Automatic defrosting

The wine cooler is defrosted automatically.

Defrost water runs through a pipe and is

collected in a tray above the compressor

where the heat generated by the compres-

sor causes it to evaporate. The defrost

water tray should be cleaned at intervals.

Cleaning

Before cleaning the appliance, unplug

it from the main supply. The cabinet is

best cleaned using warm water (max.

150°F) with a little mild detergent. Never

use cleaning agents that scour. Use a

soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry

thoroughly. The defrost water channel, in

which condensation from the evaporator

runs, is located at the bottom of the rear

inside wall of the cabinet and must be kept

clean. Add a few drops of disinfectant, e.g.

Rodalon, to the defrost water drain a couple

of times a year, and clean the drain using a

pipe cleaner or similar. Never use sharp or

pointed implements.

The sealing strip around the door must be

cleaned regularly to prevent discolouration

and prolong service life. Use clean water.

After cleaning the sealing strip, check that it

continues to provide a tight seal.

Dust collecting on the condenser on the

rear of the cabinet, the compressor and

in the compressor compartment is best

removed using a vacuum cleaner.
