Regular Cleaning - Electrolux ERB 8643 Instruction Book

GB
The most typical case of clogging up in the melting water
outlet when you put food wrapped in some paper into the
appliance and this paper contacts back plate of the
refrigerator and freezes to it. If you remove the food right at
this moment the paper will tear and it can cause clogging up
in the outlet by getting into it. So you are asked to be careful
- because of the above - when placing foods wrapped in
paper into the appliance.
In case of increased demand e.g. during heatwaves,
the refrigerator temporarily happens to operate
constantly - during this the automatic defrosting does not
work.
Remaining small ice and frost stains on back plate of the
refrigerator after defrosting period is not abnormal.
The freezer can not be equipped with automatic defrosting
set since the deep-frozen and frozen foods do not endure
melting temperature.
When small frost and ice occurs scrape off and remove
frost and ice coating with the supplied plastic scraper.
When ice coating is so thick that it cannot be removed with
the plastic scraper, the cooling gill have to be defrosted.
Frequency of defrosting depends on usage (generally 2-3
times a year).
Take the frozen foods out of the appliance, and put them
into a basket lined with paper or cloth. Store them in a
possibly cool place or replace them into another
refrigerator.
Pull out the mains plug from the mains socket, so both parts
of the appliance are out of operation.
Open the doors of both parts of the appliance and clean the
refrigerator according to 'Regular cleaning'. Maintain and
clean the freezer as following:
Sweep off the melting water with a cloth or sponge in
direction of sides of the cooling plates. The melting water
swept down gathers in the outlet channel practically formed
in the bottom of the appliance and can be removed
according to figure.
Put an adequately high bowl or dish under the outlet.
The bowl in figure is not a piece of accessories to the
appliance!
Wipe the surfaces after defrosting and leading the water
out.
Put the mains plug into the mains socket and put foods
taken out back to their places.
It is recommended to operate the appliance at the highest
position of the thermostatic control for some hours so that
it can reach the sufficient storing temperature as soon as
possible.

Regular cleaning

It is recommended to wash the inside of the refrigerator in
3-4 weeks time using lukewarm water then wipe it (it is
practical to clean the inside of the freezer and defrost it at a
time).
Household cleaner or soap must not be used.
After breaking the circuit wash the appliance with lukewarm
water then wipe it. Clean the door gasket with clean water.
After cleaning apply voltage to the appliance.
It is recommended to remove the dust and dirt collected on
the back of the refrigerator and the condenser and to clean
the evaporative tray on top of the compressor once or twice
a year.
