Switching off the alarm Engaging the safety lock ^ Press and hold the alarm button. ^ Then press the Super freeze button as well and keep both buttons pressed in for approx.
The correct temperature It is very important to set the correct temperature for storing food in the appliance. Micro organisms will cause food which is not stored at the correct temperature to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influences the growth rate of these micro organisms. Reducing the temperature reduces their growth rate. . . . in the freezer – if too much food is stored in it at once, For freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for a long time a temperature of at least -18 °C is needed.
The correct temperature When pressing the buttons the following are shown in the display: – When first pressed: The last temperature selected flashes. – Each subsequent press of the button: adjusts the temperature shown in 1 °C steps. – Keeping the button pressed in: adjusts the temperature continually. Approx. 5 seconds after letting go of the button the current actual temperature of the refrigerator or freezer is automatically shown. If you have adjusted the temperature, wait for approx.
The correct temperature The temperature displays flash, if Temperature display brightness – a different temperature is being set, The appliance is supplied with the brightness of the temperature display set as low as possible. However, if the door is opened, a setting changed or if the alarm is sounding, the temperature display will appear much brighter for approx. 1 minute. – the temperature in the appliance has risen by several degrees, indicating that the appliance is warming up too much.
Alarm Your appliance has been fitted with a warning system which ensures that the temperature in the freezer cannot rise unnoticed and to avoid energy being wasted if the door is left open. The alarm system is always active. You cannot disable it. Temperature alarm If the temperature in the freezer gets too warm an alarm will sound and the temperature display will flash. The temperature the appliance is set at determines the temperature the appliance recognises as being too warm.
Super cool, super freeze and dynamic cooling Super cool Freezing fresh food The super cool function can be used to rapidly reduce the temperature in the refrigerator section to its lowest setting. Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. This way the nutritional value of the food, its vitamin content, appearance and taste are not impaired. Switching on super cool Super cool is particularly recommended for faster chilling of large amounts of fresh food or drink.
Super cool, super freeze and dynamic cooling Super freeze Dynamic cooling Switch the super freeze function on before putting fresh food into the freezer. With dynamic cooling the temperature inside the refrigerator section is distributed to all areas more evenly. All food stored in the refrigerator section will be chilled to about the same degree. The temperature is controlled as normal with the temperature buttons. Exceptions: – when putting in frozen food. – when freezing up to 2 kg fresh food daily.
Using the refrigerator section efficiently Different storage zones Natural air circulation gives rise to different temperature zones inside the refrigerator section. Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the appliance. Make use of the different zones when placing food in the appliance. Coldest zone The coldest zone in the refrigerator section is directly above the vegetable containers. Use this for all delicate and highly perishable food, e.g.
Using the refrigerator section efficiently Storing food correctly Energy saving tips Store food covered or packaged. This will prevent food smells or tastes from affecting other foods and prevent food from drying out. The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be avoided by setting the correct temperature and maintaining good standards of hygiene. – Frequently opening the door or keeping it open for too long will cause the temperature in the appliance to rise.
Adjusting the interior fittings Moving the shelves Adjusting the door shelves The shelves can be adjusted according to the height of the food. ^ Push the door shelf upwards then remove it by pulling it forwards. ^ Pull the shelves forward as far as they will go then lift them upwards to remove them. ^ Replace the door shelf at the required position. Ensure that it is securely pushed back into position. ^ With the rear barrier facing upwards place the shelf at the required position.
Freezing and storing food Maximum freezing capacity Home freezing To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer freezes through to the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freezing capacity must not be exceeded. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24 hour period is given on the data plate “Freezing capacity ....kg/24 hrs”. Only freeze fresh food which is in a good condition.
Freezing and storing food – Do not season fresh foods or blanched vegetables before freezing. Only season cooked food lightly before freezing but care should be taken as the taste of some spices alters when frozen. – Do not place hot foods or drinks in the freezer. This causes already frozen food to thaw and increases the energy consumption considerably. Allow hot foods and drinks to cool down before placing them in the freezer. Packing ^ Freeze food in portions.
Freezing and storing food Freezer calendar The freezer calendar on the freezer drawer gives the length of time which various foods can be stored for effectively. Where the storage time given on the packaging differs, follow the advice on the packaging. ^ Press down on the hook a underneath the rear of the separator plate and pull the plate forwards and out b. To put the separator plate back in push it back into place making sure it audibly clicks into position.
Freezing and storing food Defrosting Ice cubes Frozen food can be defrosted in different ways: – in the microwave oven, – in the oven using the “Fan” or “Defrost” setting, – at room temperature, – in the fridge. Poultry It is particularly important to observe food hygiene rules when defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid from defrosted poultry. Pour it away and wash the container it was in, the sink and your hands. Fruit should be defrosted at room temperature in its packing or in a covered bowl.
Freezing and storing food Freezer tray Cool pack The freezer tray is useful for freezing small items such as berries and vegetables. They can be frozen individually and therefore maintain their shape when defrosted. The cool pack prevents the temperature in the freezer rising too quickly in the event of a power cut. Place the cool pack in the upper drawer directly on top of food or to save space on the freezer tray. The cool pack will be at its most effective after it has been in the freezer for approx.
Defrosting Refrigerator section Freezer section Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the refrigerator section whilst it is in use. These are automatically removed and defrosted by the appliance. This freezer is equipped with a "No-frost" system. The freezer section defrosts automatically. The condensate is drained away via a channel and drain hole into an evaporation system at the back of the appliance.
Cleaning and care Never use cleaning agents containing abrasive substances such as sand, soda, acids or chemical solvents. "Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are also unsuitable as they can cause matt areas to appear. For stainless steel surfaces, use a proprietary stainless steel cleaning agent. Make sure that no water can penetrate into the electronic unit or into the light. Do not let water get into the drainage channel and drain hole when cleaning.
Cleaning and care Ventilation gaps After cleaning ^ The ventilation gaps should be cleaned on a regular basis with a brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up of dust will increase the appliances energy consumption. ^ Replace all shelves and accessories in the refrigerator section. Door seals Do not use any grease or oil on the door seals as these will cause the seals to deteriorate and become porous over time.
