DEFROSTING/CLEANING

Notes on Defrosting

The NoFrost system automatically defrosts the appliance.

In the refrigerator compartment

The water that forms on the rear wall drains into an evaporation container at the back of the appliance and evaporates automatically through the compressor heat. Drops of water, or frozen drops of water, on the rear wall are perfectly normal. Ensure that the defrost water can flow freely through the defrost drain hole (Fig. 1, 17) in the rear wall (arrow in Fig. 1).

In the freezer compartment

Any moisture arising collects on the evaporator and freezes, and is periodically defrosted and evaporated.

The automatic defrosting system keeps the freezer frost-free and eliminates the time and effort spent on defrosting manually.

Cleaning

!WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD!

●To prevent possible injury due to an electrical shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord or turn OFF the circuit breaker before replacing the interior light or cleaning the appliance.

●To avoid injury or damage, do not use steam cleaning equipment to clean the appliance.

●Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or serious injury.

Clean the inside and equipment by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent.

DO NOT use abrasive or scouring sponges. Do not use concentrated cleaning agents and never use abrasive or acid cleaners or chemical solvents.

●We recommend using a soft cloth and an all- purpose cleaner with a neutral pH value. Only use food compatible cleaning and care agents on the inside of the appliance.

●We recommend treating stainless steel appliances with a special stainless steel cleaning agent after normal cleaning.

●Do not allow cleaning water to run down the drain gully or to penetrate the ventilation grilles or electrical components. Dry the appliance.

●Do not damage or remove the model plate on the inside of the appliance (Fig. 1A). It is very important for servicing purposes.

●The butter dish can be washed in a dishwasher. The racks, shelves and other components should be cleaned by hand.

●The shelves and door racks can be dismantled for

cleaning (Figure 41). Figure 41

●Remove the trim and sides from the glass shelves.

●Remove all protective film from the decorative trim.

●Clean the drain hole (Fig. 1, 17) in the rear wall (arrow in Fig. 1) frequently. If necessary, clean with a thin object such as a cotton swab.

●Then connect and turn ON the appliance and wait until the temperature reaches the set value before adding food. See Turning the Appliance ON and OFF.

If the appliance is to be left turned OFF for any length of time, empty the appliance, disconnect from the power source, clean as described above and leave the door open so as to avoid odors.

Energy Saving Tips

●Ensure there is adequate space around the appliance for ventilation and air extraction.

●Avoid keeping the door open for too long.

●Store food logically. Do not exceed the storage period specified.

●Make sure to allow hot food to cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance.

●Keep the appliance door shut in the event of a breakdown. This will delay the cold loss and will help to maintain the quality of the frozen food longer.
