6.1. Avoiding Bad Odours

Materials that may cause odour are not used in
the production of our refrigerators. However, odour
may be emitted if foods are stored improperly or
if the inner surface of the product is not cleaned
as required. Please consider the following to avoid
this problem:
• It is important that the refrigerator is kept
clean. Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause
odour. For this reason, clean your refrigerator
with carbonate solved in water every 15 days.
Never use detergents or soap.
• Keep your foods in closed vessels.
Microorganisms emitted from vessels without a
cover may cause unpleasant odours.
• Never keep expired or spoiled foods in your
refrigerator.

6.2. Protection of plastic surfaces

Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your
refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage
the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. If oil is
spilled or smeared onto the plastic surfaces, clean
and rinse the relevant part of the surface with
warm water immediately.

6.3. Cleaning the Inner Surface

To clean the inner surfaces and all removable
parts, wash them with a mild solution comprising
soap, water and carbonate. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Prevent the water from contacting the
lighting means and control panel.
ATTENTION:
A
Do not use vinegar, rubbing
alcohol or other alcohol-based
cleaning agents on any of the
inner surfaces.

6.4. Stainless Steel Outer Surfaces

Use a stainless steel cleaning agent that is non-
abrasive and apply it with a lint-free, soft cloth.
For polishing, wipe the surface softly with a damp
microfiber cloth and use dry wash-leather. Always
follow the strands of the stainless steel.
