Defrosting, cleaning

Defrosting

The refrigerator compartment

defrosts automatically. The defrost water is evaporated by the heat from the compressor; drops of water on the rear wall are perfectly normal.

W Ensure that the defrost water can flow freely through the drain hole in the rear wall (arrow in fig. A).

Cleaning

W Before cleaning, always switch off the appli- ance. Disconnect from the mains or unscrew or switch off the fuse.

W Clean the outer walls, inside and equipment by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent. Be- cause of the risk of injury and damage to the appliance, steam cleaning equipment should not be used.

W We recommend using a soft cloth and an all-purpose cleaner with a neutral pH value. Only use food compat- ible cleaning and care agents on the inside of the appli- ance.

W Use a commercially available stainless-steel cleaning agent for stainless-steel appliances*.

- In order to achieve best possible protection, apply a stain- less-steel care agent uniformly in grinding direction after cleaning. Points which are darker at the start and a more intensive coloration of the stainless-steel surface are normal.

W Do not use abrasive sponges or scourers, do not use con- centrated cleaning agents and never use cleaning agents containing sand, chloride or acid or chemical solvents, as these would damage the surfaces and could cause corro- sion.

W Ensure that no cleaning water penetrates into the ventila- tion grilles or any electrical components, and keep it out of the defrost drain as far as possible.

Wipe the appliance dry.

- Do not damage or remove the type plate on the inside of the appliance. It is very important for servicing pur- poses.

W The butter dish* can be washed in a dishwasher. The racks, shelves and other components should be cleaned by hand as they are not dishwasher-safe.

- Always remove the top door rack (butter and cheese compartment) together with the flap*. Then press one of the side walls carefully to the outside to release the flap pin. The flap can then be lifted out. Make sure not to damage any bushings*.

- The shelves and door racks can be dismantled for clean- ing. Remove the trims and sides* from the glass shelves.

W Remove the protective film* from the decorative trims.

W Clean the drain hole on the rear wall frequently, fig., arrow. If neces- sary, clean with a thin object, e.g. a cotton swab or similar.

W To clean the BioFresh drawers, pull the drawers right out, grip at back and lift out (fig. L).

- To re-insert: place the drawers on the extended rails - the rails must align with the front of the drawer - and slide in (fig. M).

- Simply pull the drawer cover out towards you. When re-inserting, make sure the bearing pins snap into place in the grooves.

The drawer and the cover must be flush with one an-other vertically.

WThe dust should be removed from the refrigeration unit and heat ex- changer - metal grid at the back of the appliance - once a year. Dust deposits increase energy consump- tion.

Ensure that none of the wires or other

components are dislodged, bent or damaged.W

W Then connect/switch on the appliance.

If the appliance is to be left switched off for any length of time, empty the appliance, disconnect from the mains, clean as described above and leave the door open so as to avoid odours.
