterior and interior accessories)
should be cleaned at least every two
months.
CAUTION
The appliance must not be connected to
the wall outlet during cleaning. Danger of
electrical shock! Before cleaning, switch
the appliance off and remove the plug
from the wall outlet socket.
Exterior cleaning
To maintain good appearance of your
appliance, you should clean it regularly.
Spray water onto a 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
wipe dry with a soft cloth.
CAUTION
Don’t use sharp objects to clean with, as
they are likely to scratch the surface.
Don’t use Thinner, Car detergent, bleach,
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
fridge freezer with a weak solution of
backing soda and water, 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 follows:
1. Remove existing food and accessories
baskets, unplug the appliance from the
main 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 main socket.
Door gasket cleaning
Take care to keep door gasket clean.
Sticky food and drinks can cause gasket to
stick to the cabinet and tear when you
open the door. Wash gasket with a mild
detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry
it thoroughly after cleaning.
CAUTION
Only after the door seals are completely
dry should the appliance be powered on
