Energy saving mode

The device is put into energy saving mode.

The inside temperatures are automatically adjusted to around +5°C in the fridge and to -18°C in the freezer and kept constant.

Vacation mode

CAUTION:

Do not store any fresh or perishable food in the appliance during this time.

Cause of longer absence you can put the appliance into vacation mode.

During this period, the fridge is cooled down to only +17°C. It does not only save energy, but also prevents unpleasant odors and mold, as the appliance is not completely switched off.

The cooling in the freezer is not affected and continues to cool at min. -18°C.

Super freezing mode

When the super freezing function is activated, the device operates at maximum power to speed up the freezing process.

The super freezing function switches off automatically after about 50 hours. The internal temperature adapts to the preset temperature.

The function can be ended at any time before the switch-off time has expired by the MODE button.

Door alarm function

As soon as the fridge or freezer door remains open for more than 60 seconds, an alarm sounds in 30 second intervals until the doors are properly closed.

If the appliance doors remain open for more than 10 minutes, the interior light in the appliance goes out.

Starting the appliance

• Connect the appliance to the power supply.
• Set the operating conditions. See also the following section "Settings".

Settings

Note that the temperature will change depending on the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening and the amount of food in the appliance.

During initial operation, adjust the lowest possible temperature (= highest power level), or select the super freezing function first, until the appliance has reached the desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is recommended to turn the control back to a medium setting; correcting the temperature at a later point would then be easier.

NOTE:

In generally a medium power level works best for an optimized food storage. A high power level also increases the energy consumption.

Interior light

By opening the fridge door, the interior light switches on automatically.

Storing food

NOTE: Recommendation!

To guarantee that the temperature is low enough, you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before initial loading foods.

CAUTION:

Always pay attention to the storage instructions on the sales packaging.

To avoid contamination of food, respect the following instructions:

• Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems (see "Cleaning and Maintenance").
• Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or drip onto other food.
• Two-star frozen-food compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice-cream and making ice-cubes.
• One-, two- or three-star com- *** compartments are not suitable for the freezing of fresh food.
• If the appliance is out of use for long period, follow the instructions under "Switching off".

Storage space

Depending on requirements, shelves/drawers (partially and depending on model) can be adjusted in height or removed to optimize the storage space.

i NOTE:

For the most efficient use of energy, place all shelves/drawers in their original position.

Fridge

Always store food covered or packed to prevent drying-out and transfer of odor or taste onto other food items. You may pack the food with e.g.

• Polyethylene plastic bags or foil
- Plastic bowl with lid
- Special plastic covers with elastic strip
- Aluminum foil

Temperature zones and storage recommendations The optimal cooling temperature is around

5\~7 degrees for the central area of the cooling.

Different cooling zones are created by the air circulation. Regardless of the power level, cold air drops off.

• The coldest zone is on the cooling rear wall and in the lower cooling part. Recommended for storing perishable foods such as meat, fish and sausages at around 2-3 degrees.
• About that it becomes less cold. For dairy products such as yoghurt, cheese and co., the center of the cooling is just the right temperature at around 5 degrees.
• Well-packed leftovers or preserves needs less cooling. The upper cooling part at around 6-8 degrees could be the right place.
• The cooling door is one of the warmest locations. The upper racks are good location for food that

needs moderate cooling, such as butter and eggs. There is space for drinks in the lower door racks.

- The vegetable box (depending on the model) is suitable for fruit and vegetables at a temperature of around 8 degrees, depending on the cooling temperature. To ensure that delicate fruits and vegetables feel good, a glass shelf above avoids the falling cold.

Fruit/Vegetable box with slider

The right humidity is crucial for long-lasting fresh fruits and vegetables. With the help of a slider you can regulate the humidity inside the fruit/vegetable box.

Slider position:

low humidity, recommended for fruits high humidity, recommended for vegetables

This allows ideal storage conditions for fruits and vegetables.

Fresh box with slider

The cold air supply to the fresh box can be regulated with the help of a slide control depending on the type of food storage.

→ increased cold air supply

Suitable for fresh food such as fish, meat and seafood at a temperature 1\~2°C lower than in the fridge compartment. For this type of storage, it is recommended to set the temperature in the fridge compartment to 4°C.

→ reduced cold air supply

Suitable for storing cold-resistant types of fruit and vegetables.

The four-star freezer allows you to store frozen food at a temperature of -18^ C or colder for several months to produce ice cubes / to freeze fresh food.

Freezing

• Fresh food should be frozen as fast as possible to the core. During freezing operation, the temperature of fresh food should be lowered as fast as possible to keep formation of ice crystals as little as possible and not to damage the food structure.
• Frozen food should be kept in contact with the bottom of the compartment.
• Keep a space between the individual items, so that the cold air can circulate.

Storing frozen food

• Packed frozen merchandise should be stored in accordance with the manufacturer's data. Make sure the food items do not defrost after purchase and to store them as fast as possible in the freezer.
• It is possible to store food for longer periods of time. The period might vary, so observe the storage information on the packaging of the merchandise.

General safety precautions

• Do not store bottles or cans. These can break when the contents freeze – or even explode, if they contain carbonated drinks.
• Once products have been defrosted halfway or completely, they should be consumed as soon as possible and should not be frozen again, except they have been processed to a ready meal.
• Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not eat ice cream directly from the freezer. The cold can cause injuries in the oral cavity.
• Touching metal parts inside the unit can cause symptoms like burns if the skin is very sensitive.

- Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.
