- Safety and warning information
- ■ Keep naked flames and/or ignition sources away from the appliance,
- ■ thoroughly ventilate the room for several minutes,
- ■ switch off the appliance and pull out the mains plug,
- ■ inform customer service.
- ■ Never use electrical appliances inside the appliance (e.g. heater, electric ice maker, etc.). Explosion hazard!
- ■ Never defrost or clean the appliance with a steam cleaner! The steam may penetrate electrical parts and cause a short-circuit. Risk of electric shock!
- ■ Do not use pointed or sharp- edged implements to remove frost or layers of ice. You could damage the refrigerant tubes. Leaking refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite.
- ■ Do not store products which contain flammable propellants (e.g. spray cans) or explosive substances in the appliance. Explosion hazard!
- ■ Do not stand on or lean heavily against base of appliance, drawers or doors, etc
- ■ For defrosting and cleaning, pull the mains plug out or switch off the fuse. Do not pull out the mains plug by tugging on the power cord.
- ■ Store high-percentage alcohol tightly closed and standing up.
- ■ Keep plastic parts and the door seal free of oil and grease. Otherwise, parts and door seal will become porous.
- ■ Never cover or block the ventilation openings of the appliance!
- ■ Avoiding placing children and vulnerable people at risk:
- At risk are children, people who have limited physical, mental or sensory abilities, as well as people who have inadequate knowledge concerning safe operation of the appliance.
- Ensure that children and vulnerable people have understood the hazards.
- A person responsible for safety must supervise or instruct children and vulnerable people who are using the appliance.
- Only children from 8 years and above may use the appliance.
- Supervise children who are cleaning and maintaining the appliance.
- Never allow children to play with the appliance.
- ■ Do not store bottled or canned drinks (especially carbonated drinks) in the freezer compartment. Bottles and cans may burst!
- ■ Never put frozen food straight from the freezer compartment into your mouth. Risk of low-temperature burns!
- ■ Avoid prolonged touching of frozen food, ice or the evaporator pipes, etc. Risk of low-temperature burns!
- ■ Keep children away from packaging and its parts. Danger of suffocation from folding cartons and plastic film!
- ■ Do not allow children to play with the appliance!
- ■ If the appliance features a lock: keep the key out of the reach of children!
- ■ for refrigerating and freezing food,
- ■ for making ice.
- The delivery consists of the following parts:
- ■ Free-standing appliance
- ■ Interior fittings (depending on model)
- ■ Bag containing installation materials
- ■ Operating instructions
- ■ Installation manual
- ■ Customer service booklet
- ■ Warranty enclosure
- ■ Information on the energy consumption and noises
- ■ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
- ■ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
- ■ Refrigerator compartment: +4 °C
- ■ Freezer compartment: -18 °C
- ■ When the appliance has been switched on, it may take several hours until the set temperatures have been reached.
- Do not put any food in the appliance beforehand.
- ■ The sides of the housing are sometimes heated slightly. This prevents condensation in the area of the door seal.
- ■ If the freezer compartment door cannot be immediately re-opened after it has been closed, wait until the resulting low pressure has equalised.
- ■ when the appliance is switched on,
- ■ when large quantities of fresh food are placed in the appliance,
- ■ if the freezer compartment door is open too long.
- ■ Coldest zone is on the rear panel inside the appliance and in the chiller container. Fig. !/12
- Note
- Store perishable food e.g. fish, sausage, meat in the coldest zones.
- ■ Warmest zone is at the very top of the door.
- Note
- Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. Cheese can then continue to release its flavour and the butter will still be easy to spread.
- ■ before placing large quantities of food in the refrigerator compartment.
- ■ for the fast cooling of drinks.
- ■ To store deep-frozen food.
- ■ To make ice cubes.
- ■ To freeze food.
- ■ Switch on super freezing before placing fresh products in the compartment (see chapter entitled “Super freezing”).
- ■ Remove the fittings. The food can be stacked directly on the shelves and in the bottom of the freezer compartment.
- ■ Freeze large quantities of food preferably in the very top compartment where food freezes particularly quickly and therefore also gently.
- ■ Freeze fresh food as close as possible to the side panels.
- ■ Packaging must not be damaged.
- ■ Use by the “use by” date.
- ■ Temperature in the supermarket freezer must be -18 °C or lower.
- ■ If possible, transport deep-frozen food in an insulated bag and place quickly in the freezer compartment.
- ■ Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
- ■ Keep food which is to be frozen away from food which is already frozen.
- ■ To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place in airtight containers.
- ■ The following foods are suitable for freezing: Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbs, eggs without shells, dairy products such as cheese, butter and quark, ready meals and leftovers such as soups, ste...
- ■ The following foods are not suitable for freezing: Types of vegetables, which are usually consumed raw, such as lettuce or radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, whole apples, pears and peaches, hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, crè...
- ■ Fish, sausage, ready meals and cakes and pastries:
- up to 6 months
- ■ Cheese, poultry and meat:
- up to 8 months
- ■ Vegetables and fruit:
- up to 12 months
- ■ at room temperature
- ■ in the refrigerator
- ■ in an electric oven, with/without fan assisted hot-air
- ■ in the microwave
- ■ smaller quantities of fruit and vegetables – high air humidity
- ■ large quantities of fruit and vegetables – low air humidity
- Notes
- ■ Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. aubergines, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored outside the refrigerator at temperatures of approx....
- ■ Condensation may form in the vegetable container depending on the type and quantity of products stored. Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust air humidity in the vegetable container with the humidity controller.
- m Caution
- ■ Do not use abrasive, chloride or acidic cleaning agents or solvents.
- ■ Do not use scouring or abrasive sponges.
- The metallic surfaces could corrode.
- ■ Never clean shelves and containers in the dishwasher.
- The parts may become deformed!
- ■ Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room! The appliance should not be installed in direct sunlight or near a heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker).
- If required, use an insulating plate.
- ■ Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.
- ■ Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment and use the low temperature of the frozen food to cool refrigerated food.
- ■ Regularly defrost the freezer compartment to remove the layer of frost.
- A layer of hoarfrost will impair refrigeration of the frozen food and increase power consumption.
- ■ Open the appliance as briefly as possible.
- ■ To avoid increased power consumption, occasionally clean the back of the appliance.
- ■ If available: Fit wall spacers to obtain the indicated energy rating of the appliance (see Installation instructions). A reduced wall gap will not restrict the function of the appliance. The energy rating may then increase slightly. The gap of 75...
- ■ The arrangement of the fittings does not affect the energy rating of the appliance.
