Technical safety
Fire hazard
The tubes of the
refrigeration circuit convey a
small quantity of an
environmentally friendly but
flammable refrigerant (R600a). It
does not damage the ozone
layer and does not increase the
greenhouse effect. If refrigerant
escapes, it may injure your eyes
or ignite.
en
If damage has occurred
■ Keep naked flames and/or
ignition sources away from the
appliance,
■ thoroughly ventilate the room
for several minutes,
■ switch off the appliance and
pull out the mains plug,
■ inform customer service.
The more refrigerant an
appliance contains, the larger
the room must be in which the
appliance is situated. Leaking
refrigerant can form a
flammable gas-air mixture in
rooms which are too small.
The room must be at least 1 m³
per 8 g of refrigerant. The
amount of refrigerant in your
appliance is indicated on the
rating plate inside the appliance.
When installing the appliance,
ensure that the mains cable is
not trapped or damaged.
If the power cord of this
appliance is damaged, it must

Operating tips
■ While the refrigeration unit is running,
water droplets or a thin layer of ice
may form at the rear panel of
the refrigerator. This is nothing
unusual. It is not necessary to scrape
off the frost or wipe off the water
droplets. The rear panel defrosts
automatically. The condensation
collects in the condensation channel
and is carried to the refrigeration unit
where it evaporates.
■ If the air humidity is high,
condensation may form
in the refrigerator compartment,
especially on the glass shelves. If this
is the case, pack or wrap the food
and select a lower temperature
in the refrigerator compartment.
Setting
the temperature
Fig. "
The temperature can be set from +2 °C
to +8 °C.
Keep pressing temperature setting
button 4 until the required refrigerator
compartment temperature is set.
The value last selected is saved. The set
temperature is indicated on the
temperature display 2.
Usable capacity
Information on the usable capacity can
be found inside your appliance on
the rating plate. Fig. /
Refrigerator
compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal
storage location for meat, sausage, fish,
dairy products, eggs, ready meals
and pastries.
Storing food
■ Store fresh, undamaged food. The
quality and freshness will then
be retained for longer.
■ In the case of ready-made products
and bottled goods, observe the bestbefore date or use-by date specified
by the manufacturer.
■ To retain aroma, colour
and freshness, pack or cover food
well before placing in the appliance.
This will prevent the transfer
of flavours and the discolouration
of plastic parts in the refrigerator
compartment.
■ Allow warm food and drinks to cool
down before placing in the appliance.
Note
Avoid contact between food and rear
panel. Otherwise the air circulation will
be impaired.
Food or packaging could freeze to
the rear panel.
10
Page 11
en
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 zone.
■ Warmest zone is at the very top
of the door and in the vegetable
container.
Note
Store at the very top of the door e.g.
hard cheese and butter. Cheese can
then continue to release its flavour
and the butter will still be easy to
spread.
Vegetable container with
humidity controller
Fig. &
To create the optimum storage climate
for fruit and vegetables, you can set the
air humidity in the vegetable container
depending on the quantity stored:
■ smaller quantities of fruit and
vegetables – high air humidity
■ large quantities of fruit and vegetables
– low air humidity
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.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth
and adjust air humidity in the
vegetable container with the humidity
controller.
Super cooling
Super cooling sets the refrigerator
temperature to the coldest temperature
setting for approx. 15 hours. Then
the appliance automatically switches
to the temperature set prior to super
cooling mode.
Switch on super cooling mode, e.g.
■ before placing large quantities of food
in the refrigerator compartment.
■ for the fast cooling of drinks.
Note
When super cooling is switched on,
increased operating noises may occur.
