DEFROSTING, WASHING AND MAINTENANCE
l
The appliance operates in cycles: it refri-
gerates (then the frost settles on the rear
wall), and defrosts (water flows down the
rear wall).
Disconnect the appliance from
the mains before cleaning by re-
moving the plug from the mains
socket or switching off the fuse.
Prevent water from penetrating the
control panel or the light.
l
Do not use defrosting aerosols. They may
cause the formation of explosive mixture,
or contain slovents which may damage the
plastic components of the appliance and
even be harmful to health.
l
Make sure the water used for cleaning
does not flow into the evaporation container
through the discharge opening.
l
The whole appliance, except for the door
gasket must be cleaned with a mild cleaning
detergent. The door gasket should be cle-
aned with water and wiped dry.
l
Wash all the accessories (vegetable conta-
iners, door shelves, glass shelves, etc.).
You must not put an electric heater, a heat-
ing fan or a hair dryer into the fridge by
any means.
1. Set the knob at ”OFF” position, take out
the plug from the mains socket.
2. Open the door and remove the food from
the freezer.
3. After about 0.5h, it is possible to remove
the white frost or water from the smooth wall
surfaces (fig. 14).
4. Wash the interior of the freezer and wipe
it dry.
5. Switch on the appliance as per the rel-
evant point in the manual.
