CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
•
Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the electricity socket.
•
Do not clean the appliance with water.
•
The refrigerator and the freezer should be periodically cleaned using a lukewarm
water solution and edible soda.
•
Clean accessories separately using soapy water. Do not use a washing machine.
•
Do not use abrasive products, detergents, and soaps. After
washing, rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. After cleaning,
use dry hands to plug the appliance into the electricity socket.
•
Clean the condenser (the back part of the appliance) using a brush
a minimum of once a year. This will increase productivity and save
energy.
Recommendation
If you are not using the appliance for a long time (for example during
summer holidays), disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply,
clean it and leave the door open. This will prevent the origination of
mould and odour.
Defrosting the refrigerator
•
Defrosting occurs automatically during operation in part of the refrigerator; water flows into the
evaporation channel and is automatically evaporated.
•
The evaporator channel and the hole for collecting water (in the rear part of the shelf for fresh foods)
should be periodically cleaned. This will prevent the accumulation of water in the lower part.
Freezer defrosting
•
Frost build-up in a freezer must be periodically removed at least twice a year.
•
Do not use sharp metal objects to remove the frost build-up. They can break a circuit and cause irreparable
damage to the appliance. Use a plastic scraper.
•
Defrosting should be carried out when the frost on the shelves becomes thicker than 5 mm.
•
The day before defrosting set the thermostat to the MAX/5 position to freeze the food completely.
•
During defrosting, the frozen food should be packed into several layers of paper and stored in a cold place.
This will keep the temperature of your food low for a long time.
