Maintenance and care
Switching the appliance off
Duringcleaningandmaintenanceitisnecessarytodisconnectthe
appliancefromtheelectricitysupply.
Itisnotsufficienttosetthetemperatureadjustmentknobson
OFF
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
Cleaning the appliance
• Theexternalandinternalparts,aswellastherubbersealsmaybe
cleanedusingaspongethathasbeensoakedinlukewarmwater

mustbepulledoutbeforecleaningtheappliance.
Avoiding mould and unpleasant odours
• Theapplianceismanufacturedwithhygienicmaterialswhichare
odourfree.Inordertomaintainanodourfreerefrigeratorandto
preventtheformationofstains,foodmustalwaysbecoveredor

• Ifyouwanttoswitchtheapplianceoffforanextendedperiodof
time,cleantheinsideandleavethedoorsopen.
Defrosting the appliance
!Followtheinstructionsbelow.
Donotspeedupthedefrostingprocessbyusinganydevicesortools
otherthanthescraperprovided,youmaydamagetherefrigeration

Defrosting the refrigerator compartment
Therefrigeratorhasanautomaticdefrostingfunction:waterisducted
tothebackoftheappliancebyaspecialdischargeoutlet(see
diagram)wheretheheatproducedbythecompressorcausesitto

thatthewatercanflowouteasily.
Defrosting the freezer compartment
Ifthefrostlayerisgreaterthan5mm,itisnecessarytodefrost
manually:
1. SettheTEMPERATUREADJUSTMENTknobtotheposition
