Defrosting
- Figure 13
The BioFresh compartment
defrosts automatically. The water
that forms on the rear wall
drains into a reservoir at the
back of the appliance and
evaporates automatically
through the compressor heat.
Ensure the defrost water can flow freely through
the drain hole in the rear wall
(Figure 13)
.
Cleaning
- Figure 14
• To prevent possible injury due to an
electrical shock, be sure to disconnect
the power cord or turn OFF the circuit
breaker before replacing the interior
light bulb(s) or cleaning the appliance.
• To avoid injury or damage, DO NOT
use steam cleaning equipment to
clean the appliance.
Clean the appliance by hand with lukewarm water
and a little detergent. DO NOT place components
in a dishwasher to clean.
DO NOT use abrasive or scouring sponges. DO
NOT use concentrated cleaning agents. NEVER
use abrasive or acid cleaners or chemical solvents.
Keep your stainless steel looking new by cleaning
with a good quality stainless steel cleaner or polish
monthly. High quality stainless steel cleaners and
conditioners are commercially available.
DO NOT CLEAN WITH STEEL WOOL PADS or
ABRASIVE PADS. DO NOT use cleaners that are
not for use on stainless steel, such as glass, tile
or counter cleaners.These types of cleaners
can damage the surface permanently.
Stainless steel that is exposed to chlorine gas and
moisture may have some discoloration. This
discoloration is normal. If your unit is used in this
environment, clean and polish your stainless steel
more often.
!
WARNING
If the surface discolors or rusting appears, clean it
quickly with a non-abrasive cloth and protect it.
Always clean and polish in the direction of the grain
and finish.
To clean the storage shelves:
Lift the shelves, slide forward and remove.
Always insert shelves with the guard bar at the
back pointing upwards, otherwise food may freeze
onto the rear wall.
The glass shelves are designed to prevent the
shelves from being pulled out accidentally.
To clean the BioFresh drawers:
Pull the drawers out and grip at the back, and lift
out.
To reinstall:
• place the drawers on the extended rails, the rails
must align with the front of the drawer and slide
in.
• pull the drawer cover out towards you. When
reinstalling, make sure the bearing pins snap
into place in the grooves.
The drawer and the cover must be flush with one
another vertically.
Clean the drain hole (Fig. 14) in the rear wall
frequently. If necessary, clean with a thin object, like
a cotton swab or something similar.
• Ensure no cleaning water penetrates into the
electrical components or ventilation grille.
• Dry all parts well with a cloth.
