MAINTENANCE and

CLEANING

Removing the ventilation grille

The ventilation grille can be removed, e.g. to wash the grille.

Make sure the door is open when removing the ventilation grille. Unsnap the upper edge of the grille by pulling outward/downward. Then pull the grille straight out to completely remove it.

Cleaning

Clean the cabinet at regular intervals.

Internal Cleaning

Disconnect the appliance from electricity supply.

Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0,5 litre water) Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and free from debris.

External Cleaning

Use water/neutral soap emulsion for cleaning the surface of stainless steel, anti-finger-print coated. Do NOT use abrasive paste.

Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Remove the ventilation grille (see the section "Removing the

ventilation grille") and vacuum-clean under the cabinet. Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille) and the compressor at the back of the appliance, with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consumption.

When moving the cabinet, lift it by the front edge to avoid scratching the floor.

Servicing and cleaning the water dispenser.

Never use cleaning agents with a grinding or aggressive effect.

When necessary, clean the surfaces of the dispenser and the water container that are accessible from the outside, using only a soft cloth and warm water. The dispenser drip bowl can be cleaned with a tepid solution of washing up liquid.

If the system is not be used for a long period turn off the water connection to the refrigerator. A filter that has been in service shall not be exposed to temperatures below 0 °C as cracking of the filter body may occur due to freezing expansion.

If the filter still is to be preserved for later reuse, suitable storage temperature will be +5 °C.
