Maintenance and cleaning
Service life of the product is increased if it is
regularly cleaned
B
WARNING:
First unplug the product
before cleaning your refrigerator.
•
Never use any sharp and abrasive tools, soap,
household cleaners, detergent and wax polish
for cleaning.
•
Dissolve one teaspoon of baking soda in a
pint of water. Soak a cloth with the solution
and wring it out thoroughly. Wipe the interior
of the appliance with this cloth and then dry
thoroughly.
•
Make sure that no water enters the lamp
housing and other electrical items.
•
Clean the door with a damp cloth. To remove
door and body shelves, remove all of its
contents. Remove door shelves by moving them
upwards. After cleaning, slide them from top to
bottom to install.
•
Never use cleaning agents or water that
contain chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and
chromium coated parts of the product. Chlorine
causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.
•
Use only lukewarm water and a soft cloth to
remove fingerprints from plastic parts. Wipe
dry.
6.1. Avoiding bad odors
Materials that may cause odor are not used
in the production of our appliances. However,
inappropriate food preserving conditions and not
cleaning the inner surface of the appliance as
required can bring forth the problem of odor.
Therefore, clean the refrigerator with baking soda
dissolved in water every 15 days.
•
Keep the food in closed containers.
Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered
containers can cause unpleasant odors.
•
Never keep food that has passed its expiration
date and spoiled in the refrigerator.
6.2. Protecting the plastic surfaces
Clean with warm water immediately as any oil may
cause damage when left in contact with plastic
surfaces.
6.3. Door Glass
Remove the protective film on the glass.
There is a coating on the surface of the glass.This
coating minimizes the stain build-up and helps to
remove the possible stains and dirt easily.
Glass that is not protected with such a coating
may be subject to persistent binding of air or water
based organic or inorganic dirt such as limescale,
mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides
and silicones that can easily and quickly cause
stains or material damage. Keeping the glass
clean becomes too difficult despite the regular
cleaning. Consequently, the appearance and the
transparency of the glass deteriorates. Harsh
and corrosive cleaning methods and compounds
will intensify these defects and speed up the
deterioration process.
Water-based cleaning products that are not alkaline
and corrosive must be used for regular cleaning
purposes.
Non-alkaline and non-corrosive materials must
be used for cleaning so that the service life of this
coating lasts for a long time.
These panes of glass are tempered to increase
their durability against impacts and breaking.
A safety film is also applied to their rear surfaces
as an extra safety measure in order to prevent
them from causing damage to their surroundings in
case of a breakage.
