Tips on storing fresh food
Storing into the refrigerator compartment
▶ Keep your fridge temperature below 5°C.
▶ Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the appliance.
▶ Foods stored in the refrigerator should be washed and dried before storing
▶ Food to be stored should be properly sealed to avoid odour or taste alterations.
▶ Do not store excessive quantities of food. Leave spaces between foods to allow cold
air owing around them, for a better and more homogeneous cooling.
▶ Foods eaten daily should be stored at the front of the shelf.
▶ Leave a gap between foods and the inner walls, allowing air owing. In special way
don’t store foods against the rear wall: foods could freeze against rear wall. Avoid direct contact of food (especially oily or acidic food) with the inner liner, as oil/acid can
erode the inner liner. Clean away oily/acid dirt whenever it is found.
▶ Defreeze frozen food in the fridge storage compartment. This way, you can use the
frozen food to decrease the temperature in the compartment and save energy.
▶ The ageing process of fruit and vegetables such as courgettes, melons, papaya, ba-
nana, pineapple, etc. can be accelerated in the refrigerator. Therefore, it is not advisable to store them in the refrigerator. However, the ripening of strongly green fruits
can be promoted for a certain period. Onions, garlic, ginger and other root vegetables should also be stored at room temperature.
▶ Unpleasant odours inside the fridge are a sign that something has spilled and clean-
ing is required. See CARE AND CLEANING.
▶ Dierent foods should be placed in dierent areas according to their properties:
Food Location
Butter, cheese Upper door rack
Eggs Door rack
Fruit, vegetables, salad
Meat, sausage, cheese, milk
Dairy products, canned
food, cans
Drinks, bottles, tubes Door rack
Fresh meat, fresh sh, sau-
sages, cooked foods
Fruit- and vegetable box or My Zone box (2°C ~ 5°C)
Lower area (lowest shelf / coverage above the fruitand vegetable box)
Upper area or door rack
My Zone box (-2°C ~ 2°C)
Storage into the freezer compartment
▶ Keep the freezer temperature at- 18°C.
▶ 24 hours before freezing switch on the Super-freeze function; -for small quantities
of food 4-6 hours are sucient.
▶ Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the freezer com-
partment.
▶ Food cut into small portions will freeze faster and be easier to defrost and cook. The
recommended weight for each portion is less than 2.5 kg
▶ It is better to pack food before putting it into the freezer. The outside of the pack-
aging must be dry to avoid bags sticking together. Packaging materials should be
odour-free, airtight, non-poisonous and nontoxic.
▶ In order to avoid expiration of storage periods, please note the freezing date, time
limit and name of the food on the packaging according to the storage periods of different foods.
▶ WARNING!: Acid, alkali and salt etc. could erode the internal surface of the freezer.
Do not place the food having these substances (e.g. sea sh) directly on the internal
surface. Salt water in the freezer should be cleaned up immediately.
▶ Do not exceed the food storage times recommended by the manufacturers. Only
take the required amount of food out of the freezer.
▶ Consume defrosted food quickly. Defrosted food cannot be re-frozen unless it is
rst cooked, otherwise it may bless edible.
▶ Do not load excessive quantities of fresh food in the freezer compartment. Refer
to the freezing capacity of the freezer – See TECHNICAL DATA or data at the type
plate.
▶ Food can be stored in the freezer at a temperature of at least -18°C for 2 to 12
months, depending on its properties (e.g., meat: 3-12 months, vegetables: 6-12
months)
▶ When freezing fresh food, avoid bringing it in contact with already frozen food. Risk
of thawing!
▶ Defreeze frozen food in the fridge. This way, you can use the frozen food to decrease
the temperature in the compartment and save energy.
When storing commercially frozen foods, please follow these guidelines:
▶ Always follow manufacturers’ guidelines for the length of time you should store food
for. Do not exceed these guidelines!
▶ Try to keep the length of time between purchase and storage as short as possible to
preserve food quality.
▶ Buy frozen foods, which have been stored at a temperature of –18 °C or below.
▶ Avoid buying food which has ice or frost on the packaging – This indicates that the
products might have been partially defrosted and refrozen at some point – temper-
ature rises aect the quality of food.

Power interruption
In the event of a power cut, food should remain safely cold for about 16 hours. Follow these
tips during a prolonged power interruption, especially in summer:
▶ Open the door/drawer as few times as possible.
▶ Do not put additional food into the appliance during a power interruption.
▶ If prior notice of a power interruption is given and the interruption duration is longer
than 16 hours, make some ice and put it in a container in the top of the refrigerator
compartment.
▶ An inspection of the goods is required immediately after the interruption.
▶ As temperature in the refrigerator will rise during a power interruption or other fail-
ure, the storage period and edible quality of food will be reduced. Any food that de-
frosts should be either consumed, or cooked and refrozen (where suitable) soon
afterwards in order to prevent health risks.
Unpacking
WARNING!
▶ The appliance is heavy. Always handle with at least two persons.
▶ Keep all packaging materials out of children´s reach and dispose them in an environ-
mentally friendly manner.
▶ Take the appliance out of the packaging.
▶ Remove all packaging materials.
Environmental conditions
The room temperature should always be between 10° C and 43° C, since it can inuence
the temperature inside the appliance and its energy consumption. Do not install the appliance near other heat-emitting appliances (ovens, refrigerators) without isolation.
Door reversibility
Before the appliance is permanently installed, check the correct position of the door
hinge. If necessary see section the DOOR REVERSIBILITY.

Aigning the appliance
The appliance should be placed on a at and solid surface.
1. Tilt the appliance slightly backwards.
2. Set the feet to the desired level.
Make sure the distance to the wall on the hinge side is
at least 100 mm for the door to open properly.
3. The stability can be checked by alternately bumping on the diagonals. The slightly swaying should
be the same in both directions. Otherwise the
frame can warp; possible leaking door seals are
the result. A low tendency to the rear facilitates
the closing of the door.
Waiting time
To the maintenance-free lubrication oil is located in the
capsule of the compressor. This oil can get through
the closed pipe system during slanting transport. Before connecting the appliance to the power supply you
have to wait 2 hours so that the oil runs back into the
capsule.
Electrical connection
Before each connection check if:
▶ power supply, socket and fusing are appropriate to the rating plate.
▶ the power socket is earthed and no multi-plug or extension.
▶ the power plug and socket are strictly according.
Connect the plug to a properly installed household socket.
WARNING!
To avoid risks a damaged power cord must be replaced by the customer service (see
warranty card).
Door Reversibility
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply you should check, whether the door
swing must changed from right (as delivered) to left, if this is required by the installation
location and the usability.
