The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger of electrical shock! Before cleaning switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains socket. Exterior cleaning To maintain good appearance of your appliance, you should clean it regularly. -Spray water onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly on the surface of the appliance. This helps ensure an even distribution of moisture to the surface. -Clean the doors, handles and cabinet surfaces with a mild detergent and then wiped dry with a soft cloth. Caution! -Don’t use sharp objects as they are likely to scratch the surface. -Don’t use thinner, car detergent, clorox, ethereal oil, abrasive cleansers or organic

Interior cleaning

You should clean the appliance interior regularly. It will be easier to clean when food stocks are low. Wipe the inside of the fridge freezer with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda, and then rinse with warm water using a wrung- out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing the shelves and crisper box.
Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts.
A layer of frost may occur on the freezer compartment’s interior walls if the freezer door is opened frequently or kept open too long. If the frost is too thick, choose a time when the supply of food stocks are low and proceed as follows:

Remove existing food and accessories , unplug the appliance from the mains power and leave the doors open.
Ventilate the room thoroughly to accelerate the thawing process.
When defrosting is completed, clean your freezer as described above.

Caution! Don’t use sharp objects to remove frost from the freezer compartment. Only after the interior is completely dry should the appliance be switched back on and plugged back into the mains socket.
Door seals cleaning
Take care to keep door seals clean. Sticky food and drinks can cause seals to stick to the cabinet and tear when you open the door. Wash seal with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry it thoroughly after cleaning.
Caution! Only after the door seals are completely dry should the appliance be powered on.

Defrosting

Why defrosting

Water contained in food or getting into air inside the fridge be opening doors may form a frost layer inside. It will weaken the refrigeration when the frost is thick. While it is more than 10mm thick, you should defrost.

Defrosting in fresh food storage compartment

It is automatically controlled by switching the temperature regulator on or off so that there is no need of operation of defrosting. Water from defrosting will be drained into an drip tray through a drain pipe at the back of the fridge automatically.

Defrosting in frozen-food storage compartment

Defrosting in freezer chamber is operated manually. Before defrosting, take the food out.
Take the ice tray out or put them into the fresh food compartment temporarily.
Set the knob of the temperature regulator to position “0”(where the compressor will stop working) and leave the door of the refrigerator open until ice and frost dissolve thoroughly and accumulation at the bottom of the freezer chamber. Wipe off the water with soft cloth.
In the case of speeding up the process of defrosting, you may put a bowl of warm water (about 50°C) into the freezer chamber, and scrape away the ice and frost with a defrosting spatula. After doing so, be sure to set the knob of the temperature regulator to the original position.
It is not advisable to heat the freezer chamber directly with hot water or hair dryer while defrosting to avoid deformation of the inner case.
It is also not advisable to scrape off ice and frost or separate food from the containers which have been congealed together with the food with sharp tools or wooden bars, so as not to damage the inner casing or the surface of the evaporator.

Warning! Switching off the appliance before defrosting, turn the temperature regulator to position “0”.
Important! The fridge should be defrosted at least every one month.
During the using process, if the door was opened frequently or using the appliance in the extreme humidity, we advise the user to defrost every two weeks.

Go out of use for a long time

Remove all refrigerated packages.
Switch off the appliance by turning the temperature regulator to position “0”.
Remove the mains plug or switch off or disconnect the electricity supply.
