m IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
WARNING
When using this appliance, always
exercise basic safety precautions,
including the following:
1. Use this appliance only for its
intended purpose as described
in this Owner's Manual.
2. This refrigerator must be
properly installed in accordance
with the Installation Instructions
before it is used.
3. Do not allow children to climb,
stand or hang on the shelves in
the refrigerator. They could
seriously injure themselves and
damage the refrigerator.
4. After your refrigerator is in
operation, do not touch the cold
surfaces in the refrigerator
compartment, particularly when
hands are damp or wet. Skin
may adhere to these extremely
cold surfaces.
5. Do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or
any other appliance.
6. In freezers with an automatic
icemaker, avoid contact with the
moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating
element located on the bottom
of the icemaker. Do not place
fingers or hands on the
automatic icemaking
mechanism while the freezer is
plugged in.
7. Unplug your refrigerator before
cleaning and making repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend
that any servicing be performed
by a qualified individual.
8. Before replacing a burned-out
light bulb, pull out the main plug
or switch of the fuse to turn off
the lights in order to avoid
contact with a live wire filament.
9. A burned-out light bulb may
break when being replaced.
NOTE: Setting the refrigerator
temperature controls to OFF
does not remove power to the
light circuit.
10. Do not refreeze frozen foods
which have thawed completely.
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation
are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigeration
products are still dangerous... even
if they will sit for “just a few days“.
If you are getting rid of your old
appliance, please follow these
instructions to help prevent
accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old
Refrigeration Product:
– Take off the doors.
– Leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb
inside.
Electrical Connection
The appliance comes with an UL
listed, 3-wire power supply cord.
The appliance requires a 3-wire
receptacle.
The receptacle must be installed by
a licensed electrician only.
Grounding instruction
This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance
for the electric current.
Improper connection of the
equipment grounding conductor
may result in electric shock. Have
the appliance checked by a qualified
electrician or service technician if
you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance has been properly
grounded.
Some local regulations may require
a separate ground. In such cases,
the required accessory ground wire,
clamp and screw must be
purchased separately.
Never ground the appliance to
plastic plumbing lines, gas lines or
water pipes.

CFC DISPOSAL
Your old refrigerator may have
a cooling system that used CFC's
(chlorofluorocarbons).
CFC's are believed to harm
stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away an old
refrigeration product, make sure the
CFC refrigerant is removed for
proper disposal by a qualified
servicer. If you intentionally release
this CFC refrigerant, you can be
subject to fines and imprisonment
under provisions of environmental
legislation.
IMPORTANT
Save these instructions for local
inspector's use. Observe all
governing codes and ordinances.

Ensure that the freezer
compartment door is always
closed. If the door is open,
the frozen food will thaw.
The freezer compartment will
become covered in thick ice.
Also: Energy will be lost due to
high power consumption.
When the freezer compartment
door is closed, a low pressure
occurs, causing a sucking
noise. Wait two to three
minutes until the low pressure
has adjusted itself.

Freezer calendar
The figures next to the symbols
indicate the permitted storage
period of the produce in months.
When purchasing frozen produce,
observe the date of manufacture or
sell-by date.
Ice block
If a power failure or malfunction
occurs, the ice blocks can be used
to slow down the thawing process.
The longest storage time is obtained
by placing the ice block directly on
the food in the top compartment.
The ice blocks can also be used to
cool food temporarily, e.g. in a cold
bag.
Freezing food
Freeze fresh, 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.
How to wrap food correctly:
Place the food in the wrapping.
Press out all the air.
Seal the wrapping.
Label the wrapping with the
contents and date.
The following products are not
suitable for wrapping food:
Wrapping paper, greaseproof
paper, cellophane, refuse bags and
used shopping bags.
The following products are
suitable for wrapping food:
Plastic film, polyethylene blown film,
aluminium foil and freezer tins.
These products can be purchased
from your dealer.
The following products are
suitable for sealing the wrapped
food:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, string,
cold-resistant adhesive tape or
similar.
Bags and polyethylene blown film
can be sealed with a film sealer.
Storage duration of the
frozen food
Storage duration depends on the
type of food. At a temperature
setting of 0 °F (–18 °C):
– 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
19
Purchasing and
storing deepfrozen food
When purchasing deep-frozen food,
comply with the following:
– Check that the packaging is not
damaged.
– Check the sell-by date.
– The temperature of the
supermarket freezer should be
0°F(–18°C) or lower.
If not, the storage life of the food
is reduced.
– Purchase deep-frozen food last.
Wrap in newspaper or place in
a cold bag and take home.
– At home immediately place deep-
frozen food in the freezer
compartment. Use the deep-
frozen food before the sell-by
date runs out.
– Do not refreeze thawed food.
Exception: If you use the food to
make a ready meal (boiling or
frying), you can refreeze this
ready meal.
Thawing frozen
food
m
Do NOT refreeze food which is
beginning to thaw or which has
already thawed. Food cannot be
refrozen until it has been prepared
(boiled or fried).
No longer store the frozen
produce for the max. storage
period.
Depending on the type of food and
intended use, frozen produce can
be thawed as follows:
– at room temperature,
– in the refrigerator,
CAUTION
m
– in an electric oven with/without
hot-air fan,
– in the microwave.
Ice and water
dispenser
Remove where necessary:
– cooled water,
– crushed ice,
–ice cubes.
m
To avoid risk of injury, never reach
into the ice cube dispenser
opening!
WARNING
NOTICE
Do not place bottles or food in the
cube container in order to cool
them quickly. The ice maker may
block and be damaged.
Using the ice and water
dispenser
The ice and water dispenser only
works when the appliance is
connected to the water mains.
When the appliance has been
switched on, it takes approx.
24 hours until the first batch of
ice cubes are ready.
When the appliance has been
connected, there are still air bubbles
in the lines.
Run off drinking water and pour
away until water can be dispensed
without bubbles. Pour away the first
5 glasses.
When using the ice maker for
the first time, do not use the first
30–40 ice cubes for reasons of
hygiene.
m
Operating the ice
maker
When the freezer compartment has
reached its freezing temperature,
water flows into the ice maker and
freezes into ice cubes. When the ice
cubes are ready, they are
automatically discharged into the ice
cube container.
Occasionally the sides of the ice
cubes stick together. When they are
conveyed to the outlet opening, they
usually break away from each other.
When the ice cube container is full,
ice making switches off
automatically.
The ice maker can make approx.
170 ice cubes within 24 hours.
When ice cubes are being made,
the buzzing water valve, the water
flowing into the ice cube tray and the
falling ice cubes can be heard.
Observing drinking
water quality
All materials used in the drinks
dispenser are odourless and
tasteless.
If the water has an aftertaste, this
may be caused by:
– Mineral and chlorine content of
the drinking water.
– Material of the domestic water
line or connection line.
– Freshness of the drinking water.
If water has not been dispensed
for a long time, the water may
have a “stale” taste. In this case
dispense approx. 15 glasses of
water and pour away
Taste and odour of the water may be
improved by installing the enclosed
water filter in the water supply.
m
The enclosed water filter will filter
only particles out of the supply
water, not bacteria or microbes.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
Bosch Fridge-freezer
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies
to:
The limited warranty provided BSH Home
Appliances in this Statement of Limited Product
Warranty applies only to the Bosch Fridgefreezer (“Product”) sold to you, the first using
purchaser, provided that the Product was
purchased: (1) for your normal, household (noncommercial) use, and has in fact at all times only
been used for normal household purposes;
(2) new at retail (not a display, “as is”, or
previously returned model), and not for resale,
or commercial use; and (3) within the United
States or Canada, and has at all times remained
within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply only to the
first purchaser of the Product and are not
transferable.
z Please make sure to return your registration
card; while not necessary to effectuate
warranty coverage, it is the best way for
Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a
safety notice or product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts:
warrants that the Product is free from defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of three
hundred sixty-five days (365) days from the date
of purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to
run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be
stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any
reason whatsoever.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy:
During this warranty period, Bosch or one of its
authorized service providers will repair your
Product without charge to you (subject to
certain limitations stated herein) if your Product
proves to have been manufactured with
a defect in materials or workmanship.
If a reasonable number of attempts to repair the
Product have been made without success, then
Bosch will replace your Product (upgraded
models may be available to you, in Bosch’s sole
discretion, for an additional charge).
All removed parts and components shall
become the property of Bosch at its sole option.
All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume
the identity of the original part for purposes of

servicer; Bosch will have no responsibility or
liability for repairs or work performed by a nonauthorized servicer. If you choose to have
someone other than an authorized service
provider work on your Product, THIS

and who possess, in Bosch’s opinion,
a superior reputation for customer service and
technical ability (note that they are independent
entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or
Bosch
representatives of Bosch). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Bosch will not incur any liability, or
have responsibility, for the Product if it is located
in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an
authorized service provider) or is reasonably
inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or
treacherous locale, surroundings, or
environment; in any such event, if you request,
Bosch would still pay for labor and parts and
ship the parts to the nearest authorized service
provider, but you would still be fully liable and
responsible for any travel time or other special
charges by the service company, assuming
they agree to make the service call.
