Cleaning and care

Cleaning the interior and ac-
cessories
The appliance should be cleaned
regularly (at least once a month).
Clean up any spills, stains, or food
immediately. Do not allow them to
dry and stick to the appliance.
 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.
Remove the stainless steel parts be-
fore cleaning the adjustable shelves in
a dishwasher.
The following parts cannot be cleaned
in a dishwasher:
- Stainless-steel trim
- Fruit and vegetable drawer
 Clean these accessories by hand.
 Risk of damage as a result of ex-
cessively high dishwasher tempera-
tures.
Parts of the refrigeration appliance
may become unusable, e.g., deform,
if they are washed in the dishwasher
at more than 131°F (55°C).
For dishwasher-safe parts, only use
dishwasher programs with a maxi-
mum temperature of 131°F (55°C)..
Contact with natural dyes from car-
rots, tomatoes, and ketchup, etc. may
discolor the plastic parts in the dish-
washer. This discoloration does not af-
fect the stability of the parts.
The following parts can be cleaned in
the dishwasher:
- bottle holder, egg tray
- shelves and bottle shelf in the door
- the adjustable shelves (without the
strips or printing)
- the holder for the carbon filter (avail-
able as an optional accessory)
 Clean the condensate channel and
drain opening frequently using a cot-
ton swab or similar item to ensure
that condensate can drain away
freely.
 Leave the door open to air the ma-
chine sufficiently for a short while and
to prevent odor buildup.
