and a little washing-up liquid. Never use the cleaning
agent neat and on no account use any abrasive
or acid, i.e. chemical cleaning products. A general all
purpose Ph neutral cleaning agent is recommended
.
The use of steam cleaning appliances is
extremely dangerous and is therefore strictly
forbidden.
■ Wipe the interiors and accessories with clean water
and dry everything with a cloth. Then leave
the appliance to air for 3-4 minutes.
■ Do not damage or remove the rating plate from
the inside of the appliance - it is important for the
after- sales service and for the subsequent disposal.
■ Take care that no cleaning water comes into
contact with current-carrying parts inside the appliance.
■ If the rear of the appliance is fitted with a
heat exchanger, - also known as a
condenser - periodically remove any
accumulation of dust and fluff. Dust and fluff
obstruct the dissipation of heat from the
interior and considerably increase the energy
consumption. The best way to remove dust from
the heat exchanger is to use a soft brush or a
feather whisk.
■ Make certain that the water from defrosting can
run off unhindered via the channel. Clean out
the drain aperture occasionally, using a cotton
wool bud or similer.
■
No cleaning water is to ren through the
defrost water drain hole. This would
cause the evaporation trap to overflow and
cleaning water would spill out on to the floor.
17 Defrosting
a) Fridge
Whilst the compressor (refrigeration unit) is running, frost
and condensation can form on the rear wall. These
do not have to be removed as the fridge
automatically defrosts.
The defrost water runs from the channel via the
drain hole, into a vessel from which it evaporates.
.
b) Freezer compartment (where fitted)
The freezer compartment does not automatically defrost
as the frozen produce is not permitted to defrost.
Defrost the freezer compartment occasionally, at
the latest however when a ca. 5 mm thick coating of
ice has formed. Carry out the actions described in the
chapter
"Cleaning and care" and the following steps.
Potential hazards
Never use electrical appliances such as
hairdryers, hot air fans, steam cleaners,
defrosting sprays or open flames (e.g. candles)
for defrosting the freezer compartment.
The plastic interior could melt and the emerging
foam - gas could be ignited by sparks or open flame.
Never use a steam cleaning appliance to melt
coatings of ice in the appliance (extremely high
risk of electric shock)
Hints
■ Remove the frozen produce and wrap it in
several layers of newspaper of blankets.
■ Keep the frozen produce in a cool place
until the freezer compartment is once more ready to
use.
■ Leave the door of the freezer compattment open.
■ The layers of frost and ice in the freezer compartment
are formed through normal operation. Afrer a
certain thickness is exceeded, these act as
insulation and impair the transfer of cold.
■ Do not scrape off this frost or ice coating as this can
damage the evaporator surface.
■ Carry out defrosting as quickly as possible to prevent
the removed produce from defrosting.
■ Continuously remove the water with a sponge
or pull out and emply the water tray underneath,
in the fridge compartment (not fitted to all models)
■ Pull out the plug - where fitted - from the water drain
hole and replace the water tray in its guideway.
■ You can speed up the defrosting by placing a vessel
of hot (not boiling) water with a pot stand
in the freezer compartment. In this case close
the freezer compartment door.
■ Take care that the water tray - where fitted -
does not overflow.
■ When the freezer compartment is fully
defrosted, empty the water collected in the tray into your
kitchen sink.
■ Replace the plug in the water drain hole and replace
the water tray.
■ Wipe the freezer compartment dry and replace
the produce.
■ Re-connect the power supply to your appliance.
■ Switch the appliance back on with the
temperature controller (see chapter
"Switching on/off - Temperature selection" )
and - where fitted - press the supercool
button ( see chapter Supercooling function"
■ Close the appliance door.
18 Troubleshooting guide
High quality manufacturing processes and the use of the
latest refrigerating and freezing technology will basically
ensure the trouble-free functioning of your appliance.
If you suspect any fault, before contacting your nearest
service department directly or via your dealer, make sure
you have followed all instructions and advice given in this
user manual.
