Cleaning the interior of the

least once a month.
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove under certain circumstances.
Surfaces may suffer discolouration or
damage.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Clean the
interior
with a clean
sponge, lukewarm water and a little
washing-up liquid.
After cleaning, wipe with a damp
cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently using a cotton

refrigeration appliance sufficiently for
a short while and to prevent odour
