Cleaning and Care
For hygienic reasons the appliance interior, including interior accessories, should be cleaned regularly.
Warning!
Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
•Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumu- late in electrical components and could cause an electrical shock! Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.
•The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.
Warning!
•Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g.
– lemon juice or the juice from orange peel,
– butyric acid;
– cleansers which contain acetic acid.
Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
•Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
1.Remove frozen food and the food from the refrigerator. Wrap frozen food in several layers of newspaper. Store it in a cool place, well covered.
2.Switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or discon- nect from the electricity supply.
3.Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with lukewarm water and with a little bicarbonate of soda added (5ml to 0,5 litre of water).
4.Dry the appliance thoroughly.
5.When everything is dry place the appliance back into service.
Energy Saving Tips
•Do not install the appliance near radiators or other sources of continuous warmth. High ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent opera- tion of the compressor.
•Ensure sufficient air circulation at the appliance base and at the back wall
