Cleaning and Care
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be cleaned regularly.
Warning!
The appliance may not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock! Before cleaning
switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
If the appliance is not in use for ever, do not throw it away freely, send it to recycle bin for disposal. Never clean
the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in electrical components, danger of electrical
shock! Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.
Important!
Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice or the juice from orange peel; butyric
acid; cleanser which contain acetic acid.
Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
Remove the bottles from the wine cooler. Store it in a cool place, well covered.
Switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm water. Commercially available dish
washing detergents may also be used.
After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry.
Accumulation of dust at the condenser increases energy consumption.
For this reason carefully clean the condenser at the back of the appliance once a year with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner. Check the water drain hole on the rear wall of the wine cooler.
Clear a blocked drain hole with the aid of the green peg in the pack of accessories included with the appliance.
After everything is dry place appliance back into service.
Energy Saving tips
Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other sources of warmth. High ambient temperatures cause
longer, more frequent operation of the compressor.
Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base and at the back wall of the appliance. Never
cover air vent openings.
Only leave door open as long as necessary.
Do not set temperature any colder than necessary.
Keep the heat emitting condenser, the metal grille on the rear wall of your appliance, always clean.
