PART 8: REGULAR MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the refrigerator

Before commencing to clean the refrigerator disconnect it from the power source.

Use a clean sponge or a soft cloth and a gentle washing detergent dissolved in warm water. Do not use coarse
or abrasive cleaning products.

Wash the refrigerator well and wipe dry.

Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated cleaning agents, bleaches or cleaning products containing kerosene
on the plastic or rubber parts.

Never use paper towels or window cleaners on the plastic parts.

Clean the inside of the appliance at regular intervals.
• We recommend that you clean the inside area of the refrigerator at least once per month and the freezer

after each defrosting process.

• From both areas take out all the food and place them in a cool place.

• Remove all removable parts from the appliance.

• Various parts inside the refrigerator/freezer are generally not suitable for washing in a dishwasher. These

parts should be washed in warm water with dish washing detergent. Never use an undiluted cleaning
detergent and under no circumstances use abrasive or acidic, i.e. chemical cleaning agents. We recommend
a general purpose detergent with a neutral pH.

The use of steam cleaning appliances is extremely dangerous and so is strictly forbidden.

• Wipe the inside area and the accessories with clean water and dry everything using a dry cloth. Then allow

the appliance to ventilate for 3 – 4 minutes.

• Do not damage or remove the rating label on the rear side of the appliance – it is important for connection,

repairs and subsequent disposal of the appliance.

• Ensure that water does not come into contact with parts inside the appliance that are under live electric

current.

• Ensure that the water from the defrosting process can fl ow away freely through the drainage channel.

From time to time clean out the drainage opening using a cotton bud.

• Cleaning water should not run through the drainage channel for defrosted water. This causes the

evaporation bowl to overfl ow and cleaning water fl ows on to the fl oor.

TAKING OUT OF OPERATION FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD

If you are not going to use the refrigerator for an extended period of time, do the following:

Disconnect the refrigerator from the power source by pulling it out of the power socket. Clean out the inside
and dry it out as described in the part Cleaning the refrigerator. Leave the door open to prevent an unpleasant
odour forming inside.
