Cleaning and Mainenance
WARNING:

Always disconnect the appliance from the power
supply before cleaning and user maintenance.

Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning the appli-
ance; moisture could enter electrical components.
Risk of electric shock! Hot steam could damage
the plastic parts.

The unit must be dry before restarting operation.
CAUTION:

Do not use a wire brush or other sharp, abrasive
items.

Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.

Cleaning the appliance including interior
To keep dirt and germs at bay, clean the appliance
regularly!

First remove the contents of the appliance and
store it in a cool place.

Clean the interior of the appliance, the exterior
surfaces and the accessories with lukewarm wa-
ter and a mild cleaning agent; or with a clean,
damp microfiber cloth without cleaning agent.

Clean the thaw water discharge channel / opening
carefully e.g. with a pipe cleaner.

After everything has dried thoroughly, you can put
the appliance back into operation.

Depending on the model:
At least once a year,
wipe off the dust that has accumulated on the rear
wall of the unit and on the condenser (metal
grille). Use a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner for
this purpose.
Cleaning / replacing the door seal
Regularly check the seal for dirt, damage and air
tightness!
Checking the seal for air tightness

Clamp a thin piece of paper at various points for
testing. The paper must be equally difficult to pull
through at all points.
Cleaning the gasket

Clean the gasket with clear water only!

CAUTION, grease and oil makes the seal porous
and brittle. Wipe up grease or oil immediately with
a damp, clean cloth.
Replacing the seal

Remove the contents of the appliance and, if nec-
essary, defrost the unit. Pay attention to how the
old gasket is attached. Most gaskets are only
plugged in.

Remove the worn gasket rubber by removing it
from the groove. Carefully clean the appliance lid
and the groove below the rubber and remove any
adhesive residue.

Attach the new rubber. If necessary, heat the rub-
ber seal with a hair dryer or hot water and shape it
by hand. Start pressing the gasket in one corner
and then press it around the lid into the groove
provided for this purpose.

Continue to check the seal regularly for dirt and
damage!

Never use metal objects (e.g. knifes) to remove ice
from the evaporator. Otherwise, it can be damaged.
NOTE:
To speed up the defrosting process, make use of the
included ice scraper.

the appliance regularly as follows:

To start the defrosting process, disconnect the ap-
pliance from the power supply.
