DEFROSTING/CLEANING
Defrosting
The beverage compartment defrosts automatically. The
water that forms on the rear wall drains into a reservoir at
the back of the appliance and evaporates automatically
through the compressor heat.
Cleaning
• To prevent possible injury due to an electrical
shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord or
turn OFF the circuit breaker before replacing the
interior light tube or cleaning the appliance.
• To avoid injury or damage, DO NOT use steam
cleaning equipment to clean the appliance.
Clean the appliance by hand with lukewarm water and a
little detergent.
Do not use abrasive or scouring sponges. Do not use
concentrated cleaning agents. Never use abrasive or acid
cleaners or chemical solvents or steam cleaners.
• Ensure no cleaning water penetrates into the electrical
components or ventilation grille.
Keep your stainless steel looking new by cleaning with
a good quality stainless steel cleaner or polish monthly.
High quality stainless steel cleaners and conditioners are
commercially available.
Do not clean with steel wool pads or abrasive pads.
Do not use cleaners that are not for use on stainless
steel, such as glass cleaners, tile cleaners or cleaners
used to clean counter tops. These types of cleaners
can damage the surface permanently.
Stainless steel that is exposed to chlorine gas and moisture may have some discoloration. This discoloration is
normal. If your unit is used in this environment, clean and
polish your stainless steel more often.
If the surface discolors or rusting appears, clean it quickly
with a non-abrasive cloth and protect it. Always clean and
polish in the direction of the grain and finish.
Mold can form on the bottles and labels depending on the type of adhesive used on the labels.
This can be prevented by carefully cleaning any
adhesive residues off the bottles.
IMPORTANT
• Dry all parts well with a cloth.
• Do not damage or remove the model plate on the
inside of the appliance. It is very important for servicing
your appliance.
