MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Always disconnect the power supply to the unit prior to any repair or maintenance of the unit in
order to prevent electric shock or injury.
Ensure you do not inhale or consume medication or aerosols from around the unit at the time of
maintenance. These may be harmful to your health.
Cleaning
• Clean the unit once a month. Regular cleaning keeps the unit looking new.
• Use a dry cloth to wipe off small amounts of dirt on the outside and inside of the unit and all accessories.
If some of them are dirty, use a cloth containing diluted neutral dishwashing detergent (Undiluted
detergent may break the plastic parts. For the dilution, follow the instruction enclosed with the
detergent). When a diluted neutral dishwashing detergent is used, wipe the cabinet or accessories
thoroughly with a cloth soaked in clean water. Then wipe the cabinet or accessories unit with a dry cloth
to eliminate the moisture.
• Never pour water onto or into the unit. Doing so can damage the electrical insulation and may cause
electric shock or short circuit.
• The compressor and other mechanical part are completely sealed. This unit requires absolutely no
lubrication.
• Wipe off the condensation on the outside frame or glass with a soft dry cloth.
CAUTION
Do not use brushes, acids, thinners, powdered soap or hot water for cleaning the freezer. Polishing
powders or hot water can deteriorate the painted surfaces or cause deformation, discoloration or
degeneration of plastic or rubber components. Be especially careful not to wipe plastic or rubber parts
with volatile solvents such as benzine.
