Disposal notes
The packaging is made of recyclable materials.
- Corrugated board/board
- EPS moulded parts
- Polythene sheets
- Polypropylene straps
Keep packaging materials away from children - polythene
sheets and bags can cause suffocation!
• Please return the packaging to an official collection point. Your old appliance: This contains some reusable
materials and should be disposed of properly - not simply with unsorted household refuse.
Discarded appliances should be disabled: Remove the plug, cut through the connection cable and render the catch unusable so that children cannot become trapped inside.
• Ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged when the appliance that is no longer needed is taken away for disposal.
• Details of the refrigerant can be found on the type plate.
• 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.
Saving energy
- Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation
openings or grille.
- 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 condi­tions, e.g. the ambient temperature.
- Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
- The lower the temperature setting, the higher the power
consumption.
- Store food logically.
- 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.
- 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.

Freezing, storage
Fresh food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as possible. This is provided by the "Superfrost" facility and ensures that the nutritional value, appearance and flavour of the food remains intact. The maximum amount of food wich can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the type plate ("Freezing capac­ity ...kg/24 hours"). This amount varies according to the model and climate rating.
Freezing with Superfrost
• Press the Superfrost button.The Super­frost lamp comes on.
• For small amounts of frozen food 6 hours is sufficient. The maximum amount (see type plate) requires 24 hours.
• Place the fresh food in the freezer. The Superfrost function switches off automatically. Depending on the quantity of food placed in the freezer, this will normally be between 30 and max. 65 hours. The appliance will then switch back to the previously set temperature.
NB: When you press the Superfrost button, the compressor might not switch on for up to 8 minutes. This is due to the inte­grated rise-delay switch which is designed to increase the life span of the refrigeration unit.
Note: To save energy, "Superfrost" can be switched off before the 30 hours have elapsed by pressing the SF button again. Ensure that the temperature is at least -18°C.
You should not switch on the Superfrost function:
- when placing frozen food in the freezer;
- when freezing up to approx. 2 kg fresh food daily.
Notes on freezing and storage
As a guideline for the storage time, the following applies to vari-
ous foodstuffs in the freezer compartment:
Ice cream 2 to 6 months
Sausage, ham 2 to 6 months
Bread, cakes and pastries 2 to 6 months
Game, pork 6 to 10 months
Fish, oily 2 to 6 months
Fish, lean 6 to 12 months
Cheese 2 to 6 months
Poultry, beef 6 to 12 months
Vegetables, fruit 6 to 12 months
• Pack food which you are freezing yourself in quantities appro priate to your household. To ensure that the food freezes right through, the following quantities should not be exeeded per package: fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg, meat: up to 2,5 kg.
• Blanch vegetables after washing and cutting them. (Add to boiling water for 2-3 minutes, remove and quickly cool down in cold water).
• Do not salt or season fresh food or blanched vegetables before freezing. Only lightly salt and season other food. The intensity of flavour of some spices can change.
• Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or reuseable plastic, metal or aluminium containers.
• Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to come into con tact with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry in order to avoid them sticking together.
• Always write the date and contents on the pack and do not exeed the stated storage time for the food.
• Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain carbonated drinks as they might burst.
• Only take out as much food as is immediately required for thawing. Use food which has been thawed in prepared meals as quickly as possible.
Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways:
– in a fan oven – in a microwave oven – at room temperature – in the refrigerator: the cold given off by the frozen food is used
for cooling.
Solid cuts of meat and fish can be cooked when partly thawed. Vegetables can be cooked from frozen (in half the normal time).

Equipment
Info-System
Use frozen food within the recommended period. The numbers between the symbols indicate the storage period in months for different kinds of frozen foods. Storage times given are guide times for food frozen at home. Whether or not the lower or upper value is applicable depends on the food quality and how it was pro-cessed prior to freezing. The lower values always apply to food with a high fat content.

2fish, pork
3vegetables, fruit
4sausages, bread 5mushrooms, game
6poultry, beef/veal
Cold-storage accumulators
The cold-storage accumulators provided prevent the tempera­ture in the freezer from rising too quickly in the event of a power failure, thus preserving the quality of the food. To ensure maximum storage time in the event of a power failure, place the cold-storage accumulators in the top­most freezer drawer on top of the food.
Defrosting
• Switch the appliance off to defrost. Press the ON/OFF button
so that the temperature display goes dark.
• Remove the drawers and glass shelves.
Wrap the frozen food in paper or blankets and store in a cool place.
• To speed up the defrosting process put a saucepan of hot wa­ter on the compartment floor.
Leave the door of the appliance open while defrosting. After
defrosting mop up the remaining water and clean the appliance.
Do not use any mechanical devices or other artificial aids for defrosting other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
Cleaning
Before cleaning always switch off the appliance. Pull out the mains plug or remove/unscrew the fuse.
Clean the inside, equipment parts and outer walls with lukewarm water and a little detergent. Do not use abrasive or acid cleaners or chemical solvents.
Do not use steam cleaners because of the risk of injury and damage.
• Use a commercially available stainless-steel cleaning agent for
stainless-steel appliances.
- In order to achieve best possible protection, apply a stainless-
steel care agent only on the door uniformly in grinding direc-tion
after cleaning.
Points which are darker at the start and a more intensive coloration of the stainless-steel surface are normal.
- Do not use abrasive sponges or scourers, do not use
concentrated cleaning agents and never use cleaning agents containing sand, chloride or acid or chemical solvents, as these would damage the surfaces and could cause corrosion.
- We recommend using a soft cloth and an all-purpose cleaner with a neutral pH value. Only use food safe cleaning materials
inside the appliance.
• Ensure that no cleaning water penetrates into the electrical components or ventilation grille.
• Dry all parts well with a cloth.
• Do not damage or remove the type plate on the inside of the appliance. It is very important for servicing purposes.
Malfunctions
Your appliance is designed and manufactured for a lengthy, reliable operating life with no malfunctions. If a malfunction nonetheless occurs during operation, check whether it is due to an operating error. Please note that even during the war­ranty period the resultant servicing costs in this case will have to be borne by the owner.
You may be able to rectify the following faults by checking the possible causes yourself:
• Appliance does not function:
– Is the appliance switched on? – Is the plug correctly fitted in the mains socket? – Is the socket fuse intact?
• Loud running noise:
– Is the appliance set up firmly on the floor? – Does the appliance cause nearby items of furniture or objects
to vibrate? Please note that noises caused by the refrigerant circuit cannot be avoided.
• The temperature is not low enough:
– Is the temperature setting correct (see "Setting the tempera
ture")?
– Have excessive amounts of fresh food been placed in the
appliance? Observe the temperature display for a further 24 hours.
– Does the separately installed thermometer show the correct
reading? – Is the ventilation system working properly? – Is the appliance set up too close to a heat source?
If none of the above causes apply and you cannot rectify the fault yourself, contact the nearest cus­tomer service department. Please state the appliance designation service number appliance number of the rating plate (see fig.). The type plate is located in the freezer compartment on the left-hand inside wall, next to the top freezer drawer. Keep the door closed if there is a fault. This will stop cold from escaping and the temperature from rising.
