8 Care and maintenance
▸ Clean the defrost drainage channel with
the green cleaner that is in it with an up-
and-down and circular motion.
If milk has been spilt accidentally and has ended up in the defrost drainage chan-
nel:
► Push some kitchen towel into the drain hole and try to absorb as much liquid
as possible.
► If more than 1 dl has flowed into the defrost drainage channel and/or a strong
odour develops after a while: call Customer Services.
If any foreign objects get into the defrost drainage channel:
► Carefully insert a flexible plastic object (such as a cable tie) into the drain hole
and try to remove any foreign objects.
► Do not use hard or sharp objects, or the defrost drainage channel and sur-
rounding components could get damaged.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
A thick layer of ice will prevent the cold from being transferred to the frozen food. There-
fore, the freezer compartment should be defrosted if a lot of ice has formed. When de-
frosting, keep frozen food as cold and insulated as possible, e.g. by wrapping it in news-
paper.
Do not use pointed objects to remove ice or food that has frozen on solid. Do not
use electrical heaters or naked flames for defrosting.
▸ Switch the appliance «off» using the button.
▸ Absorb the water created when the ice melts with a sponge.
▸ After defrosting, clean the interior and dry thoroughly.
▸ Start the appliance again using the button.
8.6 When the appliance is not in use
▸ If the appliance is not to be used for an extended period of time, switch it off.
▸ Empty and clean the appliance.
▸ Leave the refrigerator and freezer compartment doors open.
