DEFROSTING, CLEANING AND CARE
THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the
back wall of the refrigerator compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not working
and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray on top of the
compressor (Fig. 1), where it evaporates.
REGULARLY CLEAN THE APPLIANCE.
Note: before cleaning the cooling device and its rear compartment part,
the device must be disconnected from the mains by unplugging.
•
Protect the appliance inner surfaces and plastic parts from fats, acids and sauces. In
case of accidental spills – immediately clean with warm soapy water or dishwashing
detergent. Wipe dry.
•
Regularly clean the hermetic gaskets of the doors. Wipe dry.
•
At least once a year clean dust away from the back part of the appliance body and the
compressor. A soft brush, electrostatic cloth or vacuum cleaner may be used for
cleaning.
•
Regularly clean the thaw water channel space in the refrigerator
with a special cleaner for that purpose (see fig.).
•
DO NOT use detergents containing abrasive particles, acid, alcohol
or benzene for cleaning the appliance inner and outer surfaces. DO
NOT use for cleaning cloths or sponges that have coarse surfaces
intended for scrubbing.
•
If the appliance is to be left switched off for an extended period,
leave its doors open.
