URefrigerator
compartment
Refr i gerat or compar t ment
The refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing
meat, sausages, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready
meals and pastries.
The temperature can be set from
33° F (1° C) to 43° F (6° C).
The refrigerator compartment can also be used to
store highly perishable groceries in the short to
medium term. A temperature of +39°F (+4°C) or
lower ensures optimum freshness and hygiene of
the stored groceries.
Vegetable bin
The vegetable bin is the optimum storage location
for fresh fruit and vegetables. You can adjust the
humidity in the vegetable bin via the division plate's
humidity controller and a special seal.
The humidity in the vegetable bin can be set
according to the type and quantity of products to be
stored:
■Mainly fruit as well as for a large load – set lower
air humidity
■Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed or small
load – set higher air humidity
Notes
■Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana,
papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive
to cold (e.g. eggplant, cucumbers, zucchini,
peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be
stored outside of the appliance at temperatures
of approx. +46°F ... +54°F (+8°C ... +12°C) for
optimum preservation of quality and aroma.
■Condensation may form in the vegetable bin
depending on the type and quantity of products
stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust air
humidity in the vegetable bin with the humidity
controller.
25
en-us Freezer compartment
Cold storage bin
The temperatures in the cold storage bin are lower
than in the refrigerator compartment. Temperatures
below +32 °F (0 °C) may occur.
Ideal for storing fish, meat and sausage. Not suitable
for salads, vegetables and groceries sensitive to
cold.
Note when storing food
■Store fresh undamaged food.
The quality and freshness will then be retained for
longer.
■In the case of convenience products and bottled
goods, do not exceed the minimum sell-by date
or use-by date specified by the manufacturer.
■To retain aroma, color and freshness, pack or
cover food well before placing it into the
appliance.
This will prevent flavors being transferred
between foods and the plastic parts from
becoming discolored.
■Leave warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing them into the refrigerator compartment.
;Ice and water dispenser
Ice and wa t er di spenser
You can use the ice and water dispenser to
dispense:
■cooled water
■crushed ice
■ice cubes
To obtain maximal ice production (up to 12 lb
(5.4 kg) in a 24 hour period):
■The appliance must be installed according to the
installation instructions.
■The freezer compartment must be set to the
coldest temperature.
■The ice cube bin must be emptied every 3 hours.
Results may vary depending on operating conditions
such as:
■door openings
■food load
■ambient temperature and ambient humidity
■water pressure and water filter condition
Before using the appliance for the first
time
WFreezer compartment
Freez er compart ment
The freezer compartment is suitable for:
■storing frozen food
■making ice cubes
■freezing food
The temperature can be set from
6 °F (–14 °C) to –7 °F (–22 °C).
The freezer compartment can be used to store
perishable foods long-term almost without any
noticeable reduction in quality, as the low
temperatures considerably slow down or stop
deterioration. Appearance, flavor and all valuable
ingredients are largely retained.
The time between putting fresh food in the freezer
compartment and it freezing solid depends on the
following factors:
■temperature set
■type of food
■amount of food in the freezer compartment
■quantity and type of storage
9 CAUTION
To avoid water damage to the floor or to the
appliance, never dispense water without a glass
underneath.
Note: The ice and water dispenser only works if the
appliance is connected to a drinking water line and a
filter is installed.
■Once the appliance has been connected or a
new water filter has been installed, there will be
air in the water circuit. Keep dispensing water
until it contains no more bubbles. Wipe splashes
away with a soft cloth.
■For hygiene reasons, dispense water for
5 minutes and discard, and discard the ice cubes
produced during the first 24 hours.
Observing drinking water quality
All materials used in the ice and water dispenser are
odorless and tasteless.
If the water has an aftertaste, this may be due to the
following causes:
■Mineral content and chlorine content of the
drinking water
■Material of the water line leading to the appliance
■Freshness of the drinking water
Note: If you dispense water again after a long
period, it may taste stale. Allow water to dispense
for at least 5 minutes and discard.
26
You will obtain optimum water quality if you dispense
some water regularly.

Operation of the ice and water dispenser
■When the appliance door is open, the ice and
water dispenser stops, and the button lock is
switched on.
■To prevent water damage, the ice and water
dispenser stops automatically after a period of
continuous dispensing. Wait a few seconds

■To prevent ice from falling on the floor, hold the
glass directly under the ice dispenser opening
when dispensing crushed ice.
■When you switch from the crushed button to
the cubed button, a little crushed ice may be
dispensed.
■The dispensed water is cooled to a palatable
temperature. To obtain a colder drinking
temperature, put additional ice cubes in the
glass.
■The water may become warmer when dispensing
large amounts of water.
■If ice cubes taste stale, discard the remainder
and the cubes produced over the next 24 hours.
If ice cubes still taste stale, change the water
filter.
■Regularly check the drip tray and clean as
necessary.
