Cleaning and care
77
Cleaning the interior of the ap-
pliance
Clean the appliance regularly, or at
least once a month.
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove under certain circumstances.
Surfaces may become discolored or
damaged.
It is therefore best to remove any
soiling immediately.
 Clean the interior with a clean
sponge, lukewarm water, and a little
liquid dish soap.
 After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
 Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently using a cotton
swab or similar item to ensure that
condensate can drain away freely.
 Leave the door open to air the refrig-
eration appliance sufficiently for a
short while and to prevent odor build-
up.
