13. Cleaning the appliance
WARNING!
Risk of electric shock!
There is a risk of electric shock from electrified parts.
Before starting any cleaning work, pull the mains plug
out of the socket (pull on the plug, not the cable). If
the plug is not accessible, the corresponding fuse for
the mains electricity supply to the house needs to be
switched off.
NOTICE!
Possible material damage!
Equipment damage due to improper handling of the
sensitive surfaces of the appliance.
Sensitive surfaces: Do not allow oil and grease to come
into contact with the plastic parts and the door seal as
the surface can become porous and brittle.
Never use acidic, abrasive or granular, acetic-acid- or
solvent-based cleaning agents. These may damage the
surfaces of your appliance.
Empty the cooling chamber.
Set the temperature control (7) to 0 and pull out the mains plug.
Remove the shelf from the cooling chamber.
Wash the cooling chamber and ice cube compartment with a mild cleaning agent (e.g.
washing-up liquid or a sodium carbonate solution of 3 teaspoons soda to 1 litre of
water) and leave to dry completely.
Carefully clean and dry all fittings.
Clean the appliance surfaces, except the door seal, with a mild cleaning agent. If
necessary, the appliance surfaces can be treated with silicone grease.
Clean the door seal with clean water, wipe it off and allow to dry.
Plug the mains plug back into the socket.
As soon as the appliance has reached operating temperature, you can put the food
back into the appliance.
