Activating/Deactivating the refrigerator The refrigerator is deactivated by holding key D (refrigerator temperature adjustment) firmly pressed for three seconds.
Refrigerator compartment Use the refrigerator compartment for short-term food storage The average refrigerator temperature of 0 °C-10 °C is not low enough for long-term storage of foods; it is suitable only for short-term food storage. Adjusting the height of glass shelves The shelves are height-adjustable to accommodate various item sizes. The shelves can be taken out for height adjustment and cleaning.
Refrigerator compartment Stocking example Foods should be grouped according to the various temperature ranges in the refrigerator compartment. (1) Eggs, butter, cheese (2) Tinned drinks and foods, seasonings (3) Drinks, bottles (4) Preserves (5) Meats (6) Flours, preserves, milk (7) Processed meats, sausage (8) Fruits, vegetables, lettuce Removing the veggie drawer cover First, lift the rear of the shelf in direction (1), and then pull the shelf out in direction (2).
Refrigerator compartment Using the veggie drawer The appliance is equipped with a veggie drawer suitable for keeping fruits and vegetables. The humidity level in the veggie drawer is adjustable.

Notes on refrigeration Let warm foods and drinks cool down to room temperature before putting them in the refrigerator compartment. Wash and dry off fresh foods before storing them. Pack and seal foods before storing them. This prevents drying and odour dissipation. Pack the food into portions suitable for your household. Place the foods that will be consumed the soonest towards the front so as not to leave the appliance door open longer than necessary. Do not overstock the refrigerator.
Tips on refrigeration Remove the leaves of root vegetables to prevent them from absorbing the nutrients. Thawing frozen foods inside the refrigerator helps conserve energy. Items not requiring refrigeration: Onions, peppers, garlic, ginger. Items not suitable for refrigeration: Gourds, melons, bananas, pineapple. Refrigeration promotes their decomposition. Do refrigerate unripe fruits.
Home bar Operation To open the bar, press the compartment button. The bar compartment opens. The home bar can be used without opening the appliance door; which saves energy. When the home bar is opened, the refrigerator light comes on. You can place drinks and other foods in the home bar.

Otherwise children could be injured and the home bar damaged. Note: The home bar can be used without opening the appliance door; which saves energy. Close the home bar as soon as possible to keep the cold inside the appliance. The warning system is activated if the door is not properly closed.
Freezer compartment Use the freezer compartment for long-term food storage A low temperature in the freezer compartment is necessary for long-term food storage. Do not exceed the maximum length of storage indicated on the package. Removing and cleaning glass shelves First, lift the rear of the shelf in direction (1), and then pull the shelf out in direction (2). Finally, tilt the shelf in direction (3) and remove it once the door is open 90º.
Notes on freezing Let warm foods and drinks cool down to room temperature before putting them in the freezer compartment. Pack the food into portions of up to 2.5 kg suitable for your household. As a result, the portions will freeze faster and the quality after thawing remain optimal for preparation. Package the food before freezing it. The packages should be dry to prevent their sticking together.
Starting up the ice maker and dispenser Preparations before starting up the ice maker and dispenser The ice maker can be connected either directly to a water supply line if fitted with a filter (option A) or to a drinking water container if fitted with a water pump (option B). Cut the water line to the right length to prevent it from kinking. The recommended maximum length for the water line is 12 m.
Ice maker and dispenser operation Precautions Do not connect the ice maker water line when the temperature is below 0 ºC, otherwise the water line may freeze Open the valve and flush the water line to check the line connections for possible leaks. Close the valve again when the water is clean and clear. The ice maker does not become operational until the temperature has reached or gone under -15 °C. (Do not consume the first batch of ice cubes.
Removing and installing the ice cube container Removing the ice cube container Press the middle section of the ice cube container in and pull it off its shelf. Re-placing the ice cube container Slide the ice cube container in the channel on both sides of the inner sleeve until it is clasped into position. If the ice cube container cannot be fit into position, take it out again, rotate the support by 90°, and then re-insert the container so that the clamp locks with the channel.
Dispenser operation Dispenser operation Choose crushed ice, refrigerated water or ice cubes. Slightly push a glass against the ice/water lever as shown in the illustration. (1) Dispensing crushed ice Press the appropriate button so that the indicator for crushed ice lights up. Lightly press against the lever so that crushed ice is supplied.

The outlet closes five seconds after ice cubes have been supplied.
Defrosting · Cleaning Defrosting The appliance defrosts automatically. Cleaning Clean the refrigerator regularly to prevent odour build-up. For safety reasons, first unplug the power cord. Clean the appliance using a soft rag or sponge and lukewarm water, to which you may add a little bit of a neutral dishwashing liquid. Dry off surface water with a rag.
Inoperation In the event of a power outage Even in the summer, foods can be kept cool for several hours during a power outage. In the event of a power outage, refrain from adding foods to the appliance and opening the doors. Caution: A temperature drop in the freezer compartment, caused by a power outage or other malfunction, reduces the storage life span and quality of the foods. If you know there will be a power outage, produce more ice cubes and place them in the top section of the refrigerator.
Inoperation When on vacation Before a long vacation, turn off the appliance, take out the food, remove the frost, clean the interior and leave the door open to prevent odour build-up. Transportation Unplug the power cord. Remove all foods from the refrigerator. Secure the shelves, drawers and baskets with tape. Close the appliance door and secure it with tape.
Troubleshooting Long operation time and a temperature increase of housing and compressor are normal during initial operation. Some of the sounds produced during initial operation or at start-up will fade during normal operation. During initial operation, the appliance housing may become warm to prevent condensation.
Troubleshooting When operating, the fan produces an audible sound. The specified power consumption at an ambient temperature of 25°C with 5°C in the refrigerator and -18°C in the freezer after 24 hours of normal operation complies with government standards. Higher power consumption is normal with large amounts of food in the freezer and when the appliance door is opened frequently or for long times. Hum Hum The evaporator lines may produces audible sounds when the temperature is changing.
