• Wait 30 minutes after the installation, before you connect the appliance to the mains.
• If the appliance was transported with a tilt of more than 30 degrees, wait 4 hours before you connect the appliance to the mains.

Before the initial operation

• Remove the protective sheets and all packaging material incl. the transport securing of the storage spaces and of the trays from the appliance.
• Dispose the packaging professionally.
• You might notice a slight 'new smell' when you start the appliance for the first time. It goes away once the appliance begins to cool.
• Clean the interior with tepid water with the addition of washing-up liquid. Clean the equipment separately with rinsing water, not in the dishwasher.
• Before you fill the appliance with food, let it work for 24 hour, so that the target temperature can be reached.

Installation of the appliance

• The appliance should be installed in a dry and well-aired room.
  The appliance can be operated at a humidity of max. 70% .
• The surrounding temperature, at which the appliance can be operated, can be taken from the appliance specification sheet at the end of this manual.
• Do not install the appliance outdoors.
• Bear in mind that you can pull the power plug anytime.
• Protect the appliance from direct insolation. It should not be installed near heat sources (stove, heater, etc.). If this, however, cannot be avoided, you should put isolation between the heat source and the appliance.
• You must not imbed the appliance in a cabinet. The installation of the fridge directly under a board or a cabinet is disallowed.
• The unevenness of the floor can be compensated with the two vertically adjustable screw-in feet in the front, so that safe stability is attained.

Installation measures

If the appliance is placed sideways on a wall, you will leave a lateral gap of at least 60 mm, so that the doors of the appliance can open in a 90-degree angle.

Width (W) D		Depth (D) Height		(H)
550 mm 580		mm 845 mm
A B C E F
903 mm	100 mm	25° 30 mm	100 mm

Ventilation

The air warmed behind the appliance needs to circulate freely. For this reason, the circulation of air cannot be compromised.

Caution! Do not cover possible existing ventilation openings in the back area of the top cover plate!

Connection

• Before you connect the appliance, you have to make sure that itself and the power plug do not show any transport damages.
• Connect the appliance only to a shockproof outlet. The mains voltage has to correspond to the one stated on the tool identification plate.
• The appliance complies with the guidelines that are obligatory for CE marking.
• Do not connect the appliance to an inverter
• The power plug should not touch the backside, in order to avoid possible vibration noise.
• The appliance can be put into operation by plugging the mains plug into the point.
• A complete switching-off only occurs by pulling the mains plug.
• If the appliance has been disconnected from the mains, wait approx. 5 minutes after plugging in the mains plug before setting the temperature controller to the desired position.

Operating elements

The temperature is set via the controller on the top right corner of the appliance.

Place it in a central position to set an optimal temperature for normal use. The more you turn the knob clockwise, the lower the temperature in the appliance will be. The more you turn the knob counterclockwise, the higher the temperature in the appliance will be. Make sure the desired temperature has been reached by using a thermometer.

Freezer Door

The freezer door should always stay closed so that the food does not defrost. Thereby, the formation of ice and frost accretion is reduced. Therefore, make sure that the door is only open for withdrawal of food or rather for filling the freezer.

Freezing/Storing of Food

• The appliance is designed for the freezing of food, for the long-term storage of frozen food as well as for the appliance ion of ice cubes.
• Fresh food should be frozen to the core as quickly as possible, so that the nutritional value, the vitamins, etc. do not get lost. For this reason, put the food in one or two rows in the freezer.
• Do not bring them into contact with already frozen food.
• Do not exceed the freezing capacity per day! The respective value for the maximum freezing capacity can be taken from the appliance specification sheet at the end of the manual.

• The freezing time shortens if the food to be frozen is divided into small portions.

• Store the frozen food in the appliance only packaged. You can use uncoloured plastic sheets/bags or aluminium foil as packaging material. Remove the air from the packaging before freezing and check for airtightness. Provide every packaging with a label with the content, date of freezing and date of expiry on it.

• Do not freeze carbonated liquids, warm foods or liquids in a glass container or bottle.
• Defrost frozen appliances in a refrigerator. Foods keep their taste when they are defrosted slowly, and the emitted cooling energy from these appliances can be used to maintain the intended temperature in the refrigerator.
• If the appliance is turned off for a longer period of time, e.g., because of a mains failure, leave the door closed. Thereby, a more significant loss of cooling energy can be avoided. The maximum storage time during malfunction can be taken from the appliance specification sheet at the end of the manual. Because of the higher interior temperature, the storage time for food is shortened.

Data for expiry dates of frozen food are indicated in the chart per month.

2·6	4·8	8·12

Do not store the frozen food longer than the given time in the freezer. Pay attention to the expiry date of the frozen food indicated by producer.

Making ice cubes

A special ice-cube tray is provided for making ice cubes. Fill the tray up to 3/4 with drinking water and place it in the freezer compartment for a few hours. The ice cubes are easier to remove from the tray if the tray is left standing at room temperature for 5 minutes.

Cleaning and Defrosting (Maintenance)

Cleaning

• Always pull the mains plug before cleaning.
• Do not pour water into the appliance.
• Tepid water with a bit of washing-up liquid is suitable for the regular maintenance.
• Clean the equipment separately with rinsing water, not in the dishwasher.
• Do not use aggressive, abrasive or alcoholic detergents.
  After cleaning it with clear water, wipe the surface and carefully dry it off. Subsequently, plug the mains plug with dry hands.
• In order to save energy and maintain the efficiency, you should clean the condenser (on the backside) and the compressor at least twice a year with a broom or vacuum cleaner.
• The rating label in the interior of the appliance cannot be damaged or even removed while cleaning.

Defrosting

If the ice layer in the interior is 2 - 4mm thick, the appliance must be defrosted. Clean it at least twice a year.

• Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
• Remove food from the appliance and store it as cool as possible, e.g., together with ice packs and covered in a plastic recipient. Please remember that the lifetime of the goods is shortened by the temperature increase and that they should be consumed as quickly as possible.
• Leave the door open. To speed up defrost-ing, place one or more pots with hot but not boiling water in the freezer.
• Warning! Do not use other mechanical devices or any other means, e.g., heating appliances, to speed up defrosting.
• Dry the appliance thoroughly after cleaning.
• Plug in the mains plug. Wait approx. 5 minutes and set the temperature controller to the desired position.

Tips for Energy Saving

• For the installation of the appliance, choose a cool, dry and well-aired room.
• Protect the appliance from direct insolation. It should not be installed near heat sources (stove, heater etc.). If this cannot be avoided, some sort of isolation between heat source and appliance has to be used.
• Don't cover the ventilation openings and grid. Provide enough circulation of air on the backside of the appliance.
• Let warm food cool down before you store it in the fridge.
• Do not leave the door open too long when withdrawing or putting food inside. Otherwise, the formation of ice in the interior will be accelerated.
• Do not set the temperature lower than necessary. More details on temperature settings can be taken from the chapter 'Operating elements'.

Operation Noises

There might be some typical operation noises when the appliance is turned on. These are:

• Noise of the electric motor is arising from the working compressor. When the compressor starts to operate, then the noises get slightly louder for a short time.
