Never use cleaning agents contain-
ing abrasive substances such as
sand, soda, acids or chemical sol-
vents.
"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Stainless steel surfaces should be
cleaned with a proprietary stainless
steel cleaner following the manufac-
turer’s instructions on the packaging.
Make sure that no water can pene-
trate into the electronic unit or into
the light.
Do not let water get into the drain-
age channel and drain hole when
cleaning.
Never use steam cleaning appara-
tus to defrost or clean the appliance.
Pressurised steam could reach the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
The data plate located inside the ap-
pliance must not be removed. It
contains information which is re-
quired in the event of a service call.
Before cleaning
^
Switch the appliance off and remove
the plug.
^
Take any food out of the appliance
and store it in a cool place.
^
Take out any removable parts e.g.
shelves for cleaning.
Cleaning the outer casing, the
interior and accessories
^
Clean the refrigerator section and the
Stayfresh (0 °C) zone at least once a
month.
^
Accessories and shelves should all
be hand washed. The butter dish is,
however, dishwasher safe.
^
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently, so that conden-
sate can drain away unhindered. Use
a straw or similar to clear the drain if
necessary.
^
Use a suitable stainless steel cleaner
to clean stainless steel surfaces.
- Apply the cleaner sparingly to a
dry, fluff free cloth and then rub it into
the surface following the direction of
the grain.
^
After cleaning, wipe the outer casing,
the interior and accessories with a
damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
Leave the door open to air the appli-
ance for a short while.
Ventilation gaps
^
The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up
of dust will increase the appliance’s
energy consumption.
