➤ Switch the refrigerator on by turning the temperature control (fig. 1 10 page 3)
away from the “0” position.
✓ After switching on, the refrigerator requires approx. 180 seconds until the com-
pressor starts up.
• Never put any items back in the freezer compartment which have
started defrosting or have been defrosted; consume them as soon as
possible.
• Make sure that you only put items in the refrigerator which may be
kept at the selected temperature.
NOTICE!
Ensure that food or liquids in glass containers are not excessively
refrigerated.
Liquids expand when they freeze and can therefore destroy glass
containers.
Setting the temperature
You can set the temperature to any level using the temperature control (fig. 1 10,
page 3). The built-in thermostat regulates the temperature as follows:
• 1 = lowest cooling capacity
• 5 = highest cooling capacity
Generally, a setting in the middle is the most suitable.

8.5 Defrosting the refrigerator
NOTE
I
Humidity can cause frost to form in the interior of the refrigerator or on the vaporiser.
This reduces the cooling capacity. The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically while the compressor is not running.
A slight layer of frost or water droplets could form in the interior of the refrigerator if
it has been cooling for longer periods. This is normal because the moisture in the air
condenses to water when the temperature in the refrigerator drops. The refrigerator
is not defective.
The condensate drains away through a trough into a special container at the back of
the unit via the compressor, where it evaporates.
➤ Wipe the insides of the refrigerator with a dry cloth as required.
If the layer of frost is thicker than 3 mm, you should defrost the freezer compartment.
In high ambient temperatures, the refrigerator may operate
continuously, which can lead to excessive formation of frost on the rear
wall of the refrigerator compartment. If this is the case, turn the temperature control (fig. 1 10, page 3) down to a lower level (“1” or “2”).

➤ Disconnect the power supply.
➤ Leave the ice to defrost.
➤ Once the ice has melted completely, clean the refrigerator (see chapter “Clean-
ing and maintenance” on page 30).
➤ Reconnect the refrigerator to the power.
➤ Run the refrigerator for approx. three hours at level “5”.
➤ Place the goods for cooling in the refrigerator.
➤ Set the temperature control to the desired level.
Never use hard or sharp tools to remove ice or to free objects frozen
onto the device.
This can damage the refrigerator.
8.6 Switching off and storing the refrigerator
