Appliance parts / control elements
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to property damage.
Do not pull or lift the device by the
■
doors or door handles.
The appliance must only be placed
■
on a level and fi rm surface. The sur-
face must be strong enough to sup-
port the appliance's weight when ful-
ly laden.
Do not use sharp or pointed objects
■
to unpack it.
When unpacking the appliance, nev-
■
er damage the insulation material on
the back of the appliance.
Do not use any electrical parts inside
■
the appliance's cooling chamber that
do not conform to the manufactur-
er's recommended design.
Do not use electrical appliances in-
■
side the appliance, unless they are of
the type recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
Do not use electrical appliances in-
■
side the food storage compartments
of the appliance, unless they are of
the type recommended by the man-
ufacturer.
Do not use mechanical devices or
■
other means to accelerate the defros-
ting process, other than those recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
The interior light must only be used
■
to illuminate the interior of the appli-
ance. It is not suitable for lighting a
room.
Do not store glass or metal contain-
■
ers containing water, lemonade, beer
etc. Water expands when frozen and
can burst the container.
Defrost the appliance in a time-
■
ly manner, before it forms a layer of
ice and frost of more than 5 mm. Ex-
cessive ice formation increases pow-
er consumption, the drawers become
diffi cult to open and the door may
not close completely.
Do not use any means other than
■
those recommended by the manufac-
turer to speed up defrosting. For ex-
ample, do not use any electric heat-
ing equipment, knives or devices with
an open fl ame such as a candle. The
thermal insulation and the interior
are scratch and heat-sensitive and
can melt.
When cleaning, please note:
■
Never use harsh, granular, soda,
–
acid, solvent-based or abrasive
cleaners. These attack the plastic
surfaces. All-purpose cleaners with
a neutral pH are recommended.
Door seals and plastic parts are
–
sensitive to oil and grease. Remove
contaminants as quickly as possi-
ble.
Use only soft cloths for cleaning.
–
Wait 5 minutes after switching off.
■
Only then switch the appliance on
again.
Only use original accessories.
