Energy saving tips

• Do not place the product in the vicinity of a heat source (radiator or kitchen stove, etc.).
• Ensure unobstructed air flow around the refrigerator and freezer.
• If an ice layer has built, defrost the unit. A thick ice layer affects the transmission of the cold, thus the energy consumption will be increased.
• When opening and taking out food, only open the door shortly. A shorter door opening time causes less ice to deposit on the freezer walls.
• Select the temperature regulator setting according to the filling amount of the product.
• Use drawers, baskets or shelves to store the food. If the energy of the product is used efficiently, the energy consumption can be minimized.

English

Cleaning and care

Warning

• Unplug the product before cleaning.
- When cleaning, never use solvents or abrasive materials, hard brushes, metallic or sharp objects. Solvents are harmful to human health and can attack plastic parts, while abrasive cleaning materials and tools may scratch the surface(s).
- Never use oil or grease on the door seal. This will make it porous over time.
- Do not use steam cleaning equipment. The steam may come in contact with electrical parts of the product, causing a short circuit.

• Clean the product's exterior surfaces with a slightly damp cloth and then dry them thoroughly.
  • Make sure that no water enters the product interior (e.g. at the control panel).
• Wipe the door seal with clean water only, and dry it thoroughly afterwards.
