Cleaning and care
52
Cleaning the interior and ac-
cessories
The appliance should be cleaned
regularly (at least once a month).
Remove soiling immediately to pre-
vent it from drying on.
Clean the
interior
with a clean
sponge, lukewarm water and a little
washing-up liquid.
After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
Remove the trim before cleaning the
door shelf in a dishwasher.
The following parts
cannot be cleaned
in a dishwasher
:
– stainless steel frames of adjustable
shelves
– the protective strips at the back of
the adjustable shelves
– all drawers and the compartment lid
(depending on model)
– the bottle rack
– the cool pack
These accessories should all be hand
washed.
Risk of damage as a result of ex-
cessively high dishwasher temperat-
ures.
Parts of the refrigeration appliance
may become unusable, e.g. deform,
if they are washed in the dishwasher
at more than 55 °C.
For dishwasher-safe parts, only use
dishwasher programmes with a max-
imum temperature of 55 °C.
Contact with natural dyes from car-
rots, tomatoes and ketchup, etc., may
discolour the plastic parts in the dish-
washer. This discolouration does not
affect the stability of the parts.
The following parts
can be cleaned in
the dishwasher
:
– the bottle holder, butter dish, egg
tray, ice cube tray
(depending on model)
– the bottle shelf and shelves in the
door (with stainless steel trim re-
moved)
– the adjustable shelves (without white
protective strips)
– the holder for the charcoal filter
(available as an optional accessory)
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently so that con-
densate can drain away unhindered.
Use a straw or similar to clear the
drain if necessary.
The PerfectFresh zone drawers are on
telescopic runners. Wipe the tele-
scopic runners with a damp cloth to
clean them.
