Cleaning the interior
The appliance does not need to be defrosted,
as it is equipped with an automatic defrost
function. Frost and ice are automatically de-
frosted and the thaw water is collected in a
thaw water container on the reverse side of
the appliance. The thaw water evaporates as
a result of the heat generated by the motor.
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
2. Take the chilled food out of the fridge com-
partment, take the frozen food out of the
freezer zone, and take the chilled/frozen
food out of the convertible zone.
3. Ensure that your food is kept cool enough.
If you do not have the opportunity to store
the frozen food in another freezer in the
meantime, wrap it up in a thick layer of
newspaper and store it in a cool room or in
an insulated bag while it is defrosting.
4. Remove the drawers (14) from the freezer
zone and the drawers (10) from the con-
vertible zone. Wash them in warm water
with washing-up liquid and dry thoroughly.
5. To clean the fridge compartment, remove
the fresh food drawer (7), the Zero star
zone (8), the moist zone (16) and the glass
shelves (2) and (5).
6. To remove the glass shelves, lift them
slightly at the front and then pull them out
of the guide rail.
7. In order to remove the door shelves, simply
pull them upwards out of the holders.
8. Clean all of the parts in lukewarm soapy
water. Then dry everything thoroughly.
9. Wash the interior with warm water and
washing up liquid.
10. When wiping clean, add a few drops of
vinegar to the water to prevent mould
from forming.
Wipe the appliance’s interior dry.
11. Only clean the door seals with clean wa-
ter; they are sensitive to oil and fat.
12. Replace the glass shelves, the drawers
and the door shelves.
13. Return the food to the fridge compartment
or freezer zone or the convertible zone.
14. Plug the mains plug back in the socket
and activate quick freezing as described
in section “Quick freezing” on page EN-15.
15. As soon as the freezer zone has reached
a temperature of –18 °C, switch the tem-
peratures in the fridge compartment and
freezer zone back to the previous values
as described in section “Setting the oper-
ating modes” on page EN-15.
