en
Setting
the temperature
Turn temperature controller, Fig. "/A, to
the required setting.
When the controller is at a medium
setting, the temperature drops
to approx. +4 °C in the coldest zone.
Fig. #.
Higher settings lower the temperature in
the refrigerator and freezer compartment.
We recommend:
■ Perishable food should not be stored
above +4 °C.
■ Low setting for short-term
storage of food (energy-saving mode).
■ Medium setting for long-term storage
of food.
■ Select a higher setting only
temporarily, when the door is
frequently opened or large quantities
are placed in the refrigerator
compartment.
Refrigeration capacity
The temperature in the refrigerator
compartment may rise temporarily if
large amounts of food or a lot of drinks
are placed inside.
Therefore the temperature controller
should be set to a higher setting for
approx. 7 hours.
Freezer compartment
The temperature in the freezer
compartment depends on
the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment.
Lower temperatures in the refrigerator
compartment also cause lower
temperatures in the freezer
compartment.
Usable capacity
Information on the usable capacity
can be found inside your
appliance on the rating plate.
8
Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for ready meals, cakes
and pastries, preserved food, condensed
milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables
sensitive to cold as well as tropical fruit.
en
■ Warmest zone is at the very top of
the door.
Note
Store e.g. cheese and butter in
the warmest zone. When served,
the cheese will not have lost its flavour
and the butter will be easy to spread.
Note when loading products:
Wrap or cover food before placing in
the appliance. This will retain the aroma,
colour and freshness of the food. In
addition, flavours will not be transferred
between foods and the plastic parts will
not become discoloured.
Note
Avoid contact between food and rear
panel. Otherwise the air circulation will
be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to
the rear panel.
Note the chill zones in
the refrigerator compartment!
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones:
■ Coldest zone is between the arrow
stamped on the side and the glass
shelf situated below. Fig. #
Note
Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausage, meat) in the coldest zones.
Freezer compartment
Use the freezer compartment
■ To store deep-frozen food.
■ To make ice cubes.
■ To freeze food.
Note
Ensure that the freezer compartment
door has been closed properly. If
the door is open, the frozen food will
thaw. The freezer compartment will
become covered in thick ice. Also: waste
of energy due to high power
consumption!
9
en
Max. freezing capacity
Information about the max. freezing
capacity within 24 hours can be found
on the rating plate (see chapter
“Customer service”).
Fully utilising the freezing
capacity

placed in the freezer by removing all
fittings. The food can be stacked directly
on the shelves and in the bottom of
the freezer compartment.
Removing the fittings
Pull out the frozen food container all
the way, lift at the front and remove.
Fig. $
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.
When loading products
Freeze large quantities of food preferably
in the very top compartment where food
freezes particularly quickly and therefore
also gently. Place the food over
the whole area of the compartments
or in the frozen food container. Food
which is already frozen must not come
into contact with the food which is to be
frozen. If required, move the frozen food
to the frozen food container.
10
Storing frozen food
To ensure good air circulation in
the appliance, insert the frozen food
container all the way.
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.
Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and
asparagus do not require blanching.
Literature on freezing and blanching
can be found in bookshops.
Note
Keep food which is to be frozen away
from food which is already frozen.
■ The following foods are suitable for
freezing:
Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood,
meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit,
herbs, eggs without shells, dairy
products such as cheese, butter and
quark, ready meals and leftovers such
as soups, stews, cooked meat and
fish, potato dishes, soufflés and
desserts.
■ The following foods are not suitable
for freezing:
Types of vegetables, which are usually
consumed raw, such as lettuce or
radishes, eggs in shells, grapes,
whole apples, pears and peaches,
hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured
milk, sour cream, crème fraîche and
mayonnaise.
Note
When freezing fresh food, the
refrigeration unit runs for longer. As a
result, the refrigerator compartment
temperature may drop too low. Increase
the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment.
en

Defrosting
Refrigerator compartment
defrosts fully automatically
While the refrigerating unit is running,
beads of condensation or hoarfrost form
at the back of the refrigerator
compartment. This is quite normal. It
is not necessary to wipe off
the condensation or frost. The rear panel
defrosts automatically. The condensation
runs into the condensation channel,
Fig. (, and is conveyed
to the refrigerating unit where
it evaporates.
Note
Keep the condensation channel
and drainage hole clean, so
that the condensation can run out.
Defrosting the freezer
compartment
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.
m 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.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the frozen food and place
temporarily in a cool location.
2. Switch the appliance off.
3. Pull out the mains plug or remove
the fuse.
4. To accelerate the defrosting process,
place a pan of hot water on a trivet in
the freezer compartment. Fig. )
5. Wipe up condensation with a cloth
or sponge.
6. Wipe dry the freezer compartment.
7. Switch the appliance on again.
8. Put the frozen food back in the freezer
compartment.
