Do not use detergents or abra-
sive paste as these will damage
the paint, or stainless steel anti
finger print coating.
After cleaning, reconnect the equipment
to the mains supply.
5.2 Periods of non-operation
When the appliance is not in use for
long periods, take the following precau-
tions:
1.
disconnect the appliance from elec-
tricity supply
5.3 Cleaning the ventilation grille
5.4 Defrosting the refrigerator
6. WHAT TO DO IF...
During operation of the appliance some
smaller but annoying trouble can often
occur, which does not require calling a
technician out. In the following chart in-
formation is given about them to avoid
unnecessary charges on service.
2.
remove all food
3.
defrost and clean the appliance and
all accessories
4.
leave the door/doors open to pre-
vent unpleasant smells.
If the cabinet will be kept on, ask
somebody to check it once in a
while to prevent the food inside
from spoiling in case of a power
failure.
The ventilation grille can be removed for
washing.
Make sure the door is open and then:
• Loosen the upper edge of the grille by
pulling outward/downward.
• Pull the grille straight out to complete-
ly remove it.
• Vacuum clean under the cabinet.
Frost is automatically eliminated from
the evaporator of the refrigerator com-
partment every time the motor compres-
sor stops, during normal use. The de-
frost water drains out through a drain
hole into a special container at the back
of the appliance, over the motor com-
pressor, where it evaporates.
It is important to periodically clean the
defrost water drain hole in the middle of
the refrigerator compartment channel to
prevent the water overflowing and drip-
ping onto the food inside.
The operation of the appliance
goes with certain sounds (com-
pressor and circulating sound).
This not means a trouble, but a
normal operation.
