Cleaning and maintenance
Check and clean the cover
seals
NOTICE
The door seals can get damaged by im-
proper handling.
■
The door seals are sensitive to oil and
grease – making the rubber porous
and brittle. Only clean with clean wa-
ter.
■
Only use soft cloths.
The cover seals must be checked regularly
so that no air can enter the chest freezer.
1. To test them, clamp a thin piece of paper
in various places. The paper should be
difficult to pull through at all points.
2. If the seal is not uniform everywhere:
Warm the seal in the appropriate places
in front of you with a hair dryer and pull it
out with your fingers.
3. Only clean dirty seals with clean water.
Clean exterior
• Use only light pH-neutral soapy water.
• Wipe dry.
• Regularly remove dust deposits from the
ventilation grilles on the back and on the
right-hand side of the chest freezer to
minimise energy consumption.
Interior light
The LED interior lighting is maintenance-free
and not replaceable.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■
Before cleaning, unplug the mains
plug from the socket or isolate/un-
screw the fuse.
■
When pulling out the mains plug, al-
ways take hold of the mains plug it-
self and never the mains cable.
CAUTION
Dangers for children and people with
limited physical, sensory or mental ca-
pacity!
■
Cleaning and user maintenance must
not be carried out by children unless
they are supervised.
NOTICE
The door seals can get damaged by im-
proper handling.
■
Never use harsh, soda, acid, solvent
or abrasive cleaners. These attack the
plastic surfaces. All-purpose cleaners
with a neutral pH are recommended.
■
Use care products only on the outer
surfaces.
■
Never spray the device with a water
jet (e.g. high-pressure cleaner).
■
Only use soft cloths.
