Water filter Note:
After installing a new water filter, for hygiene reasons discard the ice cubes produced within the first 24 hours or dispense water for 5 minutes and discard.
The water filter supplied filters particles and the taste of chlorine out of the water, not bacteria or microbes:
Replace the water filter every 6 months or as
frequently as needed.
You can also use the appliance without an internal water filter if you use an external water filter system. To do this, replace the water filter with a bypass filter:
The bypass filter filters coarse particles from the
drinking water and can be cleaned as required.
The bypass filter can remain in the appliance
permanently and does not need to be changed.
Switch off the change filter alarm every 6 months.

compartment
Refr i ger at 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) ... 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.
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.
TCool-fresh compartment
Coo l - f r e s h compar t ment
With cool-fresh storage, you can keep fresh foodstuff fresh for up to three times longer than in the refrigerator compartment – for even longer freshness and nutrient retention, and consistent flavor.
You can select pre-defined storage settings directly using the cool-fresh compartment controls or adjust the humidity and temperature from 29 °F (–2 °C) ... 40 °F (4 °C) with the Home Connect app.
Cool-fresh bin
The storage climate in the cool-fresh bin offers ideal conditions for storing fish, meat and sausage, as well as fruit and vegetables.
Notes
Store food no higher than the bin rim to avoid
detaching the lid of the cool-fresh bin.
Never store fruit and vegetables in a cool-fresh
bin with meat or fish.
Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana,
papaya and citrus fruit), and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. eggplants, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored outside the refrigerator at temperatures of approx. 46 °F (8 °C) ... 54 °F (12 °C) for optimal preservation of quality and flavor.
Condensation may form in the cool-fresh bin
depending on the type and quantity of food stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the humidity in the cool-fresh bin with the controls for cool-fresh compartment.
Storage recommendations
Set the pre-defined storage settings depending on what and how much you are storing.

making ice cubes
freezing food
The temperature can be set from 6 °F (–14 °C) ... –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
Observing drinking water quality
All materials used in the 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
Notes
If you dispense water again after a long time, it
may taste stale. Allow water to dispense for 5 minutes and discard.
You will obtain optimum water quality if you
dispense some water regularly.
Dispensing water
9 CAUTION
To avoid water damage to the floor or to the appliance, never dispense water without a glass underneath.
VWater dispenser
You can dispense cold water using the water dispenser.
Note: The water dispenser will only work when the
appliance is connected to a drinking water supply and a filter is installed.
Before using the appliance for the first time
Once the refrigerator 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 dry with a soft cloth.
For hygiene reasons, dispense water for
5 minutes and discard.
Notes
To avoid water damage, the function
automatically stops after 30 seconds of continuous water dispensing.If you want to dispense more water, wait 5 seconds.
You can dispense water up to five times in
succession, after which the function stops automatically.If you want to dispense more water, wait 2 minutes.
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.
1. Hold the glass under the water dispenser.
2. Push the glass upwards against the dispenser
lever or press è button until the glass contains the amount of water required.

9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY! Never reach under or into the ice maker.
Notes
Once ready, ice cubes are automatically
discharged into the ice cube bin.
Ice cube production stops automatically when the
maximum filling level of the ice cube bin is reached.
You can accelerate ice cube production by
setting a colder freezer compartment temperature or switching on super freezing. This will slightly increase energy consumption.
If ice cubes taste stale, discard the rest and the
cubes produced over the next 24 hours. If ice cubes still taste stale, change the water filter.
9 CAUTION
Damage to the appliance! Never store bottles or food in the ice cube bin
when ice cube production is switched on. This may block and damage the ice maker.
