A delight in freshness
Notes on Defrosting
The NoFrost system automatically defrosts the
appliance.
In the refrigerator compartment
The water that forms on the rear wall drains
into an evaporation container at the back of the
appliance and evaporates automatically through the
compressor heat. Drops of water, or frozen drops of
water, on the rear wall are perfectly normal.
Ensure that the defrost water can flow freely
through the defrost drain hole (Fig. 1, 17) in the
rear wall (arrow in Fig. 1).
In the freezer compartment
Any moisture arising collects on the evaporator
and freezes, and is periodically defrosted and
evaporated.
The automatic defrosting system keeps the freezer
frost-free and eliminates the time and effort spent
on defrosting manually.
Cleaning
!
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD!
●
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 or cleaning the appliance.
●
To avoid injury or damage, do not use
steam cleaning equipment to clean the
appliance.
●
Failure to follow these instructions
could result in death or serious injury
.
Clean the inside and equipment by hand with
lukewarm water and a little detergent.
DO NOT use abrasive or scouring sponges. Do not
use concentrated cleaning agents and never use
abrasive or acid cleaners or chemical solvents.
● We recommend using a soft cloth and an all-
purpose cleaner with a neutral pH value. Only
use food compatible cleaning and care agents
on the inside of the appliance.
● We recommend treating stainless steel
appliances with a special stainless steel
cleaning agent after normal cleaning.
● Do not allow cleaning water to run down the
drain gully or to penetrate the ventilation grilles
or electrical components. Dry the appliance.
● Do not damage or remove the model plate on
the inside of the appliance (Fig. 1A). It is very
important for servicing purposes.
● The butter dish can be
washed in a dishwasher.
The racks, shelves and
other components should be
cleaned by hand.
● The shelves and door racks
can be dismantled for
cleaning (Figure 41).
● Remove the trim and sides
from the glass shelves.
● Remove all protective film
from the decorative trim.
● Clean the drain hole (Fig. 1, 17) in the rear wall
(arrow in Fig. 1) frequently. If necessary, clean
with a thin object such as a cotton swab.
● Then connect and turn ON the appliance and
wait until the temperature reaches the set
value before adding food. See Turning the
Appliance ON and OFF.
If the appliance is to be left turned OFF for any
length of time, empty the appliance, disconnect
from the power source, clean as described above
and leave the door open so as to avoid odors.
Energy Saving Tips
● Ensure there is adequate space around the
appliance for ventilation and air extraction.
● Avoid keeping the door open for too long.
● Store food logically. Do not exceed the storage
period specified.
● Make sure to allow hot food to cool to room
temperature before placing in the appliance.
● Keep the appliance door shut in the event of a
breakdown. This will delay the cold loss and will
help to maintain the quality of the frozen food
longer.
