PART 8: CLEANING AND CARE
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be cleaned regularly.
The fridge should be cleaned and maintained at least every two months.

Electrical Shock Hazard
The appliance should not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Before cleaning switch the appliance
off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
Notice!
• Remove the food from the appliance before cleaning. Store them in a cool place, well covered.
• Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical components.
• Hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
• Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the juice from orange peel,
butyric acid, cleanser that contain acetic acid. Do not allow such substances to come into contact with
appliance parts.
• Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
• Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water. Commercially available
dish washing detergents may also be used.
• After cleaning wipe with fresh water and clean dish cloth.
• Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption, clean the condenser at the back of
the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.

Why defrosting
• Water contained in food or getting into air inside the fridge be opening doors may form a frost layer
inside. It will weaken the refrigeration when the frost is thick. While it is more than 10mm thick, you should
defrost.
