For hygienic reasons, the appliance's interior, including interior accessories, should be
cleaned regularly.
Caution! The appliance must not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Danger
of electrical shock! Before cleaning, switch the appliance off and unplug from the
mains, or switch off the circuit breaker, or remove the fuse. Never clean the appliance
with a steam cleaner. Moisture may accumulate in electrical components resulting in
danger of electrical shock! Hot vapor can cause damage to plastic parts. The appliance
must be dry before it is put back into service.
Important! Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g. lemon juice
or the juice from orange peel, butyric acid, or cleansers that contain acetic acid.
• Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaners.
• Remove any food from the freezer. Store in a cool place and keep well covered.

Replacing the lamp
The internal light is a LED. To replace it, please contact a qualified technician.
Defrosting the freezer
The freezer compartment, however, will become progressively covered with frost.
This should be removed. Never use sharp metal tools to scrape off frost from the
evaporator as you could damage it.
However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting
should be carried out as follows:
• unplug the power cord from the socket;
• remove all stored food, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a
cool place;
• keep the door open, and place a basin underneath the appliance to collect the
melted ice;
• when defrosting is completed, dry the interior thoroughly;
• replace the plug in the power socket to run the appliance again.
2.4. Troubleshooting
Caution! Before troubleshooting, disconnect the power supply. Only a qualified
