Operation and control elements
You are advised to clean the appliance before switching it on
for the rst time (see "Cleaning").
Switch on the appliance approx. 2 hours before loading it with
frozen food for the rst time. Do not load with frozen food until
the temperature shows at least -18°C.
Switching the appliance on and o
Pressing the main on/o switch 3 always switches the
entire appliance, both the refrigerator and the freezer
compartment, on or o.
W Switching on: Press the on/o buttons
3 or 9 so that
the temperature displays light up or ash.
- Refrigerator with BioFresh compartment: The interior
light will light up when the door is open.
- Freezer compartment: When putting the appliance into
operation and when it is warm, lines are shown in the
freezer compartment display until a temperature less than
0 °C is reached.
W Switching o: Press the main on/o switch
3 for about
one second, so that the temperature displays go out.
W If you only want to switch o the refrigerator and Bio-
Fresh compartment (keeping the freezer compartment
switched on; useful when you go on holiday, for example),
press the on/o switch
9. The refrigerator temperature
display
7 and the interior light will go out. The freezer
temperature display
1 must remain on.
Setting the temperature
The appliance is set as standard for normal operation mode,
a temperature of + 5 °C is recomended for the refrigerator
compartment and -18 °C for the freezer compartment.
Lower temperature/colder: Press the Down-setting but-
ton, left for refrigerator compartment:
8, right for freezer
compartment:
2.
Increase temperature / warmer: Press the Up-setting
button.
- While you are entering the temperature, the set tempera-
ture will ash on the display.
- When you press the temperature setting buttons for the
rst time, the most recent setting (known as the "refer-
ence 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.
- Approximately 5 seconds after the button has been re-
leased, the display will automatically show the actual freez-
ing or cooling temperature (known as the "actual setting").
You can change the temperatures
W in the refrigerator: between 9 °C and 4 °C, and
W in the freezer: between -16 °C and -26 °C.
Whether you can obtain the lowest temperature depends
on where the appliance is positioned (if it is located in an
area with a high ambient temperature it will not reach the
lowest temperature).
W The temperature in the BioFresh compartment is control-
led automatically, between 0 and 3°C.
If you require a higher or lower temperature, e.g. for storing
sh, you can alter the temperature setting in the BioFresh
compartment. For more information on this, please see the
section "Additional functions".
Temperature display
In normal operation, the following settings will be displayed:
- the average refrigerator temperature in display
7 and
- the warmest frozen food temperature in display
1.
The display will ash:
- if you change the temperature or
- if the temperature rises by several degrees, indicating
cold loss, e.g. if you place fresh, "warm" food in the freezer
or if you remove or re-pack frozen food the temperature
may rise for a short time due to warm air owing into the
freezer. Once you have nished loading or re-pack ing, the
electronics will automatically re-set the temperature to the
most recent setting. Short-term rises in temperature will not
aect the frozen food.
W If "F 1" to "F 5" appears in the display, the appliance has a
fault. Consult the customer service department indicating
the fault number displayed.
Audible warning signal
The audible warning signal helps to protect frozen food and to
save energy.
W The audible warning device is switched o by pressing
the audible warning on/o button
5.
- It switches o automatically as soon as the temperature is
low enough.
It always sounds
- if the freezer temperature is not low enough (dependent
on the temperature setting). The temperature display
ashes at the same time.
- if warm, fresh food has been placed in the freezer.
- if too much warm air from the outside has entered when
re-arranging or removing frozen food.
The temperature display will continue to ash until the cause
of the alarm has been rectied.
