Notes:
• It is not advisable to heat the freezer compartment directly with hot
water or a hairdryer while defrosting, to avoid the interior warping.
• It is not advisable to scrape ice or extract food from the containers
in which they were frozen with sharp objects or wood utensils, to
avoid damaging the interior of the compartment or the surface of
the containers.
• To switch off the appliance, set the thermostat to position “0”.
• The refrigerator should be defrosted at least once a month. If the
door is opened frequently or if the refrigerator is used in extremely
humid environments, it is advisable to defrost it every two weeks.
2.3. Maintenance
For safety reasons, the inside of the appliance, including accessories,
should be cleaned regularly.
• Essential oils and organic solvents, e.g. lemon juice, juice from
orange peel, or cleansers that contain acetic acid can damage
plastic parts. Do not allow such substances to come into contact
with the appliance parts.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaners.
• Remove the food from the refrigerator, cover it well and place it in
a cool place.
• Switch the appliance off and unplug it from the outlet, or switch off
the circuit breaker, or remove the fuse.
• Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and
lukewarm water. You can also use common washing-up detergents.
After cleaning, rinse with clean water and dry.
• Dust accumulation in the condenser increases energy consumption.
Therefore, carefully clean the condenser at the back of the appliance
once a year using a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
• Check the water drain hole on the back wall of the refrigerator
compartment.
• If the drain hole is clogged, clear it using a thin round object, taking
care not to damage the structure with sharp objects.
• After cleaning the compartment thoroughly, place the appliance
back into operation.
Notes:
• The appliance must not be plugged in during cleaning as there is a
risk of electric shock. Before cleaning, switch the appliance off and
unplug it from the outlet, or switch off the circuit breaker, or remove
the fuse.
• Never clean the unit with a steam cleaner. Moisture could
accumulate in electric components, which can cause electric shock.
Hot vapors can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
• The appliance must be completely dry before it is put back into
service.
