Tips on storing fresh food
Storing in 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 ow. 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:
Butter, cheese, spices,
etc.
Medicines, nail polish

Storage in 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 2.5Kg
▶ 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 food with these substances (eg. seafood) directly on internal surfaces.
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 be less edible.
▶ Do not load excessive quantities of fresh food in the freezer compartment. Refer to
the freezing capacity of the freezer (see TECHNICAL DATA).
▶ Food can be stored in the freezer at a temperature of at least -18°C for 2 to 12
months, depending on its properties (eg. 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 fridge 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, which may
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.

Positioning your appliance
This appliance should be installed in a room
that is dry and well ventilated.To provide
adequate ventilation,make sure the refrigerator is at least 20mm clear on all sides from
kitchen cabinetry, and 30mm from the back
wall. Any units placed above the appliance
must be clear by 50mm to allow sufficient
ventilation.
If locating the refrigerator close to a corner,
sufficient spacing must be left for opening the
doors and removing the shelves.
This appliance should be at least 100mm from
any electric or gas cooker. If this is not possible, make sure that appropriate insulation is
used (eg insulated wall).
Avoid exposing the appliance to direct
sunlight, and sources of heat (such as radiators, heaters or cookers).
Locating this appliance in a cold environment
(such as a shed, outhouse or garage) may
compromise its performance. A consistent
room temperature of 10°C or above is recommended to ensure optimum performance and
food care.

Aligning 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 100mm 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 lowering of the rear feet facilitates the
door.
Waiting time
Maintenance-free lubrication oil is located in the
capsule of the compressor. This oil may get through
closed pipe system during transportation. 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 is being used.
▶ the power plug and socket are of sound condition.
Connect the plug to a properly installed household socket.
WARNING!
To avoid risks, a damaged power cord must be replaced by customer services (see warranty card).
