Maintenance Features:
- Cleaning:
- Frequency: The appliance (interior and exterior) should be cleaned regularly, at least every two months, for hygienic reasons.
- Safety: Always switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the mains socket before cleaning to prevent electrical shock.
- Exterior: Wipe the digital panel and display with a clean, soft cloth. Spray water onto the cleaning cloth (not directly on the appliance surface). Clean doors, handles, and cabinet surfaces with a mild detergent and dry with a soft cloth.
- Interior: Wipe with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda, rinse with warm water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth, and dry thoroughly before replacing shelves and baskets.
- Door Seals: Keep door seals clean to prevent stickiness and tearing. Wash with a mild detergent and warm water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Only power on the appliance once seals are completely dry.
- Avoid: Do not use sharp objects, thinners, car detergents, Clorox, ethereal oil, abrasive cleansers, or organic solvents like Benzene, as these can damage the surface or cause fire.
- Defrosting: Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process other than those recommended by the manufacturer. Use a plastic scraper to remove frost.
- LED Light Replacement: If the LED light is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified electrician or competent person.
- Moving the Appliance: When moving, turn the adjustable feet back up so the appliance can roll freely. Reinstall the appliance when relocating. Rollers are for forward/backward movement only; moving sideways may damage the floor and rollers.
- Switching Off for Extended Periods:
- Remove all food.
- Remove the power plug.
- Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
- Wedge all doors open slightly to allow air circulation and prevent mold.
- Disposal:
- Do not dispose of as household waste.
- Packaging materials are recyclable; dispose of them in suitable waste collection containers.
- Before disposal, pull out the mains plug, cut off the power cord, and discard the plug.
- Refrigerant and insulation gases are flammable and must be disposed of professionally by authorized waste disposal centers to prevent eye injuries or ignition. Ensure the refrigerant circuit tubing is not damaged.
