11.1 Cleaning the refrigerator
!
A
➤
Clean the refrigerator regularly and as soon as it becomes dirty with a damp cloth.
➤
Make sure that no water drips into the seals. This can damage the electronics.
➤
Wipe the refrigerator dry with a cloth after cleaning.
➤
Check the condensate drain regularly.
Clean the condensate drain when necessary. If it is blocked, the condensate collects on the bottom of the
refrigerator.
11.2 Defrosting the refrigerator manually
The refrigerator compartment has an automatic cyclic defrost system, which prevents excessive frost forming.
However, if the refrigerator is used for extended periods in high humidity and/or high ambient temperature con-
ditions, frost may build up on the rear interior wall, which can reduce the cooling performance. In this case a manual
defrost is recommended.
The freezer compartment will require periodic manual defrosting, recommended if the frost layer is more than
3 mm.
A
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Empty the contents.
3. Put a cloth in the compartment and the refrigerator to absorb any excess water.
4. Leave the doors open.
✔
Most of the refrigerator compartment condensate drains off through a hose at the back of the refrigerator and
is routed outside the vehicle.
✔
The freezer compartment condensate collects at the bottom of the freezer.
5. Wipe both compartments dry with a cloth.
WARNING! Electrocution hazard
Always disconnect the refrigerator from the mains before you clean and service it.
NOTICE! Damage hazard

cess.
