cleaning & maintenance
Before cleaning the appliance, switch it off by removing the plug from the socket.
Clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm soapy water with, for instance, washing-up liquid, all-purpose cleaner
or soda in order to prevent nasty smells. Wipe the inside of the appliance after cleaning with clean water and properly
wipe everything dry. Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours.
The shelves, drawers and door compartments can be removed from the appliance easily and washed by hand.
These components may not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
For areas in the refrigerator that are difficult to clean, such as small openings or corners, it is recommended wiping them
clean regularly with a soft cloth or brush. If necessary, a tool can be used, such as thin sticks (cocktail sticks, for example),
to make sure no contamination can occur in these areas.
Clean the outside of the refrigerator and the door rubbers with a soft damp cloth.
Clean the rear of the refrigerator at least one per year with a vacuum cleaner so that the condenser and ventilation holes
remain clean and the refrigerator is able to function as optimal as possible.
Do not use hard brushes, steel wool, abrasives (such as toothpaste), organic solvents (such as alcohol, acetone, oil,
etc.), boiling water, acid or alkaline product to clean the refrigerator, as this could damage the surface and interior
of the refrigerator. Boiling water and benzene could deform or damage plastic components.
DEFROSTING THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
The defrosting of the refrigerator compartment is completely automatic. Droplets of water on the rear wall of the
refrigerator compartment indicate that the periodic automatic defrost cycle is in progress. The defrost water is
automatically routed to a drain outlet and into a container from which it evaporates. The drain hole should be cleaned
periodically with the defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting on the bottom of the refrigerator instead of
flowing out.
DEFROSTING THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT
Defrost the freezer compartment when the layer of ice reaches a thickness of 3 to 5 mm. Keep the contents of the freezer in
a cool place and wrapped in blankets or newspapers. Switch the thermostat off. Defrost the freezer compartment.
You can speed up the defrosting process by placing a bowl of hot water in the freezer. Do not use sharp metal objects for
this operation. They could puncture the refrigerator circuit and cause irreparable damage to the unit. Use a plastic scraper.
Clean and dry the freezer. Turn the thermostat on to the right setting. When the freezer compartment reaches its correct
temperature, replace the food items.
Warning: Never remove the ice with the aid of sharp objects, defrost sprays, a hair-drier, a heater, or similar items. This may
lead to unsafe situations and may cause irreparable damage to the appliance
REPLACING THE LED LIGHTING
This appliance is equipped with a LED light bulb. It can be used for a long time. In case, the LED bulb is blown, it must be
replaced by a qualified person to avoid any hazard. Contact the Inventum service department.
