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 oilbased 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. CLEANING THE AIR CHANNELS 1. Remove the plinth (A), then the ventilation grid (B). 10
