Intended use
- The refrigerator is intended for use in the home. It is suitable for the cooling, freezing and storing of frozen food, as well as for making ice. If the appliance is used for purposes other than those intended or used incorrectly, no liability can be accepted by the manufacturer for any damage that may be caused.
- Alterations or changes to the freezer are not permitted for reasons of safety.
- If you use the refrigerator in a commercial application or forpurposes other than the cooling, freezing or frozen storage of foods, please observe all valid legal regulations for your application.
Prior to initial start-up
- Check the refrigerator for transport damage. Under no circumstance should a damaged appliance be plugged in! In the event of damage, please contact the vendor.
Refrigerant
The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant circuit of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable.
- During transportation and installation of the appliance, be certain that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged.
- If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:
- avoid open flames and sources of ignition;
– thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.
Safety of children
- Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from children!
- Please make old appliances unusable prior to disposal. Pull out the mains plug, cut off the mains cable, break or remove spring or boltcatches, if fitted. By doing this you ensure that children cannot lock themselves in the fridge when playing (there is risk of suffocation!)or get themselves into other dangerous situations.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction con-
cerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.!
Daily Operation
- Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temperatures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.
- Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer compartment. They can burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer compartment. Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be stored in the freezer compartment.
- Do not put ice creams or ice cubes in the mouth immediately after removal from the freezer compartment. Very cold ice can freeze to the lips or tongue and cause injury.
- Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food.
- Do not operate any electrical appliances in the refrigerator/freezer (e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).
- Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance and unplug it, or pull the house fuse or switch off the circuit breaker.

Disposal
Appliance Packaging Information
All materials are environmentally sound! They can be dumped or burned at an incinerating plant without danger!
About the materials: The plastics can be recycled and are identified as follows: >PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the interior. >PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are all free of chlorofluorocarbon.
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be disposed of at a waste-paper recycling collection location.
Disposal of old Appliances
For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be disposed of properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of its service life - for your new appliance as well.
Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable. Remove plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any snap or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing children lock themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place themselves into other life-endangering situations.
Disposal:
- The appliance may not be disposed of with domestic waste or bulky refuse.
- The refrigerant circuit, especially the heat exchanger at the back of the appliance, may not be damaged.
- The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.
Remove transport safeguard
The appliance and the interior fittings are protected for transport.
- Remove all adhesive tape and packing pieces from the interior of the appliance.
Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use is affected by the ambient temperature. The appliance should therefore
- not be exposed to direct sunlight;
- not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
- only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is designed.
The climate classification can be found on the serial plate, which is located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification: each climate classification:
If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following minimum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the appliance:
- for electric cookers 3 cm;
- for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.
If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is required between the cooker and the refrigeration appliance.
If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to prevent the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.
Your appliance needs air
For safety reasons, minimum ventilation must be as shown Fig.
Attention: keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
Rear spacers
Fit the rear spacers contained in the appliance to ensure even dissipation of heat generated during operation.
Proceed in the sequence illustrated by the figures.

- Unscrew the handles. Refit them on the opposite side after having piercing the plugs with a punch. Cover the holes left open with the plugs contained in the documentation pack.
Electrical connection
Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain if supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the mains at the installation location.
e.g.: AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or
220 ... 240 V\~ 50 Hz
(i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz)
The rating plate is inside the appliance on the left.
A correctly installed, earthed socket is required for the electrical supply. The supply must have a fuse rating of at least 10 Amps.
If the socket is not accessible once the appliance is built in, the electrical installation must include suitable means of isolating the appliance from the mains (e.g. fuse, cut-out, current trip or similar with a minimum contact separation of 3 mm).
Attention: The mains connection cable may only be replaced by a skilled electrician. Please contact your dealer or our customer service department for repairs.
Prior to Initial Start-Up
- Please clean the appliance interior and all accessories prior to initial start-up (see section: "Cleaning and Care").
Control panel
The thermostat knob (D is the switch.
The green pilot lamp (C), which comes on when the panel is switched on and the mains voltage is available. In this switch position, the refrigerating unit automatically operates by system control.
Temperature adjustment with ambient temperature below +16°C
When the ambient temperature in the room in which the appliance is situated is less than 16^ C, the ambient switch (EXTRAFREEZE-B) must be push. The yellow pilot light (A) comes on. In this way, when the ambient temperature is low, the compressor operates for longer periods to ensure that the storage temperature of -18^ C is maintained inside the freezer compartment.
Important!
If the ambient temperature rises to above +16°C, de-activate the ambient switch in order to avoid unnecessary energy consumption. The yellow pilot light goes out.
Starting up and temperature regulation
- Insert the plug of the connection lead into the plug socket with protective earth contact.
Setting „0“ means: Off.
Setting „1“ means: Hightest temperature, (warmest setting).
Setting „4“ (end-stop) means: Lowest temperature, (coldest setting).
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in the mind that the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on:
-the quantity of food stored
-how often the door is opened
The temperatures in the refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment cannot be independently regulated.
Set the thermostat on a medium position 2-3. This provides in the freezer - 18^ or colder and in the fridge about +5^ . This position is usually adequate for everyday use.
Important!
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold setting on the temperature regulator (position "4") can cause the compressor to run continuously.
If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer setting (position "3" to "4"). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.
Interior Accessories
Storage shelves
- You should always slide one of the full size glass storage shelf into the lowest set of guides, above the fruit and the vegetable containers, and
keep it in this position.
- The height of the storage shelves can be adjusted:
- To do this pull the storage shelf forward until it can be swivelle-dupwards or downwards and removed.
- Please do the same in reverse to insert the shelf at a different height.
natural_image
Line drawing of a hand holding a metal rod above two shelves (no text or symbols)Adjusting the upper door rack
- Depending on the food stored, the upper door racks can be changed to other holders or removed. Take out the refrigerators food, press the door racks digonally upwards at their edges, reposition them, and press them back into place.
Variable storage box
Some models are equipped with a variable storage box which is fitted under a door shelf compartment and can be slid sideways.
The box can be inserted under any door shelf compartment.
-
To change the position of the storage box; lift the shelf compartment with the box upwards and out of the holders in the door and remove the retaining bracket out of the guide under the shelf compartment.
-
Reverse the above operation to insert the shelf at a different height.
Fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
- do not store warm food or evaporating liquide in the refrigerator
- do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.
- Position food so that air can circulate freely round it.
Useful hints:
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer(s)For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bootles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.
Freezing and storing frozen food
You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.
Important!
- For any freezing of fresh food the temperature in the freezer compartment must be -18^ or colder.
Please adjust the thermostat accordingly in advance.
- Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be frozen within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food several days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to 3/4 of that on the rating plate. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
- Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cause increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.
- Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufacturer.
- Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.
- Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temperatures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.
- Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in the freezer. Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be stored in the freezer.
- All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamination of other frozen goods occurs.
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the food.
- To achieve faster freezing of food or to freeze the maximum quantity as indicated on the rating plate push the EXTRAFREEZE switch (B) on 24 hours before loading the fresh food. Thermostat setting can stay as used. The yellow pilot light (A) flashes up.
Place all already frozen food close together in the middle or lower basket.
To freeze large amount take the top basket out and put the fresh food direct on the cooling surface.
Small amount of fresh food can be freeze in the top basket without pushing the EXTRAFREEZE switch.
Non-frozen food should not be close to or touch already frozen food to avoid defrosting of those.
After finishing freezing don't forget to switch of the EXTRAFREEZE switch.
- If suitable for storage food the top basket can be taken out and the food be placed direct on the cooling shelf. In that case please observe the loading mark at the cabinet and do not place food outside this mark.
The middle and lower basket have always to remain inside.
Preparation of Ice Cubes
-
Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer compartment and leave to freeze.
-
To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it under running water for a few seconds.
Important! Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scraper supplied.
Freezing Calendar
• The symbols on the drawers show different types of frozen goods.
- The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing. The lower value applies to foods with high fat content.
Ice pack
There are two ice packs in one drawer of the freezer.
In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice packs will lengthen the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to become too warm by several hours. The ice packs can only fulfil this task optimally if it is placed in the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food. You can use the ice packs for cooling cold bags.
Defrosting
Refrigerator
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.
Freezer
The freezer compartment, however, will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whenever the tickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs.
However when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out as follows:
-
Remove the frozen food from the freezer, wrap it in several layers of newspaper and put it in a very cool place.
-
Switch off the appliance and pull out the plug, or remove or unscrew the safety fuses.
-
Leave the freezer compartment door open.
-
Insert the plastic scraper into the recess provided under the defrost water channel and place a collecting basin under it.
natural_image

Once defrosting is completed keep the scraper for future use;
-
Turn the thermostat knob to the required setting or replace the plug in the power socket.
Warning!
Never use metal tools to scrape off the frost
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting, may shorten their safe storage life.
Switching off the appliance
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:
- Remove all refrigerated and deep-frozen packages as well as ice trays.
- Switch off the appliance by turning the temperature regulator to position "0".
- Remove the mains plug or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
