6. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
For hygienic reasons, the appliance interior (including interior
accessories) should be cleaned regularly.
Caution! Always disconnect the mains plug from the wall
outlet before cleaning.
Important! Never use detergent, solvents/abrasive products,
sharp objects or wire brushes for cleaning, as this will damage the
finish.
6.1 Cleaning
1. Remove all interior accessories (e.g. shelves and drawers)
from the compartment of the appliance. Clean them with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap. Rinse with water and
dry thoroughly.
2. Wipe the inside of the appliance with a damp cloth and some
neutral soapy water. Wipe with a warm damp cloth and then
dry thoroughly before replacing the accessories inside the
appliance.
3. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a soft dry cloth. Never
use solvents.
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they
are free from debris.
• Dust off the back of the appliance regularly. This will improve the
performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.
• To avoid defrost water overflowing into the appliance, periodically
clean the drain hole at the back of the appliance compartment
(
Fig. 18).
6.2 Defrosting
The appliance is equipped with an automatic defrosting function.
Due to seasonal changes, a thick layer of frost may form. To
defrost manually, unplug the appliance from the power supply,
then remove excess frost with a dry cloth.
Defrosting regularly helps to lower the energy consumption of the
appliance.
6.3 Lamp
