u
(see Appliance at a glance). Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminium and glass
u
containers and cling film for wrapping. Always store liquids and food which is subject to odour or
u
taste transfer in closed containers or cover them. Foods which give off a large amount of ethylene gas and
u
delicate foods, such as fruit, vegetables, salad, should always be stored separately or wrapped so as not to reduce the storage life; e.g. do not store tomatoes together with kiwis or cabbage. Use the front area of the refrigerator compartment floor only
u
for briefly putting down cooled products, e.g. when rear­ranging and sorting. However do not leave cooled products there otherwise they may be pushed back or tipped over when the door is closed. Do not store food too close together to enable good air
u
circulation.

5.5 BioFresh compartment

The BioFresh compartment allows some types of fresh food to be stored up to three times longer than in conventional refriger­ators, without compromising quality.
For food with an indicated best before date, the date specified on the packaging always applies.

5.5.1 DrySafe

The DrySafe is suitable for storing dry or wrapped food (e.g. dairy products, meat, fish, sausages). A relatively dry storage climate is established here.

5.5.2 HydroSafe

The HydroSafe at the moist setting is suited for storing unwrapped salad, vegetables and fruit with high inherent mois­ture. When the drawer is well filled, a dewy climate with up to 90% humidity is established. The humidity in the compartment depends on the moisture content of the food stored and on the opening frequency. You can set the humidity yourself.

5.5.3 Setting the humidity in the HydroSafe

u
Low humidity: move the regulator to
the left.
u
High humidity: move the regu-
lator to the right.

u
Always keep the air slits of the fan free at the rear wall!
u
To store frozen food directly on the shelves: pull the drawer
u
forwards and lift it out.

5.6.9 Cold storage accumulators

Note
The IceMaker produces ice cubes only if the drawer is fully
u
closed.
Producing ice cubes*
The production capacity depends on the freezer temperature. The lower the temperature, the more ice cubes can be produced in a specific period.
The ice cubes drop from the IceMaker into the drawer. When a certain filling level has been reached, no further ice cubes are produced. The IceMaker does not fill the drawer right up to the brim.
If large quantities of ice cubes are needed, the complete IceMaker drawer can be exchanged for the adjacent drawer. When the drawer is closed, the IceMaker automatically re­commences production.
Once the IceMaker has been switched on for the first time, it may take up to 24 hours until the first ice cubes are produced.
Note
When the appliance is used for the first time and if it has been out of use for a long time, particles may collect in the IceMaker and/or water conduit.
Therefore do not use or consume the ice cubes made in the
u
first 24 hours.
Setting the water intake time*
The opening time of the IceMaker valve can be set if, for example, the water pressure in the pipe is too low or too high.
The water intake time can be set in stages from E1 (short intake time) to E8 (long intake time). The intake is preset at E3.
To activate the setting mode: press the SuperFrost button

6.1 Defrosting with NoFrost*

The NoFrost system automatically defrosts the appliance.
Refrigerator compartment:
The defrost water evaporates due to the compressor heat.
Regularly clean the drain opening to allow the water to flow
u
away (see 6.3) .
Freezer compartment:
The moisture condenses on the evaporator, is periodically defrosted and evaporates.
The appliance does not have to be manually defrosted.
u

6.2 Manual defrosting*

The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically. The defrost water evaporates as a result of the heat of the compressor. Drops of water on the rear wall are perfectly normal.
Regularly clean the drain opening to allow the water to flow
u
away (see 6.3) .
A layer of frost or ice can build up in the freezer compartment after a long period of operation.
The layer of frost or ice builds up faster if the appliance is opened often or if the food is warm when placed inside. However, a thick layer of ice will increase the appliance‘s energy consumption. You should therefore defrost the appli­ance regularly.
CAUTION
Risk of injury and damage as a result of hot steam!
Do not use electric heaters or steam cleaners, naked flames
u
or defrosting sprays for defrosting. Do not remove ice using sharp instruments.
u
Switch on SuperFrost one day before defrosting.
u
The frozen goods are provided with a “cold reserve”.
w
Switch off the appliance.
u
The temperature display goes out.
