grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.
• Wipe the inside and the outside of the freezer with a damp cloth, using lukewarm water.

• Do not use other types of detergents, cleaners, abrasive powder or solvents which may contain
chemicals that could damage the lacquer coat and plastic surface of the refrigerator.

• Ensure that the rubber door seal is kept clean and free from dirt, grease, etc. Inspect regularly to
ensure it is clean.

long time, they will age more quickly and can become brittle and crack easily. They will also emit
bad smell. Therefore, you should get the habit of cleaning it regularly.
