1.6 Saving energy

General safety information
Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
-
stove, heater or similar object. The energy consumption depends on the installation condi-
-
tions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.2) . Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
-
The lower the temperature setting, the higher the power
-
consumption. Store food logically. (see Appliance at a glance).
-
Ensure that all food is well packed and covered for storage.
-
This will prevent frost from forming. Remove food as needed in order that it does not warm too
-
much. First cool warm food to room temperature before storing it .
-
Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator.
-
If there is a thick layer of frost in the appliance: defrost the
-
appliance. Accumulated dust increases the energy consumption:
Once a year, dust the refrigerating unit
-
together with the metal grille of the heat
exchanger at the back of the appliance.

5.1 Refrigerator compartment

The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator compartment results in zones differing in temperature. It is coldest directly above the vegetable drawers and at the rear wall. It is warmest at the top front of the compartment and in the door.

5.1.1 Food refrigeration

Store perishable food such as ready-to-serve dishes, meat
u
products and sausages in the coldest zone. Place butter and preserves in the upper area and in the door (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. Do not store food too close together to enable good air
u
circulation. To safeguard bottles from tipping over: move the bottle
u
holder.

5.1.2 Setting the temperature

The temperature can be set between 1 (warmest temperature, minimum cooling performance) and 7 (coldest temperature, maximum cooling performance).
The middle control setting is recommended, then a middle temperature of approx.5 °C is established in the refrigerator compartment.
To ensure ideal temperatures for storing frozen foods, a setting of "4" to "7" on the temperature controller is recommended. Selecting "7" makes it possible to achieve temperatures under 0 °C in the coldest part of the fridge compartment.
An average temperature of approx. –18 °C is then established in the freezer compartment
Turn the temperature control
u
The temperature depends on the following factors:
- the door opening frequency
- the room temperature at the site where the appliance is installed
- the type, temperature and quantity of frozen food Adjust the temperature as needed, using the control.

6 Maintenance

6.1 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 6.2) .
A layer of frost or ice can build up in the freezer compartment after a long period of operation.
8
Maintenance
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.
Risk of injury and damage as a result of hot steam!

7 Malfunction

Your appliance is designed and manufactured for a long life span and reliable operation. If a malfunction nonetheless occurs during operation, check whether it is due to a handling error. In this case you will have to be charged for the costs incurred, even during the warranty period. You may be able to rectify the following faults yourself:
Appliance does not work.
The appliance is not switched on.
Switch on the appliance.
u
The power plug is not properly inserted in the wall socket.
Check power plug.
u
The fuse of the wall socket is not in order.
Check fuse.
u
The compressor runs for a long time.
The compressor switches to a low speed when little cold is
needed. Although the running time is increased as a result, energy is saved. This is normal in energy-saving models.
u
A LED on the bottom rear of the appliance (at the compressor) flashes regularly every 15 seconds*.
The inverter is equipped with a diagnostic LED.
The flashing is normal.
u
Excessive noise.
Speed-controlled* compressors may produce varying
running noise due to different speed steps. The sound is normal.
u
A bubbling and gurgling noise.
This noise comes from the refrigerant flowing in the refriger-
ation circuit. The sound is normal.
u
A quiet clicking noise.
The noise is produced whenever the refrigeration unit
(motor) automatically switches on or off. The sound is normal.
u
A hum. It is briefly a little louder when the refrigeration unit (the motor) switches on.
The refrigeration increases automatically when fresh food
has just been placed in the appliance or the door has been left open for a while. The sound is normal.
u
The ambient temperature is too high.
Solution: (see 1.2)
u
Vibratory noise.
The appliance is not fixed to the ground. The running of the
cooling unit therefore makes objects and adjacent furniture vibrate.
Adjust appliance via the height-adjustable feet.
u
Move bottles and containers apart.
u
The outside surfaces of the appliance are warm.
The heat of the refrigeration circuit is used to prevent
