AEG S73100KDX0 - Manual (Page 30)

Do not use detergents or abra-
sive paste as these will damage
the paint, or stainless steel anti
finger print coating.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment
to the mains supply.
5.2 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for
long periods, take the following precau-
tions:
1. disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
2. remove all food
3. defrost and clean the appliance and
all accessories
4. leave the door/doors open to pre-
vent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a
while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a power
failure.
5.3 Cleaning the ventilation grille
The ventilation grille can be removed for
washing.
Make sure the door is open and then:
• Loosen the upper edge of the grille by
pulling outward/downward.
• Pull the grille straight out to complete-
ly remove it.
• Vacuum clean under the cabinet.
5.4 Defrosting the refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from
the evaporator of the refrigerator com-
partment every time the motor compres-
sor stops, during normal use. The de-
frost water drains out through a drain
hole into a special container at the back
of the appliance, over the motor com-
pressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and drip-
ping onto the food inside.
6. WHAT TO DO IF…
During operation of the appliance some
smaller but annoying trouble can often
occur, which does not require calling a
technician out. In the following chart in-
formation is given about them to avoid
unnecessary charges on service. The operation of the appliance
goes with certain sounds (com-
pressor and circulating sound).
This not means a trouble, but a
normal operation.
