If the refrigerator compartment door (2) is left open for more than 60 seconds, an alarm signal sounds. Close the refrigerator compartment door (2) immediately. The alarm signal stops once the refrigerator compartment door (2) is closed.

14. Optimising energy consumption

In order to achieve the best possible cooling performance with low energy consumption, observe the fol- lowing: Do not position the appliance near a heat source (radiator or cooker etc.). The location should be not too warm, dry, dust-free and well ventilated. Ensure that air can circulate freely around the refrigerating appliance. The energy consumption will be lowest if all shelves and drawers are left inside the appliance when it is in use. If the door is left open for a long time, this can cause the temperature inside the appliance zones to in- crease significantly. Only open the door briefly when loading and removing foodstuffs. Less cold can es- cape if the door is left open for only a short time and therefore the appliance requires less energy. Select the temperature setting according to how full the appliance is. Ensure that the door seals are undamaged and that the door closes properly. If the appliance is left empty for an extended period of time, switch it off. Defrost and clean the appli- ance and allow it to dry. Leave the door open to prevent mould from forming in the appliance.

15. Deep-freezing food

Almost all types of food are suitable for freezing, except vegetables which are eaten raw, e.g. lettuce. Only high-quality food is suitable to be frozen. Freeze food in portions for single use and do not refreeze any products that have defrosted. Food to be frozen must not come into contact with food that has already been frozen. It may be neces- sary to reduce the quantity of food to be frozen if you intend to freeze food each day. Do not exceed the storage times recommended by the food manufacturers. Place the food in odourless, airtight, moisture-free, greaseproof and leach-resistant packaging. − Polythene bags and aluminium foil are the most suitable materials. − The food must be closely wrapped in airtight packaging. − Do not use glass packaging as the glass may break. Set the temperature control to Super freezing mode 24 hours before putting fresh food in the freezer. Af- ter loading with fresh food to be frozen, set the temperature control to -18°C.English - 55 Take care not to overload the freezer compartment as otherwise optimal performance cannot be guar- anteed and energy consumption will increase. − Signs of moisture or swelling of deep-freeze packaging indicates that the food has not been stored/ transported correctly and may be spoiled. Check the condition of the food before eating. Fruit can be frozen in the freezer compartment and ice cubes can be made. 15.1. Using ice cube trays Clean the ice cube tray (24) thoroughly with water and a little washing-up liquid before using for the first time. Fill the ice cube tray (24) with drinking water. Place the ice cube tray (24) upright in the bottom freezer drawer (10). As soon as the ice cubes are frozen, remove the ice cube tray (24) from the freezer drawer (10) and press the ice cubes out of the mould. 15.2. Defrosting food Depending on the type and use, food can be defrosted in a refrigerator, in a container filled with lukewarm water, in a microwave, at room temperature or in the oven. Fruit and vegetables which are going to be cooked do not need to be defrosted. Once defrosted, food is preferably to be eaten on the same day or stored in the refrigerator until the next day at the latest. Food must not be refrozen, even if it has not fully defrosted.

16. Storing food in the refrigerator compartment

NOTICE! Possible material damage! Possible risk of damage to the door seal Sensitive surfaces: Do not allow oil and grease to come into contact with the plastic parts and the door seal as the surface can become porous and brittle. To avoid food from becoming contaminated (spoiled), please observe the following instructions: If the door is left open for a long time, this can cause the temperature inside the appliance zones to in- crease significantly. Regularly clean surfaces that may come into contact with food and accessible drain systems. Store raw meat and fish in appropriate containers in the appliance to ensure that they do not come into contact with or drip onto other food. Store food on plates or in appropriate containers. Distribute the food evenly throughout the appliance. Please note that food must not touch the rear wall of the refrigerator compartment, as this could cause frost and condensation to form. Do not put hot food or food that is still warm in the refrigerator compartment. Allow the food/dishes to cool completely so as not to increase energy consumption and to avoid damage to the appliance. Ensure that foods that take on other smells easily, such as butter, milk and quark, are well packaged. i.e. in tightly sealed containers. Store food in the correct cooling zone according to its type and sensitivity. Storing vegetables with a high water content causes condensation to form on the vegetable containers. This does not impair the proper function of the refrigerator compartment. Dry vegetables thoroughly before placing them in the refrigerator compartment. The storage time is re- duced for vegetables with a high water content (e.g. leaf vegetables, cucumbers).56 - English

17. Cleaning and defrosting

Regularly clean surfaces that come into contact with food and the drainage system. WARNING! Risk of electric shock! There is a risk of electric shock from electrified parts. Before starting any cleaning work, pull the mains plug out of the socket (pull on the plug, not the cable). If the plug is not accessible, the corresponding fuse for the mains electricity supply to the house needs to be switched off. Do not touch the mains plug with wet or damp hands. DANGER! RISK OF EXPLOSION AND FIRE! An accumulation of gas can lead to explosions. Do not use any flammable liquids to clean the appliance or appliance parts. Do not use de-icer sprays. They may produce explosive gases. WARNING! Risk to health! Improperly handling foods can lead to food poisoning. Cooling is no longer sufficient if you switch off the appliance or in case of power failure. Frozen food can thaw or defrost completely. A rise in temperature of the frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance or clean- ing can shorten the storage life of the frozen products. Remove the frozen food from the appliance, wrap in several layers of newspaper and store in a sufficiently cool room or refrigerator. WARNING! Risk of injury! Risk of burns resulting from the low temperatures. Do not touch the freezer compartment’s frozen inner walls or frozen foodstuffs with your hands. Use a dry cloth, for example, to hold the frozen products. NOTICE! Possible material damage! Damage to the appliance due to improper handling of the sensitive surfaces of the appli- ance Sensitive surfaces: Do not allow oil and grease to come into contact with the plastic parts and the door seal as the door seal can become porous and brittle. Never use acidic, abrasive or granular, acetic-acid-, soda- or solvent-based cleaning agents. These may damage the surfaces of your appliance. Do not use any other mechanical equipment or synthetic agents to accelerate the de- frosting process, e.g. electric heaters, hot air blowers or hair-dryers or pointed or hard objects. The heat insulation and appliance interior are sensitive to scratches and heat and can melt. Do not operate any electrical appliances inside the fridge freezer. Both appliances may be damaged irreparably.English - 57 17.1. Defrosting Your appliance has a No-Frost function that prevents frost from forming on the inner walls and on food when the appliance is in use. The continuously circulating cold air prevents frost from forming. This means that it is not necessary to manually defrost the appliance, instead defrosting takes place automatically. The temperature increase when defrosting complies with ISO requirements. If you would like to prevent the temperature of frozen foods from increasing too much when defrosting the appliance, store the fro- zen food packed in several layers of newspaper. 17.2. Cleaning the appliance A rise in temperature of the frozen food during manual defrosting, maintenance or cleaning can shorten the storage life of the frozen products. Unplug the mains plug. Remove the drawers and the shelves from the refrigerator and freezer compartment. Wipe the refrigerator and freezer compartment with water and a mild detergent (e.g. washing-up liquid) and leave to dry completely. To prevent mould, vinegar (cleaning vinegar, household vinegar or vinegar essence) can be added to the water for cleaning. Cleaning agents containing sand, soda and acid are not suita- ble. Carefully rinse all fittings with water and a little washing-up liquid and leave to dry (vegetable drawer (12), crisper drawer (11), freezer drawer (10), glass shelf (14), egg tray (25), ice cube tray (24)). Clean the appliance surfaces, except the door seal, with a mild cleaning agent. Clean the door seal with clean water, wipe it off and allow to dry. Plug the mains plug back into the socket. As soon as the freezer compartment has reached a temperature of -18°C, you can put the food back into the appliance.

18. Replacing the interior light

CAUTION! Risk of injury/damage to the appliance! The replacement of the LED interior light is the responsibility of the manufacturer, its cus- tomer service or a similarly qualified person. If the interior light does not work, contact customer service.

WARNING! Risk of electric shock! There is a risk of electric shock due to live parts. Never try to open and/or repair an appliance component yourself. In the event of a fault, contact the Service Centre or another suitable professional re- pair workshop.

20. Measures in case of power failure

Food must not be refrozen, even if it has not fully defrosted. In case of a power failure, check the condition of food before eating (see also “3.3.4. Use of the appli- ance”).58 - English

Faults may occur during operation. Please use the following table to check whether you can resolve the problem yourself. All other repairs are prohibited and invalidate the warranty. Therefore, in the event of a fault, contact our Service Centre or another suitable professional repair workshop. Fault Cause Solution The appliance is not working. Power supply interrupted Check whether the mains plug is plugged in. Check whether the mains socket is live by plugging in another electrical ap- pliance (e.g. a bedside lamp). Have the mains socket repaired, if neces- sary. Check that the mains cable is not dam- aged. Contact customer services if necessary. The interior lighting is not working. LED interior lighting is de- fective Contact customer services (see “18. Replacing the interior light” on page 57) The temperature is not low enough. The door does not seal properly or is opened too often. Arrange food so that it does not pre- vent the door from closing properly. Open the door for less time. The ambient temperature is less than 10°C/higher than +38°C. The appliance is designed to work in a temperature range from +10°C to +38°C. Air circulation behind the appliance is impeded.
