Other Useful Information (Cont.)

WARNING!

•  Never clean the unit with an abrasive, acid, oil or solvent based cleaning agent, or 

with abrasive pads or scourers. Never use flammable fluids or sprays for cleaning 
as the fumes from these substances can create a fire hazard or explosion.

•  Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in 

the electrical components, danger of electric shock! Hot vapours can lead to the 
damage of plastic parts. 

•  The appliance must be completely dry before it is placed back into service.

IMPORTANT!

•  Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the 

juice from orange peel, butyric acid, or cleansers that contain acetic acid. Do not 
allow such substances to come into contact with the appliance parts.

Changing a shelf position

Grip the shelf, lift it slightly and then pull it straight out of the compartment, keeping it 
flat. To install the shelf at a different level, slide the shelf carefully into the appropriate 
groove, holding it firmly to prevent breakage. 

Power failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the 
temperature inside your fridge, if you minimise the number of times the door is 
opened. However, if the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need 
to take proper steps to protect your food. 

Going away?

•  Short vacation: Leave the fridge operating during vacations of less than a month.
•  Long vacation: If you are not going to use the bar fridge for longer periods, remove 

all food and unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent 
odour and mould growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open, if necessary. 
(Restrict children’s access to the room with the open fridge to avoid creating a child 
entrapment risk.)

Moving the fridge

•  Unplug the fridge and remove all food from inside. Securely tape down the drawer 

and shelves and tape the door shut. Turn the levelling feet up to the base to avoid 
damage. 

•   

CAUTION:

 Never pick up the refrigerator by the door.

•  Protect the outside of the unit with a blanket or similar soft material and make sure 

the fridge stays secure in the upright position during transportation.
