en ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Bottles which contain a high percentage of alcohol must be sealed and stored in an upright position. 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 for the appliance. People (childern incl.) who have limited physical, sensory or mental abilities or inadequate knowledge must not use this appliance unless they are supervised or given meticulous instructions.
en * Disposal of your old appliance The delivery consists of the following parts: Old appliances are not worthless rubbish! Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances. ■ This appliance is identified according to the European guideline 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment – WEEE. The directive specifies the framework for an EU-wide valid return and re-use of old appliances. ã=Warning Redundant appliances 1. Pull out the mains plug. 2.
en Ventilation The air on the rear panel of the appliance heats up. Conduction of the heated air must not be obstructed. Otherwise, the refrigeration unit must work harder. This increases power consumption. Therefore: Never cover or block the ventilation openings! Cavity depth A cavity depth of 560 mm is recommended for the appliance. If the cavity depth is smaller – at least 550 mm – the energy consumption increases slightly. Installation location Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room.
en Getting to know your appliance Controls Fig. 2 1 2 3 Please fold out the illustrated last page. These operating instructions refer to several models. The features of the models may vary. The diagrams may differ. Fig. 1 4 * Not all models.

Alarm functions Door alarm The door alarm (continuous sound) switches on if the appliance door is open for longer than one minute. Close the door to switch off the warning signal.
en Refrigerator compartment The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage location for meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals and pastries. Note the chill zones in the refrigerator compartment The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones: ■ Storing food ■ ■ ■ ■ Store fresh, undamaged food. The quality and freshness will then be retained for longer.
en 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. +8 °C to +12 °C for optimum preservation of quality and flavour. ■ Condensation may form in the vegetable container depending on the type and quantity of products stored.
en Freezing and storing food Purchasing frozen food ■ ■ ■ ■ 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. Note when loading products ■ ■ Freezing fresh food Freeze fresh and undamaged food only. To retain the best possible nutritional value, flavour and colour, vegetables should be blanched before freezing.
en Packing frozen food To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place in airtight containers. 1. Place food in packaging. 2. Remove air. 3. Seal the wrapping. 4. Label packaging with contents and date of freezing. Suitable packaging: Plastic film, tubular film made of polyethylene, aluminium foil, freezer containers. These products are available from specialist outlets. Unsuitable packaging: Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, bin liners and used shopping bags.
en Thawing frozen food Depending on the type and application, select one of the following options: ■ at room temperature ■ in the refrigerator in an electric oven, with/without fan assisted hot-air in the microwave ■ ■ ã=Caution Do not refreeze thawing or thawed food. Only ready meals (boiled or fried) may be refrozen. No longer store the frozen produce for the max. storage period. Interior fittings (not all models) Glass shelves Fig.
en Ice cube tray Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full of drinking water and place in the freezer compartment. If the ice tray is stuck to the freezer compartment, loosen with a blunt implement only (spoon-handle). To loosen the ice cubes, twist the ice tray slightly or hold briefly under flowing water. Ice pack (if enclosed, quantity varies) If a power failure or malfunction occurs, the ice packs can be used to slow down the thawing process.
en Defrosting the freezer compartment Cleaning the appliance The freezer compartment does not defrost automatically, otherwise the frozen food would start thawing. A layer of frost in the freezer compartment impairs refrigeration of the frozen food and increases power consumption. Remove the layer of hoarfrost regularly. ã=Caution ã=Caution ■ Do not scrape off hoarfrost or ice with a knife or pointed object. You could damage the refrigerant tubes. Leaking refrigerant may ignite or cause eye injuries.
en Interior fittings All variable parts of the appliance can be taken out for cleaning. Take out glass shelves Fig. 6 To do this, pull out shelf, lift at the front and take out. Taking out extendable glass shelf Fig. 7 Press levers on the underside on both sides, pull forwards glass shelf, lower and swivel out to the side. Condensation channel Fig. , Regularly clean the condensation channel and drainage hole with a cotton bud or similar implement to ensure that the condensation can drain.
en Tips for saving energy ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 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. Select 560 mm cavity depth. A smaller cavity depth will result in a higher energy consumption. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.
