Care and cleaning

Cleaning the interior
Before using the appliance for the first time,
the interior and all internal accessories
should be washed with lukewarm water and
some neutral soap to remove the typical
smell of a brand-new product, then dried
thoroughly.
Caution! Do not use detergents,
abrasive powders, chlorine or oil-
based cleaners as they will
damage the finish.
Caution! The accessories and
parts of the appliance are not
suitable for washing in a
dishwasher.
Periodic cleaning
The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:
1. Clean the inside and accessories with
lukewarm water and some neutral soap.
2. Regularly check the door seals and wipe
them clean to ensure they are clean and
free from debris.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Defrosting of the freezer
Caution! Never use sharp metal
tools to scrape off frost from the
evaporator as you could damage
it.
Do not use a mechanical device or
any artificial means to speed up
the thawing process other than
those recommended by the
manufacturer.
About 12 hours prior to defrosting
set a lower temperature in order
to build up sufficient chill reserve
in case of any interruption in
operation.

A certain amount of frost will always form on
the freezer shelves and around the top
compartment.
Defrost the freezer when the frost layer
reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.
1. Switch off the appliance or pull out
electrical plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove any stored food and put it in a
cool place.
Caution! A temperature rise
of the frozen food packs
during defrosting may
shorten their safe storage life.
Do not touch frozen goods
with wet hands. Hands can
freeze to the goods.
3. Leave the door open. Protect the floor
from the defrosting water e.g. with a
cloth or a flat vessel.
4. In order to speed up the defrosting
process, place a pot of warm water in the
freezer compartment. In addition,
remove pieces of ice that break away
before defrosting is complete.
5. When defrosting is complete, dry the
interior thoroughly.
6. Switch on the appliance and close the
door.
7. Set the temperature regulator to obtain
the maximum coldness and run the
appliance for at least 3 hours using this
setting.
Only after this time put the food back into
the freezer compartment.
Period of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for long
period, take the following precautions:
1. Disconnect the appliance from electricity
supply.
2. Remove all food.
3. Defrost the appliance.
4. Clean the appliance and all accessories.
5. Leave the door open to prevent
unpleasant smells.
