Cleaning and Defrosting (Maintenance)
Cleaning
• Always pull the mains plug before cleaning.
• Do not pour water into the appliance.
• Tepid water with a bit of washing-up liquid
is suitable for the regular maintenance. In
order to avoid an unpleasant smell in the
cooling room, a cleaning of the latter once
a month is recommended.
• Clean the equipment separately with rins-
ing water, not in the dishwasher.
• Do not use aggressive, abrasive or alcoholic
detergents.
• After cleaning it with clear water, wipe the
surface and carefully dry it off. Subsequent-
ly, plug the mains plug with dry hands.
• In order to save energy and maintain the
efficiency, you should clean the condenser
(on the backside) and the compressor at
least twice a year with a broom or vacuum
cleaner.
• The rating label in the interior of the appli-
ance cannot be damaged or even removed
while cleaning.
Defrosting
The refrigerator does not have to be defrosted
but it does have to be cleaned.
The refrigerator's evaporator is fixed into the
rear wall, which is why the rear walls can be-
come covered with frost. Whenever the com-
pressor is not working, frost can melt. The
resulting water is led through a hose system
to the basin on the compressor, where it then
evaporates due to the heat generated. When
setting the temperature controller, avoid per-
manent frost without a defrost phase.
Make sure that the drain gully and the drain
opening are not blocked so that the water
produced in the refrigerator can always flow
off unobstructed.
Tips for Energy Saving
• For the installation of the appliance, choose
a cool, dry and well-aired room.
• Protect the appliance from direct insolation.
It should not be installed near heat sources
(stove, heater etc.). If this cannot be avoid-
ed, some sort of isolation between heat
source and appliance has to be used.
• Don't cover the ventilation openings and
grid. Provide enough circulation of air on
the backside of the appliance.
• Let warm food cool down before you store
it in the fridge.
• Do not leave the door open too long when
withdrawing or putting food inside. Other-
wise, the formation of ice in the interior will
be accelerated.
• Do not set the temperature lower than
necessary. More details on temperature
settings can be taken from the chapter
'Controls and Display'.
Operation Noises
There might be some typical operation noises
when the appliance is turned on. These are:
• Noise of the electric
motor is arising from
the working compressor.
When the compressor
starts to operate, then
the noises get slightly
louder for a short time.
• Noises in the tubes of the circulation of the
refrigerant.
Disposal
Appliances that are marked with
this symbol have to be disposed of
separately from household rubbish.
These appliances contain valuable
resources that can be recycled. A
correct waste disposal protects the
environment and the health of those around
you. To get informed about it, either defer to
your municipal administration or the retailer.
• Pull the mains plug out of the socket and
disconnect it from the appliance before
getting rid of it.
• The cooling medium Isobutane
(R600a) and the propellant in the
isolation Cyclopentane (C 5 H 10 )
are inflammable substances,
thus, need to be appropriately disposed of.
• Make sure the tubes of the cooling circuit
don't get damaged before the proper
disposal.
