Refrigerator compartment
defrosts fully automatically
While the refrigerating unit is running,
beads of condensation or hoarfrost form
at the back of the refrigerator
compartment. This is quite normal. It is
not necessary to wipe off the beads of
condensation or scrape off the layer of
hoarfrost. The rear panel defrosts
automatically. The condensation runs into
the condensation channel Fig. 3 and is
conveyed to the refrigerating unit where
it evaporates.
Note: Keep the condensation channel
and drain hole clean so that the
condensation can drain.
Cleaning the appliance
1. Attention: Pull out the mains plug
or switch off the fuse!
2. Wipe the door seal with clear water
only and then wipe dry thoroughly.
3. Clean the appliance with lukewarm
water and a little washingĆup liquid.
The rinsing water must not get into the
temperature selector or light, Fig. 2.
4. After cleaning: reconnect and switch
on the appliance.
Door shelves can be removed for cleaning
Fig. 5.
Do not use abrasive or acidic cleaning
agents and solvents.
Regularly clean the condensation channel
and drainage hole, Fig. 3, with a cotton
bud or similar implement to ensure that
the condensation can drain.
The rinsing water must not run through
the drain hole into the evaporation pan.
Attention!
Never clean the shelves or containers
in the dishwasher. The parts may warp!
