CLEANING AND CARE
For hygiene reasons, the interior, including interior fi ttings, should be cleaned
regularly.
CAUTION
Risk of injury! Before defrosting and cleaning, turn off the
appliance and unplug it from the mains socket to prevent electric
shock.
• The dust behind the freezer and on the fl oor must be removed in a timely
manner to improve the cooling eff ect and save energy.
• Check the door seal regularly to ensure there is no contamination. Clean the
door seal with a soft cloth dampened with soapy water or diluted detergent.
• The inside of the freezer should be cleaned regularly to prevent odours.
• Before cleaning the interior, turn off the device and remove all food, drinks,
shelves, drawers, etc.
• Use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside of the freezer with two
tablespoons of baking soda and a quart of warm water. Then rinse with water
and wipe off . After cleaning, open the door and allow it to air dry before
reconnecting the device to power.
• We recommend cleaning areas of the freezer that are diffi cult to clean (e.g.
narrow gaps, crevices or corners) regularly with a soft cloth, a soft brush, etc.
and, if necessary, in combination with some tools (e.g. thin sticks) to ensure
that contaminants or bacteria do not build up in these areas.
• Do not use soap, detergents, scouring powders, cleaning sprays, etc. as these
may cause odours inside the freezer or contaminated food.
• Clean the bottle frame, shelves and drawers with a soft cloth dampened with
soapy water or diluted detergent. Dry the device with a soft cloth or let it air
dry.
• Wipe the exterior surface of the freezer with a soft cloth dampened with soapy
water or dishwashing liquid, then wipe dry.
• Do not use hard brushes, steel balls, wire brushes, abrasive cleaners (e.g.
toothpaste), organic solvents (e.g. alcohol, acetone, banana oil, etc.), boiling
water, acids or alkalis, as these can damage the surface and interior of the
cooling device. Boiling water and organic solvents such as benzene can warp
or damage plastic parts.
• Do not rinse the appliance directly with water or other liquids during cleaning
to avoid short circuits or damage to the electrical insulation caused by
immersion in water.
