PART 6: CLEANING AND CARE

For hygienic reasons the appliance (including exterior and interior accessories) should be cleaned at least
every two months.
WARNING!
To avoid electrical shock, the appliance must not be connected to the main power supply during
cleaning. Before cleaning, switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the main socket.

Exterior cleaning

To maintain good appearance of your appliance, you should clean it regularly.
• Spray water onto a 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 wipe dry with a soft cloth.
CAUTION!
• Don't use sharp objects to clean with, as they are likely to scratch the surface.
• Don't use Thinner, Car detergent, bleach, ethereal oil, abrasive cleansers or organic solvent such
as Benzene for cleaning. They may damage the surface of the appliance and may cause fire.

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 backing soda and water, and then rinse with warm
water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and baskets.
Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts before putting them back into place. Although this
appliance automatically defrosts, 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
freezer is nearly empty and proceed as follows:
1. Remove existing food and accessories baskets, unplug the appliance from the main power and leave the
doors open. Ventilate the room thoroughly to accelerate the process.
2. When defrosting is completed, clean your freezer as described above.
WARNING!
Do not 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 main socket.
