6.1. Avoiding Bad Odours
Materials that may cause odour are not used in the
production of our refrigerators. However, odour may be
emitted if foods are stored improperly or if the inner
surface of the product is not cleaned as required. Please
consider the following to avoid this problem:
•
It is important that the refrigerator is kept clean.
Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause odour. For
this reason, clean your refrigerator with carbonate
solved in water every 15 days. Never use detergents
or soap.
•
Keep your foods in closed vessels. Microorganisms
emitted from vessels without a cover may cause
unpleasant odours.
•
Never keep expired or spoiled foods in your
refrigerator.
6.2. Protection of plastic surfaces
Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your
refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage
the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. If oil is spilled
or smeared onto the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse
the relevant part of the surface with warm water
immediately.
6.3. Cleaning the Inner Surface
To clean the inner surfaces and all removable parts,
wash them with a mild solution comprising soap, water
and carbonate. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Prevent the
water from contacting the lighting means and control
panel.
A
ATTENTION:
Do not use vinegar, rubbing
alcohol or other alcohol-based
cleaning agents on any of the
inner surfaces.
6.4. Stainless Steel Outer Surfaces
Use a stainless steel cleaning agent that is non-abrasive
and apply it with a lint-free, soft cloth. For polishing,
wipe the surface softly with a damp microfiber cloth and
use dry wash-leather. Always follow the strands of the
stainless steel.
