10 Maintenance
10.1 Cleaning and care
If the appliance requires cleaning, proceed as follows:
1. Before beginning with repair or cleaning works, make sure the device
has been disconnected from the power socket (pull the power plug!)
and has cooled down.
2. Clean the interior (including the rear wall and bottom) with warm water
and a mild cleaning agent. Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents!
3. Dry all surfaces carefully.
4. After cleaning, reconnect the refrigerator to the mains supply.
5. Never clean the appliance with steam cleaning equipment.
6. Regularly clean the refrigerator and also check the condensation water drain.
7. If the light is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agent with a light of the same size, power and shape.
8. We recommend annual cleaning of the condenser to maintain performance.
