Maintenance and Cleaning
Manual Defrosting of the Low Temperature Compartment
When the frost and ice layer in the low temperature compartment is 3-5 mm
thick, you should clean the freezer.
•
Turn the thermostat knob to STOP (0) position and disconnect the power
supply. Empty the compartment and take care that the packages remain
frozen.
•
Put a suitable vessel under the defrost water tray (the tray should be in
normal position - its front edge should be levelled with the low temperature
compartment door) and pull out the plug on the tray to collect the defrost
water.
Leave the door of the compartment open to accelerate defrosting.
Cleaning the Appliance
Disconnect the power supply before cleaning the appliance.
Do not use coarse or agressive cleaning agents as you can damage the
surface.
Be careful to remove any cleaning agent remaining after cleaning.
•
Clean the exterior with water and a
mild detergent.
•
Wash the interior of the appliance with
lukewarm water, in which you added
one or two spoonfuls of vinegar.
•
Every now and then wipe the
condenser on the rear wall. Use soft
non-metal brush or vacuum cleaner.
After cleaning, connect the appliance to
the power supply and reload the
packages.
Switch Off the Appliance When Not In Use
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a longer period, set the
thermostat knob to the STOP (0) position, disconnect the power supply, take
out the foods and defrost and clean the appliance. Leave the door slightly
open.
