during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock!
Before cleaning switch the appliance off and
remove the plug from the mains, or switch off or
turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
•
Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner.
Moisture could accumulate in electrical compo-
nents, danger of electrical shock! Hot vapours can
lead to the damage of plastic parts.
•
The appliance must be dry before it is placed back
into service.
Attention!
•
Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plas-
tic parts, e.g.
– lemon juice or the juice from orange peals;
– butyric acid;
– cleansers which contain acetic acid.
Do not allow such substances to come into
contact with appliance parts.
•
Do not use any abrasive cleansers.

erator. Wrap frozen food in several layers of news-
paper. Store it in a cool place, well covered.

Energy Saving Tips
•
Do not install the appliance near cookers, radia-
tors or other sources of warmth. High ambient
temperatures cause longer, more frequent opera-
tion of the compressor.
•
Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the
appliance base and at the back wall of the appli-
ance. Never cover air vent openings.

with a cloth and lukewarm water. Commercially
available dish washing detergents may also be
used.
5. After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry.
6. Regularly unblock the condensation water drain-
age hole in the rear wall of the refrigeration cham-
ber with the aid of the green strip inserted into the
drainage hole.

service.
•
Do not place warm foods into the appliance. Allow
warm foods to cool first.
