Maintenance and cleaning
Never use gasoline, benzene or
similar substances for cleaning
purposes.
We recommend that you unplug the
ppliance before cleaning.
Never use any sharp abrasive
instrument, soap, household cleaner,
detergent and wax polish for
cleaning.
Use lukewarm water to clean the
cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe
it dry.
Use a damp cloth wrung out in a
solution of one teaspoon of
bicarbonate of soda to one pint of
water to clean the interior and wipe it
dry.
Make sure that no water enters the
lamp housing and other electrical
items.
If your refrigerator is not going to be
used for a long period of time, unplug
the power cable, remove all food,
clean it and leave the door ajar.
Check door seals regularly to ensure
they are clean and free from food
particles.
To remove door racks, remove all the
contents and then simply push the
door rack upwards from the base.
Never use cleaning agents or water
that contain chlorine to clean the
outer surfaces and chromium coated
parts of the product. Chlorine causes
corrosion on such metal surfaces.
Avoiding bad odours
Materials that may cause odour are not
used in the production of our
refrigerators.
However, due to inappropriate food
preserving conditions and not cleaning
the inner surface of the refrigerator as
required can bring forth the problem of
odour. Pay attention to following to avoid
this problem:
• Keeping the refrigerator clean is
important.
Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause
odour. Therefore, clean the refrigerator
with carbonate dissolved in water every
15 days. Never use detergents or soap.
• Keep the food in closed containers.
Microorganisms spreading out from
uncovered containers can cause
unpleasant odours.
• Never keep the food that have expired
best before dates and spoiled in the
refrigerator.
Protection of plastic
surfaces
Do not put the liquid oils or oil-cooked
meals in your refrigerator in unsealed
containers as they damage the
plastic surfaces of your refrigerator.
In case of spilling or smearing oil on
the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse
the relevant part of the surface at
once with warm water.
