Defrosting And Cleaning The Inside Of The Appliance - hanseatic HKS8555DW Gebrauchsanleitung

Defrosting and cleaning the
inside of the appliance
The fridge does not need to be defrosted
as it is equipped with an automated thawing
function. Frost and ice are automatically de-
frosted and the thaw water is collected in a
thaw water container on the reverse side of
the appliance. The thaw water evaporates as
a result of the heat generated by the motor.
CAUTION
Danger of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to defl agration or explosion!
■ Never use defrosting sprays. They can
generate explosive gases.
■ Do not use mechanical devices or
other means to accelerate the de-
frosting process, other than those rec-
ommended by the manufacturer. For
example, do not use any electric heat-
ing equipment, knives or devices with
an open fl ame (such as a candle). The
thermal insulation and the interior
walls are scratch- and heat-sensitive
and can melt.
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
2. Ensure that your food is kept cool enough.
3. Take the fruit/vegetable drawer (10), the
door compartments (5), the bottle rack (7)
and the glass shelves (13) out of the fridge.
4. In order to remove the door compart-
ments (5) and bottle rack (7), push them
together slightly at the sides and simultane-
ously pull them upwards out of the holders.
5. Clean all parts in lukewarm soapy water.
Then dry everything thoroughly.
6. Wipe down the inside of the appliance
with warm water and washing-up liquid.
7. When wiping clean, add a few drops of
vinegar to the water to prevent mould
from forming.

fridge, above the fruit/vegetable draw-
er (10).

ance door (3) open a while to air.

ble/fruit drawer and the door shelves.
