For food with an indicated best before date, the date specified
on the packaging always applies.
5.3.1 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.

5.3.5 Adjusting the temperature in the
BioFresh compartment
The temperature is regulated automatically. At a temperature of
5 °C in the refrigerator compartment, the temperature in the
BioFresh compartment is between 0 °C and 3 °C.
You can adjust the temperature slightly colder or warmer. The
temperature is adjustable from 1 (coldest temperature) to 9
(warmest temperature). The preset value is 5. At 1 to 4, the
temperature can drop below 0 °C and therefore the food may
freeze a little.
The temperature can be changed continuously. Once the value
9 is reached, the selection starts from the beginning again. A
combination of LEDs that corresponds to the value shines in
the temperature display.
To activate the setting mode: Press the SuperFrost button

5.4 Freezer compartment
You can store frozen food, make ice cubes and freeze fresh
food in the freezer compartment.
5.4.1 Freezing food
The rating plate indicates the maximum quantity of fresh food
you can freeze within 24 hours (see Appliance at a glance)
under “Freezing capacity ... kg/24h”.
The maximum load of frozen food for the drawers is 25 kg each
and for the shelves 35 kg each.
5.4.4 SuperFrost
With this function you can freeze fresh food quickly
through to the core. The appliance operates with
maximum refrigeration. The noise of the refrigeration
unit may be temporarily louder as a result.
In addition, frozen food already in storage is given a “cold
reserve”. The food stays frozen longer as a result when you
defrost the appliance.
The maximum amount of fresh food which can be frozen in 24
h is indicated on the type plate under “freezing capacity ... kg/
24h”. This amount varies according to the model and climate
rating.
You have to activate SuperFrost in good time, depending on
how much fresh food is to be frozen: about 6 hours before
placing the food inside in case of small amounts and about 24
hours in advance in case of the maximum amount of food to be
frozen.
Wrap produce and spread it out as far as possible. Do not
allow produce to be frozen to touch produce that is already
frozen to prevent the latter thawing.
You do not have to activate SuperFrost in the following cases:
when placing frozen food in the freezer
-
when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily
-

5.4.7 VarioSpace
Apart from being able to remove the
drawers, you can also remove the
shelves, creating space for large
items of frozen food. Poultry, meat,
large pieces of game and high
bakery products can be frozen in
one piece and prepared.
The maximum load of frozen food
u
for the drawers is 25 kg each and
for the shelves 35 kg each.
The figures indicate the storage time in months for several
types of frozen food in each case. Storage times given are
guide times.
(4) Sausages, bread
5.4.9 Cold storage accumulators*
The cold storage accumulators prevent the temperature from
rising too fast in the event of power failure.
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.
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.
w
Pull out the power plug or switch off the fuse.
u
Place cold storage accumulators on top of the frozen food.
u
If possible, put the frozen goods in the freezer drawer,
u
wrapped in newspaper or a blanket, and store in a cool
place.
Place a pan with hot, not boiling
u
water on a middle shelf.
Defrosting is speeded up.
w
Leave the door of the appliance open while defrosting.
u
Remove detached pieces of ice.
u
If necessary, pick up defrost water several times, using a
u
sponge or cloth.
Clean the appliance (see 6.2) and rub dry.

9 Disposing of the appliance
The appliance contains some reusable materials
and should be disposed of properly - not simply
with unsorted household refuse. Appliances which
are no longer needed must be disposed of in a
professional and appropriate way, in accordance
with the current local regulations and laws.
When disposing of the appliance, ensure that the refrigeration
circuit is not damaged to prevent uncontrolled escape of the
refrigerant it contains (data on type plate) and oil.
