Other Useful Information
Cleaning the appliance
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including the interior accessories, should
be cleaned regularly.
• Set both temperature controls to the minimum positions and unplug the appliance.
• Remove your frozen and refrigerated food from the compartments. Keep the food
temporarily in another fridge or cooler bag to keep defrosting to a minimum.
• Remove all shelves and the crisper drawer.
• Wash the inside surfaces and the interior accessories with a damp, warm cloth
moistened in a water and baking soda solution (about 2 tablespoons of baking soda
to 1 litre of water). Wring excess water out of the cloth before cleaning around the
temperature controls or any electrical parts. Rinse and wipe dry with a soft cloth.
• Clean the outside of the unit with a damp, well wrung out cloth.
• Keep the gaskets around the doors clean and free of debris.
• After everything is dry, reinstall the shelves and crisper drawer and place the
appliance back into service.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury, always switch off the appliance and
disconnect it from the power supply before cleaning or maintenance.
WARNING!
• Never clean the unit with an abrasive, acid, oil or solvent based cleaning agent, or
with abrasive pads or scourers. Never use flammable fluids or sprays for cleaning
as the fumes from these substances can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in
the electrical components, danger of electric shock! Hot vapours can lead to the
damage of plastic parts.
• The appliance must be completely dry before it is placed back into service.
• Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the
juice from orange peel, butyric acid, or cleansers that contain acetic acid. Do not
allow such substances to come into contact with the appliance parts.
Defrosting the appliance
Manually defrosting the freezer compartment is not necessary as this is a frost-free
appliance which will be defrosted automatically.
Regularly examine the drain in the refrigerator for defrosted water. If necessary, clean
the drain. If the drain is blocked, water will collect in the bottom of the appliance.
