5.5 Periodical cleaning
Keep the device dry and clean. Periodical cleaning is recommended. Clean the device every 30-45 days. Switch
the device off before cleaning. Clean the stainless-steel parts and surfaces with warm water and a neutral
detergent, wash them completely and carefully dry them. You may never clean the mentioned surfaces with
aggressive detergents, ordinary steel wool, steel brushes or other sharp objects. This is because ferrous particles
can get stuck on the stainless-steel surfaces, which can cause rust stains. Treat stainless steel parts with stainless-
steel oil. Use a soft cloth with neutral detergent to rub inside. Then use water to remove the detergent. Do not
use a steel brush, metal shovel, etc., as this can damage the fridge. The rack, filter net must be removed and
cleaned with water. To keep the capacitor in a good condition you must keep the filter net clean. Do not use
sharp objects when cleaning the pipes and slats of the evaporator and the condenser.

fridge, this can cause a short circuit.
Warning: Because the fridge is relatively big, do not let kids stay inside, regardless if the product is on or off.
