Disposal and safety information

Notes on disposal

Old appliances still have some residual value. An environment-friendly method of disposal will ensure that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again.

Unplug your old appliance, cut through the mains cable and throw away cable and plug together.

Remove the door lock so that children at play cannot become trapped inside and risk suffocation.

The refrigerant used in fridge/freezers and the gases in the insulation material require special disposal procedures. Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the appliance are damaged prior to disposal.

Your new appliance was protected by adequate packaging while it was on its way to you. All materials used for this purpose are environment-friendly and suitable for recycling. Please contribute to protecting the environment by disposing of the packaging appropriately.

Do not allow children to play with any parts of the packaging. There is a risk of suffocation by the cardboard boxes and plastic wrapping.

Up-to-date information concerning options for disposing of your old appliance and the packaging from the new one can be obtained from your retailer or local council office.

  Bottles containing high-proof alcoholic drinks should be properly sealed and stored standing up. Products that make use of a flammable propellant gas (e.g. whipped cream sprays, aerosols) and explosive substances should not be stored inside this appliance - explosion hazard!
  Liquids in bottles and cans, in particular carbonated drinks, should never be stored in the freezer as the bottles and cans will burst.
  Do not cover or block the vents or grilles of your appliance.
  Do not use the base panel, pull-out parts, doors etc, to stand or lean on.

Disposal and safety information

Do not allow children to play with this appliance.
If the appliance is fitted with a lock, keep the key in a safe place out of the reach of children.
- Never put ice cubes or ice lollies straight from the freezer into your mouth. (The low temperature may cause "freezer burns.")
- Never touch any frozen food if your hands are wet, as they may stick to it.

This unit contains the coolant isobutane (R 600a), a natural gas which is very environmentally friendly but also combustible. When transporting and installing the unit care must be taken to ensure that none of the refrigeration circuit components become damaged. In the event of damage avoid naked flames or ignition sources and ventilate the room in which the unit is placed for a few minutes.

Warning - Do not use mechanical devices or other artificial means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.

Regulations

The appliance is suitable for refrigerating and freezing food, and making ice cubes.
It is designed for domestic use.
If using the appliance for commercial purposes, please observe the statutory regulations applicable for the trade sector in question.
The appliance adheres to current German regulations for the prevention of accidents caused by refrigerating equipment (VBG 20).
This product meets all the relevant safety regulations applicable to electrical appliances.
The refrigerating circuit has been leak-tested.

Observe ambient temperature

Depending on the "climatic category" (see rating plate), the appliance can be operated at the following ambient temperatures. (The rating plate can be found inside the appliance at the bottom left-hand side, Fig. ⑥).

Climatic Ambient category from ... to

temperature

SN+10°C to 32°C

N+16°C to 32°C

S + 18^ t 38^ T+18°C to 43°C

If the temperature drops below the ambient-temperature range, the refrigerator compartment will become too cold. If the temperature exceeds the ambient-temperature range, the freezer compartment will become too warm.

If the ambient temperature drops below the set temperature in the refrigerator, the latter will drop to the ambient temperature.

At ambient temperatures below +10^ , functional irregularities may occur during automatic defrosting of the refrigerator interior.

As a contribution to environmental protection, we use recycled paper.

Installation

Siting

A dry and adequately ventilated room is the best location for installing the appliance. Remember that the appliance should not be exposed to direct sunlight, nor should it be close to a direct source of heat such as a cooker, radiator, etc. Where installation close to a heat source is unavoidable, ensure that a suitable insulating panel is used or maintain the following minimum clearances between the appliance and the heat source:

3 cm clearance (electric cookers)
30 cm clearance (oil or coal-fired stoves).
If the appliance is placed next to another refrigerator or freezer, keep a minimum 2 cm clearance at the side in order to prevent condensation.
The appliance must be stable and level. To compensate for an uneven floor, use the two height-adjustable feet at the front of the appliance, Fig. ⑨.
Two castors at the rear of the appliance facilitate installation into a recess.

Changing over door hinges

Proceed in numerical sequence (Fig. 13).

Electrical connection

Only connect appliances to a 220-240 V/50 Hz a.c. supply by means of a safety socket installed in accordance with regulations.

Make sure that the socket is protected by a 10 amp fuse or higher.

With appliances destined for non-European countries, check the rating plate to make sure that supply voltage and type of current indicated coincide with the values of your power supply. The rating plate is located at the bottom left of the refrigerator. Figure 6.

In the event that the mains cable needs to be replaced, this must only be carried out by a service technician of the manufacturer.

Warning! NEVER connect the appliance to electronic energy saver plugs (e.g. Sava plug) or to power inverters which convert the direct current to 230V alternating current (e.g. solar equipment, power supplies on ships).

Ventilation

Figure 9

The warm air generated at the back of the appliance must be allowed to escape unhindered. Otherwise the refrigerating machine will have to work harder which in turn increases energy consumption. For this reason, never cover up the vents and grilles.

After shipping ...

Before switching on for the first time, allow the appliance to set vertically for approximately 1/2 hour.

Getting to know your appliance

en

Switching ON and setting temperatures

Note

The temperature in the refrigerator compartment may fluctuate because:
The appliance door is opened frequently
Large quantities of fresh food are placed in the refrigerator compartment and/or freezer compartment
The ambient temperature changes
- The temperature selector setting for the freezer compartment changes or
"super" freeze has been activated.

• If no temperature is displayed when starting the appliance, It is still too warm in the refrigerator or freezer compartment.
  To prevent condensation in the area of the door seal, the slides of the housing are partially heated.
• You may notice that the door of the freezer sometimes refuses to open again directly after having been closed. If this does happen, wait two or three minutes for the vacuum to equilibrate.
  While the refrigerating machine is running, water droplets of frost will form on the rear panel of the refrigerator, simply caused by the refrigerating machine functioning. It is not necessary to scrape off the frost or wipe off the water. The rear panel defrosts automatically. The defrosting water collects in the gutter (Fig. 1B), and then routed to the refrigerating machine where it evaporates.
  The temperature display of the refrigerator compartment or/and the freezer compartment changes slowly depending on the quantity of food we put in the fridge. The temperature display doesn't change even if the door of the refrigerator or the freezer compartment is open for a few minutes.

Switching OFF and longer periods of disuse

Switching OFF

Press the main switch, Figure 3/1. The whole appliance is then switched off.

Disconnecting the refrigerator compartment

If only the refrigerator compartment is disconnected, press the main switch for the refrigerator compartment (Fig. 2/2) until the display (Fig 2/5) goes out.

Longer periods of disuse

If the appliance is not going to be used for a longer period of time: Press the main switch, Figure 2/1, clean the appliance and leave the doors open.

Note

If you want to clean the refrigerator compartment and you want to switch off the interior light simply press the main switch off (Fig. 1).

Food arrangement Food arrangement

Fan inside refrigerator compartment

Fig. 1/13

The fan at the top of the refrigerator compartment increases the speed at which air circulates.

The results are...

a uniform temperature throughout the refrigerator compartment
After the door has been opened, the original temperature is restored rapidly.
When the temperature setting is altered, the new level is reached more quickly
Fresh food can be kept for a longer period of time due to decreased air humidity.

When loading the food, note the following:

Allow warm food and beverages to cool down before storing inside the appliance.
- Ensure that food is well wrapped or covered before it is stored. This will prevent food from dehydrating, deteriorating in colour or losing in taste and will help maintain freshness. It will also prevent cross-flavouring. Vegetables, fruit and salad need not be wrapped provided they are stored in the vegetable bins of the refrigerator.
- Never let any oil or grease come into contact with plastic fittings or the door seal as these materials easily become porous.
- Never store any explosive substances inside the appliance. High-proof alcohol should only be stored upright in tightly sealed containers. Danger of explosion!
Glass bottles containing liquid that can freeze should never be stored in the freezer as the glass bursts when the contents freeze.

Example of food arrangement

Freezing and storing

Note the following when buying frozen food

Inspect packaging: it should not be damaged in any way.
Make sure the "Best before ..." date has not expired.
- Check thermometer of the vendor's freezer. It should read -18^ or colder.
- Ensure that the frozen foods are the last items to be bought. Wrap in several layers of newspaper or place in a thermo-insulated bag and take home at once. Store frozen products in the freezer without delay.

Freezing at home

If freezing at home, use only foodstuffs which are absolutely fresh and in perfect condition.

Foodstuffs that freeze well

Meat, cold slices and sausage, poultry and game, fish, vegetables, aromatic herbs, fruit, bread and pastries, pizza, precooked meals, leftovers, egg yolks and whites.

Foodstuffs not suitable for freezing

Whole eggs in their shells, soured cream and mayonnaise, lettuces, radishes, horseradish and onions.

Blanching vegetables and fruit

It is advisable to blanch vegetables and fruit before freezing in order to preserve colour, flavour, aroma and vitamin C.
(To blanch, bring a large saucepan of water to a fast boil and completely immerse fruit or vegetables briefly. Most book stores offer a wide selection of literature on freezing which will also deal with blanching.)

Wrapping food

Pack the food in portions suitable for your household.
Vegetable and fruit portions should be no heavier than 1kg while meat portions can

be up to 2.5kg Smaller portions freeze through more quickly and the quality is thereby maintained better when defrosting and preparing the food.

It is important to seal food airtight before freezing to prevent it from losing its taste or dehydrating.

Suitable wrapping materials:

plastic foil, polyethylene tubular film, aluminium foil and freezing containers. These items are available from any dealer.

Unsuitable wrapping materials: wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, bin bags or used carrier bags.

Place food in the wrapping, press out any air and seal it airtight.

Suitable sealing materials:

rubber bands, plastic clips, string, freezer tape or similar. Polyethylene tubular film and bags may be heat-sealed using a special sealing iron or press.

Before placing in the freezer, each package should be clearly labelled with the contents and date of freezing.

Maximum freezing capacity

Foodstuffs should be frozen right through as quickly as possible. Only in this way it is possible to retain vitamins, nutrients, appearance and taste. You should therefore never exceed your appliance's maximum freezing capacity.

Within 24h a max 12kg of food for 60~cm width appliances, can be frozen at once in the upper compartments.

Food that is already frozen should never come into contact with fresh food about to be frozen.

Allow hot food and drinks to cool down to room temperature before placing in the freezer.

Super cooling

If you are going to buy fresh food you should switch on super cooling 3-4 hours before or at the latest when placing fresh food in the refrigerator. To switch on "super cooling" simply press the "super cooling" button (Fig. 9/3). "Super cooling" reduces the temperature in the refrigerator compartment for 6 hours. Then the appliance automatically switches to the temperature, which was selected prior to "super cooling."

Fast freezing

If frozen food is already being stored in the freezer, you should switch on fast freeze several hours before putting in fresh food to freeze.

Normally, it will suffice to switch on fast freeze 4-6 hours ahead. If you are planning to make full use of maximum freezing capacity, switch on 24 hours in advance. Smaller quantities of food (up to 2kg ) can be frozen without the fast freeze facility. To switch on "super" freeze, simply press the "super" freeze button, Fig. ⑧/11.

The "super" indicator lights up to show that the fast freeze function is operating. After switching on, a very low temperature is achieved in the freezer compartment. Fast-freezing switches off automatically approximately 53 hours after being switched on.

Storage of food

Make sure that all the frozen goods containers are pushed in as far as they will go. This is important so that the air inside the freezer can circulate properly.

Frozen food calendar

Figure 3/27

It is important not to exceed maximum permissible storage times in order to avoid impairing the quality of the frozen goods. The actual storage time depends on the type of food. The numbers next to the symbols indicate the permissible storage time in

Freezing and storing Freezing a@destirigg

months. In the case of frozen goods purchased from a shop, observe the production date or 'Best before ...' date.

* Freezer tray

Fig. 7

The freezer tray is suitable for storing ice cube trays and for freezing individual berries, pieces of fruit, herbs and vegetables. To freeze individual items of food, distribute the produce uniformly on the freezer tray and leave to freeze for approx. 10-12 hours. Then transfer the produce into freezer bags or containers.

To thaw, spread out the individual items of food.

Thawing frozen food

Depending on the nature of the food and the preparation or cooking method you are going to employ, you may choose one of the following thawing methods:

at room temperature,

in the refrigerator,

in an electric oven,

tan-assisted or not, in the microwave of

Food that has been partially or completely defrosted can be refrozen provided that these items are stored at temperatures below +3^ and for no longer than one day where meat and fish is involved, or no longer than 3 days for other items.

Otherwise, provided that taste, smell and appearance remain unchanged, you can boil, fry or process the food further into a ready-made dish and then refreeze.

Observe that in this case the admissible shelf-life will be shorter than normal.

Making ice-cubes

Fill the ice-cube tray three-quarters full with water and place it in the freezer.

Twist the tray slightly to remove the ice-cubes. (Fig. 9)

You should clean the appliance twice annually.

Before cleaning, you should always unplug the appliance and/or switch off or disengage the household fuse.

Do not use a steam cleaner. The hot steam could damage the surface of the appliance or the electrical components - electric shock hazard!

Ensure that cleaning water does not get into the control panel or any of the lights. Lukewarm water with a little mildly disinfectant detergent such as washing-up liquid is ideal for cleaning the entire appliance, except the door seal. Never use cleaning agents containing abrasives, acids, chemical solvents or polishers.

Simply clean the door seal with clear water and dry thoroughly afterwards.

If possible, the heat exchanger (black grid) at the back of the appliance should be cleaned with a brush or vacuum cleaner every two years. This will maintain the full efficiency of the appliance and helps to save electricity.

Clean the refrigerator gutter (Fig. / and drainage outlet (Fig. / more frequently to ensure that defrosting water can always drain.

Power saving tips Information about

Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with adequate ventilation. Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and never put it near a direct source of heat (raditor, etc.).
- Never block any vents or grilles on the appliance.
-Allow warm food to cool down before placing in the appliance.
- Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw. You can then use the low temperatures of the frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
Do not keep the door of the appliance open for too long when loading or taking out food. The shorter the time that the door is opened, the less ice will form on the freezer grids.
Clean the heat exchanger (black grid) at the back of the appliance every two years.

operating noises

Operating noises

In order to maintain the pre-set temperature at a constant level, the appliance compressor switches on from time to time.

The noises that can be heard while it is running are perfectly normal.

The noise reduces automatically when the appliance reaches its operating temperature.

The humming noise is emitted by the motor (compressor). When the motor switches ON, the noise may briefly increase in volume.

The bubbling, gurgling or whirring noise is emitted by the refrigerant as it flows through the pipes.

The clicking noise can always be heard when the thermostat switches ON/OFF the motor.

Cracking noises may occur if ..

• the automatic defrosting is operating.
• the appliance is cooling down or warming up (material expansion).

A multi-zone or No-Frost appliance may cause a low hissing noise emitted by the air flow inside the appliance.

If these noises are excessively loud, the causes are probably not serious and are usually very easy to eliminate.

The appliance is not level

Please level the appliance with the aid of a spirit level. Use the height-adjustable feet or place packing under the feet.

The appliance is not free-standing

Please move the appliance away from kitchen units or other appliances.

Drawers, baskets or shelves are loose or stick

Please check the detachable components and, if required, refit them.

Bottles and/or receptacles are touching each other

Please move bottles and/or receptacles away from each other.

Minor problems and how to rectify them yourself

Customer service should NOT be contacted for every fault. Most faults are minor. Therefore, before you call customer service, please check whether you can eliminate the fault yourself based on the following information.

A technician who is called out to rectify a minor fault will charge the customer, even if the appliance is still under guarantee.

If the display, Fig. 5-8, does not illuminate:

check that the power is ON, that the plug is correctly inserted in the socket and that the appliance is switched ON.

If "E1" (flashing), Fig. 3/5, is displayed while starting the appliance:

A high temperature prevails in the refrigerator compartment. The current temperature of the refrigerator compartment is displayed a few minutes after starting the appliance.

If "E2" (flashing), Fig. ⑧/8, is displayed while starting the appliance:

A high temperature prevails in the freezer compartment. The current temperature of the freezer compartment is displayed a few minutes after starting the appliance.

If the refrigerator-compartment light does not function:

• The light bulb is defective. Pull out the mains plug and remove the cover (Fig. 8/A). Replace the defective light bulb with a light bulb of the same type (max. 15 W, 230 V, E14 holder).
• The light switch is sticking (Fig. 9/B). Check whether it can be moved. If not, please call customer service.

If the display, Fig. 3/8, flashes but the acoustic signal is not emitted:

the freezer compartment was too warm due to a power failure or a fault.

Minor problems and how to rectify them yourself

After pressing the alarm button, the warmest temperature which has prevailed in the freezer compartment is displayed for

5 seconds on display 8 (not flashing). Afterward, this value is cancelled. Then display 8 displays the current temperature in the freezer compartment without flashing.

If a temperature greater than +3^ is displayed, check the frozen food.

If flavour, odour and appearance have changed, make a ready-made meal out of the food and refreeze.

No longer store the frozen produce for the max. storage period.

If the display flashes, Fig. 8/8, and the warning buzzer sounds following prolonged operation of the appliance:

Fault, it is still too warm in the freezer compartment! The warmest temperature of the freezer compartment is displayed. To switch off the warning buzzer, press the

"alarm" button. The warmest temperature reached is then displayed. Possible causes of the fault:

• The clearance at the top of the appliance or in the base is blocked.

• The freezer-compartment door has not been closed correctly.

• Fresh food was frozen without Fast freeze,

• Too much fresh food was frozen at once,
• High ambient temperature.

After eliminating the fault, press the alarm button the display stops flashing when the freezer compartment has reached its operating temperature again.

If the freezer section door has been kept open for a long time and the temperature inside now no longer reaches the pre-set level,

so much ice has formed on the evaporator (source of cold temperature) that it cannot be defrosted by the fully automatic defrosting system. In this case take the frozen goods out of the freezer, wrap them well to keep them cold and store them

somewhere cool.

Switch off the appliance and open the freezer section door. After about 12 hours the ice on the cooling system will have thawed. Switch the appliance on again and put the frozen goods back inside.

If you are not able to rectify the problem with the help of the suggestions listed here, please call Customer Service.

Do not open the door more often than necessary, so that the cold temperature inside is retained for as long as possible.

Do not take any further action, especially with regard to the electrical parts of the appliance.
