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 sock-
et.
2. Take the chilled food out of the fridge and
take the frozen food out of the freezer.
3. Ensure that your food is kept cool enough.
If you do not have the opportunity to store
the chilled and frozen food in another
fridge/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 compartments (8) and draw-
ers (9) and (10) from the freezer. Wash
them in warm water with washing-up liq-
uid and dry thoroughly.
5. To clean the fridge, remove the fresh food
drawer (13), the fruit/vegetable draw-
er (6) and the glass shelves (2) and (5)
as well as the door shelves (4) and bottle
racks (7).
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, sim-
ply 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.
11. Wipe the appliance’s interior dry.
12. Only clean the door seals with clean wa-
ter; they are sensitive to oil and fat.
13. Replace the glass shelves, the drawers
and the door shelves.
14. Return the food to the fridge or freezer.
15. Insert the mains plug back in the socket
and activate Quick freezing as described

temperature of –18 °C, switch the tem-
peratures in the fridge and freezer back
to the previous values as described in
section “Setting the operating modes” on
page EN-14.
