Operation and control elements
You are advised to clean the appliance before switching it on for
the rst time (see "Cleaning").
If your appliance has a freezer compartment, switch it on approx. 2
hours before lling the freezer with frozen food for the rst time.
Switchingtheapplianceonando
W To switch on: Press the on/o button 3 so that the tempera-
ture display lights up or ashes.
- The lighting will light up when the door is open.
W Toswitcho:Press the on/o button for approx. two seconds
so that the temperature display goes out.
Setting the temperature
The appliance is pre-set for normal operation. We recommend
temperatures of +5°C in the refrigerator.
This will ensure an average frozen food temperature of approx.
-18°C in the freezer compartment*.
W To reduce the temperature:
Press the DOWN button 2.
W To increase the temperature:
Press the UP button 2.
- While you are entering the temperature, the
set temperature
willash
on the display.
- When you press the temperature setting buttons for the rst
time, the
most recent setting (known as the "reference
setting
") is displayed.
- You can change the settings in increments of 1°C by briey
pressing the buttons again. If the buttons are held down the
temperature setting will change faster.
- The system switches over automatically about 5 seconds after
the button was last pressed and displays the
average cooling
temperature (known as the
"actual setting").
- You can change the temperatures in the refrigerator between
9°C and 2°C.
Temperature display
The average temperature in the refrigerator compartment is
displayed in normal mode.
If "
F0" to "F5" appears in the display, the appliance has a fault.
Consult the customer service department indicating the fault
number displayed, so that they can arrange for your appliance to
be serviced accurately and quickly.
Fast-Cooling
The Fast-Cooling button switches the appliance to maximum
cooling.
It is recommended particularly if you wish to cool
large quantities
of food, drinks, freshly baked cakes or meals rapidly.
W To switch on: Press the Fast-Cooling button 4 briey so that
it lights up. The refrigerator temperature will drop to its lowest
value.
Note: The Fast-Cooling function uses slightly more energy. After
6 - 12 hours, however, the appliance switches back
automati-
cally
to normal energy-saving operation.
W Avoid prolonged skin contact with cold surfaces or chilled/frozen
food. This could cause pain, numbness and frostbite. In the
case of prolonged skin contact, protective measures should
be taken, e.g. gloves should be worn.
W Do not eat ice cream, particularly ice lollies or ice cubes, imme-
diately after taking them from the freezer compartment as there
is a risk of "burning" because of the very cold temperatures.
W Do not consume food which has been stored for too long, as
it could cause food poisoning.
Installation and ventilation information
W Avoid positioning in direct sunlight or next to an oven,
radiator or similar.
W Do not block the ventilation areas. Always en-
sure that the appliance is properly ventilated.
W
Standard EN 378 species that the room in which
you install your appliance must have a volume of 1 m
3
per 8 g
of R 600a refrigerant used in the appliance, so as to avoid the
formation of inammable gas/air mixtures in the room where
the appliance is located in the event of a leak in the refrigerant
circuit. The quantity of refrigerant used in your appliance is
indicated on the type plate on the inside of the appliance.
W Only install the refrigerator/freezer in stable furniture.
W Please follow the enclosed installation instructions.
Connecting to the mains
Power supply (AC) and voltage
at the operating point must comply with the details on the type
plate. The type plate is located on the inside left of the appliance,
g.
A.
W The appliance must be connected with a properly
installed fused socket.
W
The socket must have a 10 A fuse or higher. It must be away
from the back of the appliance and easily accessible.
W Do not
- connect to stand-alone inverters and
- operate with so-called energy-saving plugs
- this can damage
the electronic system,
-
connect to the supply with other electrical equipment using a dis-
tributor strip or an extension cable - risk of overheating or re.
W When removing the mains cable from the back of the appliance,
remove the
cable holder to prevent vibration noise.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the fol-
lowing code: green/yellow = earth, blue = neutral, brown = live.
Warning! This appliance must be earthed.
Notes on energy saving
W Make sure the appliance is in a well ventilated position.
W Open the appliance doors for as short a time as possible.
W The lower the temperature setting, the higher the power
consumption.
W Arrange the food in an organised way (see Appliance at a
glance). Do not exceed stated storage periods.
W Remove food as needed in order that it does not warm too
much.
W Store all food well packed and covered, this avoids frost from
forming.
W Allow hot food to cool down to room temperature before plac-
ing inside the appliance.
W Allow frozen food to defrost inside the fridge.
W If an ice layer forms in the freezer compartment*, you should
defrost it. This will improve the cold transfer and reduce energy
consumption.
