The compressor compartment and in particular the condenser must be kept free
from dust and dirt. This is best done with a vacuum cleaner and a brush.
For the external maintenance and cleaning – Use a hot soapy damp cloth. After
cleaning rinse off with a moist cloth only containing water. Finalize the cleaning
by wiping the cabinet dry, using a dry cloth. Cabinets with stainless steel
exterior, should be treated with stainless steel polish at the end.
The product should be cleaned internally with a mild soap solution at suitable
intervals and checked thoroughly before it is put into operation again.
Door gaskets
This chapter deals with the importance of a well-functioning door gasket.
The door gasket is an important part of a refrigerator/freezer. A door gasket with reduced
functionality, reduces the tightness of the cabinet. This might cause increased internal
humidity resulting in an iced-up evaporator (leading to reduced refrigeration capacity), and
in worst case reduced lifecycle of the cabinet.
Therefore, it is important to be aware of the condition of the gasket. Regular inspection is
recommended.
The gasket should be cleaned regularly with a mild soap solution.
If a gasket needs replacement, contact your dealer.
Long term storage
If the product is taken out of operation, and need to be prepared for long-term storage,
clean the inside compartment, the door and door gasket thoroughly with a hot soapy damp
cloth.
Eventual remnants of food do create mold.
It is advisable to leave the cabinet door open during long term storage, in order to minimize
the risk of bad smell and the building of mold inside the cabinet.
Service
The refrigerating system and the hermetically sealed compressor require no
maintenance - they merely must be kept clean.
If refrigeration fails, first investigate whether the unit has been unintentionally disconnected
or switched off at the socket, or whether a fuse has blown.
If it is not possible to find the cause of the refrigeration failure, please contact your dealer.
When reporting a malfunction please state the type and the 8-digit serial number (S/N) of
the cabinet. This information is found on the name plate, see Fig. 6.
