Temperature setting buttons
The temperature is adjusted using the “C“ and “E“ buttons. These buttons are
connected to the temperature display.
• The temperature display is switched over from the display of the ACTUAL
temperature (Temperature display is illuminated) to the display of the DESIRED temperature (Temperature display flashes) by pressing one of the two
buttons, “C“ or “E“.
• Each time one of the two buttons is pressed again the DESIRED temperature is adjusted by 1 °C. The DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24
hours.
If neither button is pressed, the temperature display automatically switches
back after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) to the display of the ACTUAL temperature.
DESIRED temperature means:
The temperature that has been selected for inside the fridge. The DESIRED
temperature is indicated by flashing numbers.
ACTUAL temperature means:
The temperature display indicates the current temperature inside the fridge.
The ACTUAL temperature is indicated with illuminated numbers.
Temperature display
The temperature display can indicate several pieces of information.
8
• During normal operation, the temperature currently present in the fridge
(ACTUAL temperature) is displayed.
• When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates the
fridge temperature currently set (DESIRED temperature).
Starting Up - Setting the Temperature
1. Plug the mains plug into the mains socket.
2. Press ON/OFF button. The green mains pilot indicator illuminates. The
appliances start.
3. Press either the “C“ or “E“ button. The temperature display switches over and
the DESIRED temperature currently set flashes on the temperature display.
4. Set the required temperature by pressing the “C“ or “E“ buttons (see section
"Temperature setting buttons"). The temperature display will immediately
show the changed setting. Each time the button is pressed the temperature is adjusted by 1 °C.
From a food safety point of view +5 °C should be considered sufficiently
cold for storing food in the fridge.
5. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5
sec.) the temperature display will change and again indicate the current
ACTUAL temperature inside the fridge. The display will change from flashing
to continuous illumination.
Information! When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start
immediately if automatic defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage temperature within the fridge is reached quickly you can store food
immediately after switching on.
COOLMATIC
The COOLMATIC function is suited for quick cooling of large quantities of
goods in the refrigerator.
1. The COOLMATIC function is switched on by pressing the COOLMATIC button. The yellow light illuminates.
The COOLMATIC function now provides for intensive cooling. A DESIRED
temperature of +2 °C is automatically selected. The COOLMATIC function is
ended automatically after a period of 6 hours.
2. The COOLMATIC function can be ended manually at any time by pressing
the COOLMATIC button again. The yellow light goes out.
Holiday function
The holiday function sets the temperature at +15°C. This function allows
you to keep the refrigerator shut and empty during a long holiday period
(e.g. the summer holidays) without the formation of a bad smell.

Interior Accessories
Storage Shelves
The glass shelf above the fruit and
vegetable compartment should
always remain in position, to ensure
fruit and vegetables stay fresh longer.
The remaining storage shelves can be
adjusted to various heights:
Pull the storage shelf forward until it
can be tipped up or down and removed.
To insert at a different height use the same procedure in reverse.
Adjustment for tall goods:

at a different level. Space is thus gained for storage of tall goods on the
underlying storage shelf.
Variable Inner Door
The door compartments can be pulled up and removed, and inserted at
other positions as needed.
Variable Storage Box
Some models are equipped with a variable storage box which is fitted under
a door shelf compartment and can be slid sideways.
The box can be inserted under any door shelf compartment.
1. To change the position of the storage box; lift the shelf compartment
with the box upwards and out of the
holders in the door and remove the
retaining bracket out of the guide
under the shelf compartment.
