11 Refrigerator compartment

You can keep dairy products, eggs, prepared meals, pastries, open preserves and hard cheese in the refrigerator compartment.

The temperature can be set from 33^ (1^) to 43^ (6^) .

The recommended temperature in the refrigerator compartment is 37^ (3^)

The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable groceries in the short to medium term. The lower the selected temperature, the longer the food remains fresh.

11.1 Tips for storing food in the refrigerator compartment

Only store food when fresh and undamaged.

• Observe the best-before date or expiration date specified by the manufacturer.
  Store food well wrapped or covered.
• Allow hot food and drinks to cool down first before placing in the appliance.

11.2 Chill zones in the refrigerator compartment

The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones.

Coldest zone

The coldest zone is in the pull-out container.

Tip: Store highly perishable food such as fish, sausages and meat in the cool-fresh compartment.

"Cool-fresh compartment", Page 19

Warmest zone

The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.

Tip: Store groceries that do not spoil easily in the warmest zone, e.g. hard cheese and butter. Cheese can then continue to release its flavor and the butter will still be easy to spread.

12 Cool-fresh compartment

In the cool-fresh compartment, you can keep fresh food fresh three times longer than in the refrigerator compartment.

The temperature can be set from 29^(-2^) to 40^ (4^) using pre-defined storage settings.

Storing food in the fresh compartment retains the quality of the food better. The low temperature and the optimum moisture provide ideal storage conditions for fresh food.

12.1 Storage recommendations for the cool-fresh compartment

You can find out here which cool-fresh compartment storage setting you can use.

Storage setting	Food
29°F 0	Meat, fish and seafood
32°F 0	Fruit, mixed load with fruit and vegeta- bles, sausage, cheese and dairy prod- ucts
32°F 00	Vegetables
34°F 0	Beverages
40°F 0	Snacks and other items

Tip: Fruit, vegetables, drinks and snacks may freeze below 32^ (0^)

Only use the storage setting 209Fneat and fish.

12.2 Storage times in the cool-fresh compartment at 32^ (0^)

The storage times are dependent on the original quality of your food.

Food Storage time

Fresh fish, seafood up to 3 days

Food Storage time

Poultry, meat (boiled/fried) up to 5 days

Beef, pork, lamb, sausage (cold meat) up to 7 days

Smoked fish, broccoli up to 14 days

Salad greens, fennel, apricots, plums up to 21 days

Soft cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, cauliflower up to 30 days flower

13 Freezer compartment

You can store frozen food, freeze food and make ice cubes in the freezer compartment.

The temperature can be set from 6^(-14^) to -7^(-22^) .

Long-term storage of food should be at 0^(-18^) or lower.

The freezer compartment can be used to store perishable food long-term. The low temperatures slow down or stop the spoilage.

13.1 Tips for storing food in the freezer compartment

• To quickly and gently freeze larger quantities of fresh food, place this in the top frozen food container.
• Do not bring food which is to be frozen into contact with frozen food.

13.2 Tips for freezing fresh food

• Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
• Freeze food in portions.
  Cooked food is more suitable than food that can be eaten raw.
  Vegetables: Wash, chop up and blanch before freezing.
• Fruit: Wash, pit and perhaps peel, possibly add sugar or ascorbic acid solution.
• Food that is suitable for freezing includes baked items, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, eggs without shells, cheese, butter and curd cheese, prepared meals and leftovers.
• Food that is unsuitable for freezing includes lettuce, radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, raw apples and pears, yogurt, sour cream, crème fraîche and mayonnaise.

Packing frozen food

If you select suitable packaging material and the correct type of packaging, you can determine the product quality and prevent freezer burn.

1. Place the food in the packaging.
2. Squeeze out the air.
3. Pack food airtight to prevent it from losing flavor or drying out.
4. Label the packaging with the contents and the date of freezing.

13.3 Shelf life of frozen food at 0^ (-18^)

Food Storage time

Fish, sausages, prepared meals up to 6 months and baked goods

Food Storage time

Meat, poultry up to 8 months

Vegetables, fruit up to 12 months

13.4 Defrosting methods for frozen food

CAUTION

Risk of harm to health!

During the thawing process, bacteria may multiply and spoil the frozen food.

Do not refreeze partly or completely thawed food.
Refreeze food only after cooking.
The frozen items should no longer be stored for the maximum storage period.
Defrost animal-based food, such as fish, meat, cheese, quark, in the refrigerator compartment.
Defrost bread at room temperature.
Prepare food for immediate consumption in the microwave, in the oven or on the cooktop.

14 Water system

Your appliance is equipped with water-carrying components.

The water system only works if a water filter or a bypass cap is installed.

14.1 Water filter

The water filter filters particles and the taste of chlorine out of the water.

The water filter reduces further contamination, e. g. from chloramines, lead and pharmaceutical products.

Note: The water filter does not filter bacteria or microbes out of the water.

Change the water filter:

every 6 months.
- iCHANGE FILTER
if the water output has visibly reduced.

Tips

• A new water filter can be purchased from customer service, your dealer or our website.
  If you do not want to use a water filter in your appliance or an external water filter system is installed, you can permanently replace the water filter with a bypass cap. The bypass cap filters only large particles out of the water and can be cleaned as required.

A bypass cap can be purchased from customer service or our website.

Changing the water filter or replacing it with a bypass cap

1. Reach into the recess below the filter cover, pull it forwards slightly ① and move it to the bottom left .②

1. Turn the water filter counterclockwise by 90^ and remove it ②

Note: When removing it, a small amount of water may drip out of the water filter. Remove the drips of water with a dry cloth.

Tip: You can dispose of the old water filter with your household garbage.

1. Insert the new water filter or the bypass cap in the filter opening as far as it will go and turn it 90^ clockwise to the stop.
2. Move the filter cover up to the right and slide back as far as it will go.
3. Discard the ice cubes produced during the first 24 hours, and dispense water for 5 minutes and discard.

14.2 Water dispenser

Dispense cold water via the water dispenser.

Putting the water dispenser into operation

Once the appliance has been connected or a new water filter has been installed, there will be air in the water system.

1. Keep dispensing water until it contains no more air bubbles.
   Remove any splashes of water with a dry cloth.
2. For hygiene reasons, dispense water for 5 minutes and discard.

Dispensing water

Press and hold the glass against the dispensing button ① or hold the glass under the water dispenser and press 日

Notes

After a while of continuous dispensing, the water stops being dispensed. Wait a few seconds before dispensing water again.
After water has been dispensed several times consecutively, water stops being dispensed. Wait a few minutes before dispensing water again.

14.3 Ice cube maker

Use the ice cube maker to produce ice cubes.

WARNING

Risk of injury!

Rotating parts may cause injury.

• Never reach into or underneath the ice cube maker.

Note: The ice cube maker automatically detects that the ice storage container is full. It could take up to 48 hours until the ice storage container is full.

Tips

• You can accelerate ice cube production by setting a colder freezer compartment temperature or by switching on Super freezing. This will slightly increase energy consumption.
  If the ice cubes taste stale, discard them and the cubes produced over the next 24 hours. If the ice cubes still taste stale, change the water filter.

Putting the ice cube maker into operation

Ice cube production starts as soon as the appliance is switched on and the freezer compartment has reached the set temperature.

Note: The first batch of ice cubes will be ready after approximately 4 hours.

For hygiene reasons, discard the ice cubes produced within the first 24 hours.

Switching on ice cube production

• Lift the ice cube maker cover upwards ① and press the ice cube maker button ②

The ice cube maker button lights up.

Note: If you press and hold the ice cube maker button for 3 seconds, the filter change status is reset.

Switching off ice cube production
