1.5 Saving energy

Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation
-
openings or grille. Always keep fan louvres clear.
-
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.
-
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.

If the stainless steel side walls are dirty, clean them using a commercially available stainless steel cleaning agent. Then evenly apply the accompanying stainless steel care product, making strokes in the direction of the grain. Wipe side walls with a paint finish using a soft, clean cloth only. In case of stubborn dirt, use a little water or a neutral cleaning agent. A microfibre cloth can be optionally used.

6 Maintenance

6.1 Defrosting with NoFrost

The NoFrost system automatically defrosts the appliance.
Refrigerator compartment:
The defrost water evaporates due to the compressor heat. 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) .
Do not apply stainless steel cleaning agent to glass or plastic surfaces to prevent them from being scratched. Darker areas at the beginning and quite an intensive colour of the stainless steel surface are normal.*
To clean the drain opening: remove
u
any deposits with a fine instrument, e.g. a cotton bud.
Items of equipment:

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
SuperFrost is activated.
The compressor runs for longer in order to rapidly cool the
u
food. This is normal.
The inverter regularly flashes 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 the Super-
Frost, function is activated, 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 standing firmly on the floor. As a result,
adjoining units or objects are set into vibration by the running refrigeration unit.
Move the appliance away a little and align it using the
u
adjustable feet. Move bottles and containers apart.
u
The SuperFrost button flashes together with the tempera­ture display.
There is a fault.
Contact the customer service. (see Maintenance).
u
The temperature is not cold enough.
The door of the appliance is not properly closed.
Close the door of the appliance.
