Defrosting
en
Defrosting aids
To accelerate the defrosting process, place
a pan of hot water on a base on the floor of
the freezer compartment.
NEVER use electric heaters, steam cleaners,
candles or kerosene lamps to defrost the
freezer compartment.
Caution when using defrosting sprays, as
these may form explosive gases and may
contain solvents or propellants which attack
plastic or which are a health hazard.
Cleaning
Before cleaning the appliance, ALWAYS
remove the mains plug or switch OFF or
unscrew the fuse.
NEVER clean the appliance with a steam
or steam pressure cleaner. The hot steam
may damage the surface and the electrics.
- Risk of electric shock!
Clean the refrigerator compartment once a
month. It is recommended to clean the
freezer compartment after each defrosting
process.
Cleaning water must NOT drip onto the
control fitting or light. Clean the whole
appliance, except the door seal, with tepid
water and a mild, slightly disinfecting
cleaning agent, e.g. liquid soap. Abrasive
and acidic cleaning agents and chemical
solvents are NOT suitable.
To prevent dull areas, non-abrasive cleaning
agents should not be used either.
Wipe the door seal with water only and then
dry thoroughly.
To ensure that the condensation flow is not
obstructed, clean the collection channel
(Fig. ®/B) and drain hole more frequently.
Try to prevent cleaning water from dripping
through the drainage aperture into the
evaporation tray.
