PART 8: CLEANING AND CARE

For hygienic reasons the appliance (including exterior and interior accessories) should be cleaned regularly at
least every two months.
CAUTION!
The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock! Before
cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains socket.

Exterior cleaning

To maintain good appearance of your appliance, you should clean it regularly.
• Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly on the surface of the appliance. This
helps ensure an even distribution of moisture to the surface.
• Clean the doors, handles and cabinet surfaces with a mild detergent and then wiped dry with a soft
cloth.
Caution!
• Don't use sharp objects as they are likely to scratch the surface.
• Don't use Thinner, Car detergent, Clorox, ethereal oil, abrasive cleansers or organic

Interior cleaning

You should clean the appliance interior regularly. It will be easier to clean when food stocks are low. Wipe the
inside of the fridge freezer with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda, and then rinse with warm water using
a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and crisper box.
Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts.
A layer of frost may occur on the freezer compartment's interior walls if the freezer door is opened frequently
or kept open too long. If the frost is too thick, choose a time when the supply of food stocks are low and
proceed as follows:
1. Remove existing food and accessories, unplug the appliance from the mains power and leave the doors
open. Ventilate the room thoroughly to accelerate the thawing process.
2. When defrosting is completed, clean your freezer as described above.
CAUTION!
Don't use sharp objects to remove frost from the freezer compartment. Only after the interior is completely
dry should the appliance be switched back on and plugged back into the mains socket.
Door seals cleaning
Take care to keep door seals clean. Sticky food and drinks can cause seals to stick to the cabinet and tear
when you open the door. Wash seal with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry it thoroughly after
cleaning.
CAUTION!
Only after the door seals are completely dry should the appliance be powered on.
