4.1 Temperature setting

AFTER HAVING INSTALLED THE APPLIANCE WAIT 4 HOURS BEFORE YOU CONNECT IT TO THE MAINS.

1. Set the thermostat to position 3 (daily-use-temperature) as soon as you have switched on the appliance. After 5 hours the appliance has reached its normal operating temperature and is ready for operation.
2. If you desire a higher (warmer) temperature, set the thermostat from position 3 to position 2 or lower.
3. If the ambient temperatures are high (e.g. hot summer-days), set the thermostat to position 4 or higher to decrease the temperature inside the appliance.
4. If you have set a lower (colder) setting, some ice may occur on the back of the appliance. In such a case set the thermostat to a higher (warmer) position.
5. The setting 0/OFF switches off the compressor only. You must unplug the appliance to disconnect it from the mains.

4.2 Operation parameters

1. The appliance can only reach the relevant temperatures when:

a. the a ambient temperature meets the climatic class.
b. the doors close properly.
c. you do not open the doors too often or too long.
d. the door seals are in proper condition.
e. the appliance is properly positioned.
f. you have not overfilled the appliance.
g. you do not store warm or hot food in the appliance.

1. High ambient temperatures and simultaneously operating at the coldest setting may make the compressor operate permanently to keep the temperature constant inside the appliance.

2. Defrost the appliance periodically as encrusted ice will decrease the power and increase the energy consumption of the appliance.

4.3 Helpful hints/energy saving

◆ Cooked food can be stored in the appliance. Let it cool down to room temperature before you put it into your appliance.
◆ Store your food in colourless, airtight and tasteless materials.
Some food like meat, fish etc. may become dry and release strong odours. You can avoid these by wrapping them into aluminium foil or plastic wrap or putting them into an airtight bag or container.
Allow ample storage place for your food. Do not overfill your appliance.
- Wrap your food in plastic wrap or suitable paper and place each kind of food in a particular location in your appliance. This will prevent any contamination, a loss of water and a mingling of odours.
Let warm or hot food cool down to room temperature before you put it into your appliance. Otherwise the energy consumption will increase and encrusted ice will be generated.
If you buy frozen food, the packaging must not be damaged and the product must be properly stored (sales container -18°C or lower).
Put the frozen food you want to defrost into the cooling-compartment of you appliance.
How to defrost frozen food depends on your kitchen-equipment and the purpose, you want to use the frozen food for.

√ room temperature

√ in the cooling-compartment of your appliance
√ in an electrical oven4
√ in a microwave5

❖ Try opening the door as little as possible, especially when the weather is warm and humid. If you open the door, close it as fast as possible.
- Permanently check, that the appliance is well-ventilated. The appliance has to be well-ventilated from all sides.

5. Cleaning and maintenance

1. ⚠️WARNING! Disconnect the appliance from the mains before you clean or maintain it.
2. Always keep the appliance clean so that unpleasant odours do not occur.
3. Dust deposits on the condenser will increase the energy consumption. Clean the condenser twice a year with a vacuum cleaner or a soft brush.
4. Take off all rings and bracelets before cleaning or maintaining the appliance; otherwise you will damage the surface of the appliance.

Detergent

1. You can use commercial available washing-up liquids.
2. Do not use any abrasive cleansers, perfumed, bleaching or alcohol-containing cleaning products, wax polishes, solvents. Do not use any organic detergents! ^6 Do not use essential oils!

External cleaning

➢ Clean the exterior of the appliance with lukewarm water. Dry thoroughly.

Internal cleaning

➢ Clean the interior of the appliance with lukewarm water and a soft cloth. Dry thoroughly.

Door seals

▶ Clean with warm water. Dry thoroughly.

Water drain

➢ Check the opening of the water drain on the back of the cooling compartment regularly. Clean the opening with a small wooden rod. Do not use any sharp-edged items; otherwise you will damage the appliance.

5.1 Defrosting

Manual defrosting (Freezing compartment)

⚠ WARNING! Never use any mechanical items, knives or other sharp-edged objects to remove the encrusted ice. RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK!

1. Remove the content from the freezing-compartment and put it into a cooling box.
2. Switch off the appliance by turning the thermostat to position 0/AUS/OFF and disconnect it from the mains.
3. When the encrusted ice melts put some dry cloths into the freezer-compartment to hold the water back.
4. Remove the big pieces of ice first. Afterwards remove the small pieces of ice.
5. Wipe and dry the appliance and door seals with dry and soft cloths.
6. After cleaning leave the door open for some time to ventilate the appliance.

Automatic defrosting (Cooling compartment)

1. The cooling compartment is defrosted automatically. The water runs into a container near the compressor.
2. If the automatic defrosting does not meet the requirements, e.g. on days with high ambient temperatures and humidity, defrost the appliance manually as described above.

5.2 Replacing of the illuminant

1. ⚠️ WARNING! Switch off and unplug the appliance before replacing the illuminant.

2. Remove the cover.

3. Take out the illuminant.

4. Replace it by a new one (1,5W).

5. Reinstall the cover.
