Do not store explosive substances or spray cans with flammable propellants in the appliance. Refrigeration tips
• Stock the refrigerator compartment in away that allows you to optimally exploitthe internal temperature conditions.– Place spreadable butter and cheese inthe uppermost door shelf (6). Thetemperature is the highest there.– Store preserves, glasses and eggs inthe door shelf (6). It is best to store eggsin the egg tray provided. – Place beverage cartons and bottles in the large door shelf (8). Place full containers closer to the hinge to reducethe stress on the door.– Place cooked and baked food on theglass shelves (13).– Place fresh meat, game, poultry,bacon, sausages and raw fish on theglass shelf (10) over the fruit/vegetable drawer (9). The temperature is the lowest there. – Place fresh fruit and vegetables in the fruit/vegetable drawer (9).– Place bottles in the bottle shelf (12).• Only store high-percentage alcohol ina vertical position and tightly closed.• Allow hot food to cool before you place it in the refrigerator compartment.• The temperatures in the appliance and thus your energy consumption may rise– if the doors are opened frequently or for a long time. – if the room temperature is above or below the prescribed room temperature.• The energy consumption also depends on the location selected (for more information, see page 47). Preserving quality
• To ensure that food retains its aromaand freshness in the refrigeratorcompartment, make sure that the foodyou wish to refrigerate in the refrigeratorcompartment is always packed. Usespecial plastic containers orcommercially available foils for food.• Place the food– in the refrigerator compartment in such a way that the air can circulate freely. Do not cover the shelves with paper orother materials. – not directly on the back wall. It may otherwise freeze to the back wall.

(9)Page 41 Freezing food / storing frozen food Freezing food / storing frozen food WARNING Risk of explosion! The storage of flammable gases and liquids may result in the formation of ignitable gas/air mixtures in the appliance. Explosions may result. Do not store explosive substances or spray cans with flammable propellants in the appliance. WARNING Health hazard! Improper handling, insufficient refrigeration or overstocking may cause the stored food to spoil. If spoiled food is consumed, there is a risk of food poisoning.

Ensure in particular that raw meat and fish are adequately packed to prevent adjacent food from becoming contaminated by salmonella or other contaminants.

Comply with the shelf life recommendations of food manufacturers. Note that the shelf life of frozen food may decrease due to an increase in temperature inside the appliance (defrosting, cleaning or power failure).

In the event of an extended power failure or a malfunction of the appliance, remove the stored frozen products from the appliance and store in a sufficiently cool room or another refrigerator (max. storage time in case of malfunction: 12 hours). After a malfunction, check whether the stored food is still fit for consumption. Do not refreeze fully or partially thawed food, but rather immediately consume it. CAUTION Risk of injury! The improper handling of the appliance may cause injury. Risk of burns from low temperatures.

The food and the inside walls of the freezer compartment have a very low temperature. Never touch with wet hands. This may cause skin injuries. Skin damage is also possible if the skin is dry.

Prior to consumption, allow ice cubes or ice pops to thaw a little. Do not put them in your mouth directly after taking them from the freezer compartment. Freezing Freezing means thoroughly freezing – ideally "shock-freezing" – fresh food at room temperature to the core. If cooled too slowly, the food "freezes to death", i.e. its structure is destroyed. Retaining consistency, taste and nutritional value demands a uniform storage temperature of –18 °C.Page 42 Freezing food / storing frozen food Preparing food

• Only freeze food of acceptable quality.

• Freeze fresh and prepared meals unsalted and unseasoned. Food frozen when unsalted has a longer shelf life.

• Allow prepared food to cool before you freeze it. This not only saves energy, but also prevents excessive frost formation in the freezer compartment.

• Carbonated beverages are not suitable for freezing as the carbon dioxide escapes when frozen. The right packaging Packaging is important when deep-freezing. It should protect against oxidation, microbes, the transmission of odours and flavours and desiccation (freezer burn).

• Only use packaging material that is durable, impermeable to air and liquids, not too rigid and that can be labelled. It should be identified as freezer packaging. Portioning

• Wherever possible, create flat portions, as they freeze through to the core more quickly.

• Stroke out the air from the freezer bag, as it encourages desiccation and takes away space.

• To close the bags, use plastic clips, rubber bands or adhesive tape.

• Fill liquid containers ¾ maximum, as liquids expand when frozen.

• Do not store glass or metal containers containing liquid. The containers may burst.

• Only freeze high-percentage alcohol when tightly closed.

• Label frozen goods according to the type, amount, freezing date and use-by date. Wherever possible, use smudge- proof felt-tip pens or adhesive labels. Freezing food

• Comply with the maximum freezing capacity. You can find the "Freezing capacity in kg/24h" in the data sheet on page 55.

• As soon as the temperature in the freezer compartment reaches -18 °C, you can freeze fresh food at room temperature.

• The fresh goods must not come into contact with the frozen goods already in storage, as they may otherwise thaw. If it is impossible to prevent contact with the stored frozen goods, we recommend generating additional freezing capacity in the freezer compartment prior to freezing the fresh goods. After storing the fresh goods, the temperature will temporarily rise in the freezer compartment. After a further 24 hours, the goods will be frozen to the core. Storing frozen food The deep-freeze chain must not be interrupted on the way from the manufacturer to your freezer. The temperature of the frozen goods must never exceed -18°C. For this reason, never purchase goods

located in frosted, very icy freezers.

stacked above the prescribed mark.

that are partially clumped together (which is especially easy to tell with berries and vegetables).

that exhibit traces of snow and juice. Transport frozen goods in special boxes made of polystyrene or in insulation bags. Observe the storage conditions and times specified on the packaging.Page 43 Freezing food / storing frozen food Defrosting food Observe the following basic rules when defrosting food:

To defrost food, take it out of the freezer and allow it to defrost, optimally at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

To defrost food quickly, use the defrost function of your microwave, for example. Observe the manufacturer specifications and bear in mind that defrosting may result in the proliferation of bacteria and germs.

Prepare defrosted food as quickly as possible.

Dispose of the defrosting liquid.

If you only wish to defrost part of a package, remove the part and close the package again immediately. This prevents "freezer burn" and reduces the formation of ice on the remaining food.

Always defrost meat, poultry and fish in the refrigerator. Make sure that the frozen food is not resting in its own defrosting liquid. Preparing ice cubes

• Fill ¾ of the included ice cube tray with fresh drinking water and place it horizontally in the freezer compartment. The ice cubes are released most easily if you twist the ice cube tray or hold it briefly under running water.Page 44 Care and maintenance Care and maintenance WARNING Risk of electrical shock! Touching live parts may result in serious injury or death.

Before cleaning, pull out the power plug or switch off the fuse.

When pulling out the power plug, always pull the plug itself, not the cable. CAUTION Risks for children and persons with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities!

Children must not carry out cleaning or user maintenance unless supervised. NOTE The surfaces and appliance parts are damaged by improper handling.

Never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents or those containing soda, acid or solvent. Such agents attack the plastic surfaces. We recommend all-purpose cleaners with a neutral pH value.

Only use care products for the outer surfaces.

Door seals and plastic appliance parts are sensitive to oil and grease. Remove any contaminants as quickly as possible.

Only use soft cloths. Inspecting and cleaning the door seals The door seals must be inspected regularly to ensure that no warm air enters the appliance.

1. To inspect the door seals, stick in thin

pieces of paper at different positions. The paper must be equally hard to pull through at all the positions.

2. If the seal does not make even contact

everywhere: Heat the seal at the relevant positions carefully with a hair dryer and pull it out a little with your fingers.

3. Clean dirty seals with clear water

only. Defrosting the refrigerator compartment This is not necessary, as the refrigerator compartment of your appliance has automatic defrosting. Frost and ice are defrosted automatically and the condensation is collected in a condensation tray on the back of your appliance. The heat of the motor causes the condensation to evaporate. Cleaning the refrigerator compartment

1. Switch off the appliance by

pressing the Adjust button (1) for 5 seconds.

2. Pull out the power plug from the

socket or switch off the fuse.

3. Remove the chilled goods and

place them in a cool room.

4. Take out the fruit/vegetable drawer (9),

the door shelves (6) and (8) and the glass shelves (13) and (10) and clean all the parts in lukewarm dishwater. Then dry all the parts thoroughly.Page 45 Care and maintenance

5. Wipe off the interior with a cloth

dampened slightly with dishwater. Ensure that no liquid enters the control and the refrigerator lighting.

6. When wiping again, add a few drops of

vinegar to the water to prevent mould formation. Wipe the interior dry and leave the door open for a while to allow ventilation. Defrosting and cleaning the freezer compartment WARNING Risk of explosion! The improper handling of the appliance may cause a deflagration/explosion!

Never use defroster sprays. They may generate explosive gases.

7. Clean the opening of the condensation

drain (11) using the provided cleaning swab.

8. Re-insert the shelves and drawer.

9. Put the food back in the refrigerator

10. Plug the power plug back in or switch

for 5 seconds. The appliance will switch on.

Defrost the appliance in due time before an ice and frost layer of over 5 mm forms. If too much ice forms, the power consumption rises and the freezer door may no longer close tight.

Do not use any tools other than those recommended by the manufacturer to accelerate the defrosting process. For example, do not use electrical heaters, knives or devices with an open flame, e.g. candles. The thermal insulation and the inner container are sensitive to scratches and heat and may melt. Note the following when cleaning:

Never use aggressive, granular or abrasive cleaning agents or those containing soda or solvent. We recommend all-purpose cleaners with a neutral pH value.

The door seal is sensitive to oil and grease, which cause the rubber to become porous and brittle. (11 )Page 46 Care and maintenance

The surfaces are damaged by unsuitable cleaning agents. Only use care products for the outer surfaces.

Only use soft cloths. Wherever possible, defrost the appliance in the winter, when the outside temperature is low. Then you can store the food on the balcony during the defrosting process, for example. Alternatively, you can wrap up the frozen food tightly in newspaper and store it in a cool room or an insulation bag.

1. Before defrosting, generate additional

freezing capacity by setting the freezer compartment to Super (3) for 3 hours by means of the Mode button (5).

2. After this time, switch off the appliance

by pressing the Adjust button (1) for 5 seconds.

3. Pull out the power plug from the

socket or switch off the fuse.

4. Take out the food from the refrigerator

and the frozen food from the freezer compartment.

5. Ensure that your food remains

sufficiently cooled.

6. Place a bowl with hot, but not boiling

water in the freezer compartment. This accelerates the defrosting process.

7. Leave the door open during the

defrosting process and place a cleaning rag in front of the appliance to absorb leaking condensation. The defrosting time depends on the thickness of the ice layer. Based on experience, you can begin with the cleaning of the appliance after approx. 1 hour.

8. Wipe out the interior with warm water

and detergent. When wiping again, add a few drops of vinegar to the water to prevent mould formation.

9. Clean the door seal with clear water

only; it is sensitive to oil and grease.

10. Wipe everything completely dry,

including the door seal, and aerate briefly.

11. Put the food back in the

refrigerator/freezer compartment.

12. Plug the power plug back in the socket

or switch on the fuse again.

13. Press and hold the Adjust button (1) for

5 seconds. The appliance will switch on.

15. As soon as the temperature −18 °C has

been reached in the freezer, turn the temperature regulator back to its normal position.

For this reason, please use the table to verify whether you can remedy the fault. WARNING Risk of electrical shock due to improper repair! Never attempt to repair a defective – or supposedly defective – appliance yourself. You may thereby put yourself and future users at risk. Only authorized specialists may carry out these repairs. Problem Possible cause Solutions, tips, explanations Compressor off, interior lighting off. The appliance is switched off. Press the Adjust button (1) for 5 seconds. Socket without electricity. Check the socket with another device. Power plug loose. Make sure the power plug is inserted correctly. Compressor off, interior lighting on. The desired temperature has been reached. Additional refrigeration is unnecessary. If the internal temperature rises, the compressor switches on automatically. Excessive refrigeration in the appliance. The temperature regulator is set too high. Select a lower setting (see "Setting the temperature" on page 38). Insufficient refrigeration in the appliance. The temperature regulator is set too low. Select a higher setting (see "Setting the temperature" on page 38). The door is not closed tightly or the door seal is not making full contact everywhere. See "Inspecting and cleaning the door seals" on page 44. The appliance is located in the vicinity of a source of heat. Place an insulation panel between the appliance and the heat source or change the location. Warm food stored in the appliance. Only store cooled food. Too many goods placed in freezer. Place a maximum of 2 kg in the freezer at one time. The ambient temperature is too low or too high. Adjust the ambient temperature to the climate class (see "Data sheet" on page 55). The compressor appears to be defective. Set the appliance to maximum refrigeration (see "Setting the temperature" on page 38). If the compressor does not switch on within an hour, notify our service department (see page 245). The appliance is generating noises. Operating noises are related to the functioning of the appliance and do not indicate a fault. Continuous noise: The refrigeration unit is running. Flow noises: Refrigerant is flowing through the pipes. Clicking: The compressor is switching on or off. Disturbing noises. Inspect installation and readjust if necessary. Water has collected at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment. The condensation drain (11) is blocked. Remove the blockage of the condensation drain using the provided cleaning swab.Page 54 Environmental protection Environmental protection Disposing of the appliance Used appliances must not be disposed of with household waste! If the appliance is no longer used, every consumer is obligated to dispose of used appliances separately from household waste and to bring it to a collection point of his/her municipality or district, for example. Waste electrical equipment is accepted there free of charge. This ensures that old appliances are recycled properly and prevents negative impacts on the environment. For this reason, electronic appliances are marked with the symbol shown here. You can also find more information about this topic in the Service pages of our current catalogue and on our website under "Service".

Saving on energy also protects our earth from excessive heat. Thanks to its environmentally friendly insulation and its technology, your new appliance consumes little energy. Sticker “OK” (not all models) The “OK” temperature monitor can be used to determine temperatures below +4 °C. Gradually reduce the temperature if the sticker does not indicate “OK”. Note When the appliance is switched on, it may take 12 hours until the temperature is reached. Correct settingData sheet Data sheet for household electrical refrigerators and freezers and their combinations according to Regulation (EU) No. 1060/2010, 643/2009.

1) Rating from A+++ (= low consumption) to D

(= high consumption).

2) Determined according to Regulation (EU) No.

1060/2010 and Regulation (EU) No. 643/2009. The applied measurement and calculation methods meet the requirements of standard EN 62552.

3) The climate class means that the appliance is

designed for operation at the named ambient temperature. If a combination is specified in the climate class information, this means for an appliance for which e.g. the combination SN-ST is specified that it is suitable for temperatures of + 10 °C to + 38 °C. If the room temperature falls significantly below this, the appliance will not switch on as frequently. This means that an undesirable temperature increase may result. If the appliance is located in a warm room, it must switch on more frequently to maintain the low temperatures inside the appliance. For this reason, please ensure compliance with the ambient temperature. Ambient temperature per climate class SN: +10 °C to +32 °C N: +16 °C to +32 °C ST: +16 °C to +38 °C T: +16 °C to +43 °C The data provided here refers to the ambient conditions exactly specified in the test standard.
