Cleaning and care
For hygienic reasons the appliance
(including exterior and interior
accessories) should be cleaned
regularly at least every two months.
Caution!
The appliance must not be
connected to the mains during
cleaning. Danger of electrical shock!
Before cleaning switch the appliance
off and remove the plug from the
mains socket.
Exterior cleaning
Clean your appliance regularly to
maintain its good appearance.
-Wipe the digital panel and display
panel with a clean, soft cloth.
-Spray water onto the cleaning cloth
instead of spraying directly on the
surface of the appliance. This helps
ensure an even distribution of
moisture to the surface.
-Clean the doors, handles and
cabinet surfaces with a mild
detergent and then wiped dry with a
soft cloth.
Caution
!
-Don't use sharp objects as they are
likely to scratch the surface.
-Don't use Thinner, Car detergent,
Clorox,
ethereal
oil,
abrasive
cleansers or organic solvent such as
Benzene for cleaning. They may
damage the surface of the appliance
and may cause tire.
Interior cleaning
You should clean the appliance
interior regularly. It will be easier to
clean when food stocks are low.
Wipe the inside of the fridge freezer
with a weak solution of soda
bicarbonate, and then rinse with
warm water using a wrung-out
sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry
before replacing the shelves and
baskets. Thoroughly dry all surfaces
and removable parts.
Although
this
appliance
automatically defrosts, a layer of
frost may occur on
the freezer
compartment's mentor walls if the
freezer door is opened frequently or
kept open too long.
However, complete defrosting will
become necessary approximately
four times per year, or if the frost
layer exceeds 4 mm (1/4”) affecting
the system efficiency. Complete
defrosting should be carried out if
frost cannot be scraped away, or if it
begins to interfere with the food
storage. Choose a time when the
supply of food is low and proceed as
follows:
1. Remove existing food and
accessories baskets, unplug the
appliance from the mains power and
leave the doors open. Ventilate the
room thoroughly to accelerate the
thawing process.
2. Scrape away as much frost as
possible using the plastic scraper
(scraper not included).
3. If necessary, place a cloth soaked
with warm water on the frost layer’s
surface to accelerate the thawing
process.
4. When defrosting is completed,
clean
your freezer as described –see
interior cleaning.
Caution!
Don't use sharp objects to
remove frost from the freezer
compartment. Only after the interior
is completely dry should the
appliance be switched back on and
plugged back into the mains socket.
