MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Cleaning and care
For hygienic reasons, clean the interior and accessory parts regularly.
•Remove the contents and keep covered at a cool location.
•Use warm water and a mild detergent for cleaning the interior (including rear side and bottom).
•After thorough drying, restart operation.
•Clean the ventilation openings on the rear side by using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
Interior light
The light contributes to a warming of the interior. Therefore we recommend, switch the light off if it is
not needed. This also saves energy!
IMPORTANT
The light diodes of the device have an extremely long lifespan. It is not necessary and
also not possible, to exchange them. The light diodes are firmly assembled into the
light. Under no circumstances should you open the light! This would irreparably dam-
aged the device.
