Defrosting, cleaning and maintenance
Automatic defrosting
The wine cellar is defrosted automatically.
Defrost water runs through a pipe and is
collected in a tray above the compressor
where the heat generated by the compressor
causes it to evaporate. The defrost water
tray should be cleaned at intervals.
Cleaning
Before cleaning the appliance, unplug it from
the main supply. The cabinet is best cleaned
using warm water (max. 65°C) with a little
mild detergent. Never use cleaning agents
that scour. Use a soft cloth. Rinse with clean
water and dry thoroughly. The defrost water
channel, in which condensa- tion from the
evaporator runs, is located at the bottom of
the rear inside wall of the cabinet and must
be kept clean. Add a few drops of
disinfectant, e.g. Rodalon, to the defrost
water drain a couple of times a year, and
clean the drain using a pipe cleaner or
similar. Never use sharp or pointed imple-
ments.
The sealing strip around the door must be
cleaned regularly to prevent discolouration
and prolong service life. Use clean water.
After cleaning the sealing strip, check that it
continues to provide a tight seal.
Dust collecting on the condenser on the rear
of the cabinet, the compressor and in the
compressor compartment is best removed
using a vacuum cleaner.
