Regular cleaning
It is recommended to wash the inside of the
refrigerator in 3-4 weeks time using lukewarm water
then wipe it (it is practical to clean the inside of the
freezer and defrost it at a time).
Household cleaner or soap must not be used.
After breaking the circuit wash the appliance with
lukewarm water then wipe it. Clean the door gasket
with clean water. After cleaning apply voltage to the
appliance.
It is recommended to remove the dust and dirt
collected on the back of the refrigerator and the
condenser and to clean the evaporative tray on top of
the compressor once or twice a year.
When the refrigerator is not in use
In case the appliance will not be used for a long time
follow these steps:
Break the circuit of the appliance.
Remove foods from the refrigerator.
Defrost and clean it as written before.
Leave the door open to avoid a build up of air inside.
Pull out the mains plug from the mains socket, so both
parts of the appliance are out of operation.
Open the doors of both parts of the appliance and
clean the refrigerator according to 'Regular cleaning'.
Maintain and clean the freezer as following:
Sweep the melting water with a cloth or sponge off the
cooling plate. The melting water swept down gathers
in the bottom of the appliance and can be removed
with a hygroscopic cloth or a sponge.
Wipe the surfaces after defrosting.
Put the mains plug into the mains socket and put
foods taken out back to their places.
It is recommended to operate the appliance at the
highest position of the thermostatic control for some
hours so that it can reach the sufficient storing
temperature as soon as possible.
