Control

5.2 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.

5.2.1 Food refrigeration

Note*
The energy consumption increases and the cooling perform­ance decreases if the ventilation is inadequate.
Always keep the air slits of the fan free.
u
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. Use the front area of the refrigerator compartment floor only
u
for briefly putting down cooled products, e.g. when rear­ranging and sorting. However do not leave cooled products there otherwise they may be pushed back or tipped over when the door is closed. Do not store food too close together to enable good air
u
circulation. To safeguard bottles from tipping over: move the bottle
u
holder.

5.2.2 Setting the temperature

The temperature can be set between the first point (warmest temperature, lowest refrigerating capacity) and max. (coldest temperature, highest refrigerating capacity).
The recommended temperature is 5 °C i.e. a medium control setting.
The freezer then sets itself to an average temperature of approx.–18 °C
Turn thetemperature control
u
temperature wanted shines in the temperature display.
The temperature can be set slightly colder within a temperature range, e.g. 5 °C to 7 °C, or between two points of the control.
If required, slowly turn the temperature control further.
u
The lit bar of the temperature range e.g. 5 °C to 7 °C flashes
w
briefly. The temperature within the temperature range was set colder.
The temperature is dependent on the following factors:
- the frequency of door opening
- the room temperature of the installation site
- the type, temperature and quantity of frozen food In case of need, adjust the temperature with the control.

- Fruit, vegetables up to 1 kg
- Meat up to 2.5 kg Pack the food in portions in freezer bags, reusable plastic,
u
metal or aluminium containers.
Control

5.3.2 Thawing food

- in the refrigerator compartment
- at room temperature
- in a microwave oven
- in a conventional or fan oven Food once thawed should be re-frozen only in exceptional
u
cases.

5.3.3 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 do not have to activate SuperFrost in the following cases:

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 6.3) .
Freezer compartment:
The moisture condenses on the evaporator, is periodically defrosted and evaporates.
The appliance does not have to be manually defrosted.
u

6.2 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 6.3) .
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
Place a pan with hot, not boiling
u
water on a middle shelf.
-or-
Half-fill the two lower drawers with

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.
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
A low hum.*
The sound is produced by air flow noise of the fan.
The sound is normal.
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 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 outside surfaces of the appliance are warm. *
The heat of the refrigeration circuit is used to prevent
condensate from forming. This is normal.
u
