4.2 Installing the appliance

Fire hazard due to dampness!
If live parts or the mains lead become damp this may cause
short circuits.

u

CAUTION

Transport the appliance in a packed condition.
Transport the appliance upright.
Do not transport the appliance without assistance.

WARNING

The appliance is designed for use in enclosed areas. Do not
operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is
exposed to splash water or damp conditions.

q

the enclosed wall spacers (see below).
The appliance may be moved only when it is empty.

q

The surface supporting the appliance must be at the same

q

level as the surrounding floor.
Do not install the appliance without assistance.

q

The more coolant there is in the appliance, the larger the

q

room in which the appliance is installed must be. If the room
is too small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of gas
and air. For each 8 g of coolant the installation space must
be at least 1 m3. Information on the coolant is on the model
plate inside the appliance.

Remove the protective film from the outside of the appli-

u

ance.*

NOTICE

Risk of damage from stainless steel care products!
The stainless steel doors and stainless steel side panels
are treated with a premium surface finish.

Stainless steel care products attack these surfaces.

5.5.5 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.*

You can freeze as many kilograms of fresh food within 24 hrs as
is indicated on the type plate under “Freezing capacity ... kg/
24hrs”. This maximum freezing quantity can vary depending on
model and climate class.

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

-

5.5.9 IceMaker*

The IceMaker produces ice cubes using the water container
located in the refrigerator compartment. The water container
can also be used to provide chilled drinking water.

The IceMaker is located in the top drawer of the freezer on the
left-hand side.

Make certain that the following conditions are met:

The appliance is level.

-

The appliance is connected.

-

The freezer compartment is switched on.

-

The water tank was cleaned with water and is filled.

-

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.

Distribute the ice cubes evenly in the drawer to increase the
capacity.

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.

Do not use or consume ice cubes that have been made 24

u

hours after the first ice cubes are made.

Filling the water tank*

The IceMaker is supplied with water from a water tank in the
refrigerator compartment (see 1) .

u

quantities customary for household use and must be oper­ated using water appropriate for this purpose.
If the IceMaker is switched off or not used for a longer period

u

of time, empty the water tank.

NOTICE

Risk of damage to the IceMaker!
Liquids containing sugar, such as soft drinks, fruit juices or
similar, gum up the pump and therefore lead to total pump
failure and, as a consequence, to damage to the IceMaker.

Fill the water tank with cold drinking water only! Do not use

u

liquids containing sugar, such as soft drinks, fruit juices or
similar!

Note

The use of filtered, de-carbonated water ensures the supply of
drinking water with top quality flavour for problem-free ice cube
production.
You can achieve this water quality by using a table-top water
filter available from specialist shops.

Use only filtered, de-carbonated water to fill the water tank.

6.2 Manual defrosting*

Fridge compartment:

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.

* Depending on model and options 21

Maintenance

Regularly clean the drain opening to allow the water to flow

u

away (see 6.5) .

Freezer compartment:

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.

Thawing process:

WARNING

Danger of injury and damage

Do not use any mechanical aids or other means not recom-

u

mended by the manufacturer in order to accelerate the
defrosting process.
Do not use electrical heating or steam cleaning equipment,

u

open flames or defrosting sprays to defrost.
Do not use sharp implements to remove the ice.

u

Do not damage the pipework in the refrigerant circuit.
