Inspecting the door seals
The door seals must be inspected regularly
to ensure that no warm air enters the
appliance.
1. To inspect the door seals, stick in thin
pieces of paper at different positions.
The paper must be equally hard to pull
through at all the positions.
2. If the seal does not make even contact
everywhere: Heat the seal at the
relevant positions carefully with a hair
dryer and pull it out a little with your
fingers.
Cleaning the refrigerator
compartment
1. Pull out the power plug or switch off the
fuse.
2. Remove the chilled goods and place
them in a cool room.
3. Take out the vegetable drawers, the
door shelves and the glass shelves and
clean all the parts in lukewarm
dishwater. Then dry all the parts
thoroughly.
4. Wipe off the interior with a cloth
dampened slightly with dishwater.
Ensure that no liquid enters the control
and the refrigerator lighting.
5. When wiping again, add a few drops of
vinegar to the water to prevent mould
formation.
Wipe the interior dry and leave the door
open for a while to allow ventilation.
6. Clean the opening of the condensation
drain using the provided cleaning swab.
The condensation drain is located below
the lower vegetable drawer.
7. Clean the door seals with clear water
only; they are sensitive to oil and
grease.
