Cleaning the appliance
The refrigerator does not require defrosting, as ice accumulated
on the back wall of the refrigerator compartment interior is melted
automatically.
The accumulated ice is thawed when the compressor is not
operating. The drops will drip through the opening in the
refrigerator back wall into a container above the compressor,
from where they will evaporate.
If an excessive layer of ice is accumulated on the refrigerator
back wall (3-5 mm), the appliance should be disconnected and
defrosted manually.
Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the power
mains - rotate the thermostat knob A to the STOP (0) position
and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Use a soft cloth to clean all surfaces. Cleaners containing
abrasive particles, acids, or solvents, are not appropriate
as they will damage the surface.
Clean the appliance exterior with water or a mild solution of
suds.
Lacquer-coated and aluminum surfaces can be cleaned with
lukewarm water to which some mild detergent was added.
Cleaning agents with minor alcohol content are also acceptable
(e.g. window cleaners).
Cleaners with alcohol content are not allowed for cleaning plastic
parts.
Clean the appliance interior with lukewarm water to which you
may add some vinegar.
