- Corrugated board/board
- Moulded polystyrene (foamed, CFC-free polystyrene)
- Polythene bags and sheets
- Polypropylene straps
W Keep packaging materials away from children -
polythene sheets and bags can suffocate!
Please return the packaging material to your nearest
W
official collection point so that the various materials can be reused or recycled as far as possible.
Your old appliance:
This contains some reusable materials and should not simply be disposed of with household or bulk refuse. W Disable discarded appliances immediately by
removing the plug and cutting through the con­nection cable.
Remove the spring-action or bolt catch from the appliance or render it unusable so that children cannot become trapped inside and suffocate.
W Ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged
before the appliance that is no longer needed is taken away for disposal. In this way the refrig­erant or oil will not escape into the environment.
- Exact details of the refrigerant used can be found on the type plate. The heat insulator is PU with Pentane.
- Information on collection dates or collection points can be obtained from the waste disposal
authorities or local council.
Technical safety
W To prevent injury or damage to the unit, the
appliance should only be transported wrapped and set up by two people.
W The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly
but flammable.
W Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.
Splashes of refrigerant can harm your eyes or ignite.
W If refrigerant escapes, remove all naked flames or
sources of ignition in the vicinity of the leak, disconnect the appliance from the mains and ventilate the area well.
W In the event that the appliance is damaged,
contact the supplier immediately before connect­ing to the mains.
W To guarantee safe operation, ensure that the
appliance is set up and connected as described in these operating instructions.
W Disconnect the appliance from the mains if any
fault occurs. Pull out the plug (not by pulling on the mains cable) or switch off or remove the fuse.
W Any repairs and work on the appliance should
only be carried out by the customer service department, as unauthorised work could prove highly dangerous for the user. The same
applies to changing the mains power cable.
Safety during use
W
Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propellants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the appliance. Electrical components might cause leaking gas to ignite. You can identify such sprays by the printed contents or a flame symbol.
W Only store high-percentage alcohol in tightly sea-
led, upright containers.
W Do not allow naked flames or ignition sources to
enter the appliance. Do not use electrical appliances inside the appliance
W
(e.g. steam cleaners, heaters, ice makers, etc.).
W Do not stand on the plinth, drawers or doors or
use them to support anything else.
W Do not let children play with the appliance, e.g. do
not allow them to sit in the drawers or swing on the door.
W Do not eat ice-cream, particularly ice lollies or ice-
cubes, immediately after taking them from the freezer compartment as there is a risk of "burning" because of the very cold temperatures.
W Do not consume food which has been stored for
too long, as it could cause food poisoning.
Setting up
W When setting up/fitting ensure that the refrigerant
circuit pipes are not damaged.
W
Screw the handle onto the door using the holes provi­ded. Clip the cover strip or caps* into place. To remove the cover strip later on, simply detach it by inserting a screwdriver into the cut-outs at the back.
By fitting these parts yourself you will help to save on packaging material.
W Once in position, use the 19 spanner provided to
adjust the feet so that the appliance is level and does not wobble.
W Avoid positioning in direct sunlight or next to an
oven, radiator or similar, in damp locations or near spraying water.
W Standard EN 378 specifies that the room in which
you install your appliance must have a volume of
3
per 8 g of R 600a refrigerant used in the
1 m appliance, so as to avoid the forma-tion of inflammable gas/air mixtures in the room where the appliance is located in the event of a leak in the refrigerant circuit. The quantity of refrigerant used in your appliance is indicated on the type plate on the inside of the appliance.
W The ventilation grilles should not be ob-
structed. Always ensure that there is good ventilation and that the outward flowing air is able to escape. Please note the appendix con-
cerning installation instructions.
W Do not place heat-emitting appliances, e.g.
microwave oven, toaster, etc., on top of the re­frigerator or freezer.
W Remove the transport attachments on the
shelves and insert at the desired height.

Arranging food in the refrigerator
Because of the natural circulation of air in the refrigerator compartment, the temperature in different parts of the refrigerator will differ, each area being suitable for different types of food. The refrigerator is coldest just above the vegetable bins and against the rear wall (suitable for sausage and meat products etc.); it is warmest at the front at the top and in the door (suitable for spreadable butter, cheese etc.). See fig. B for food storage suggestions.
Notes on cooling
- Store food so that air can circulate properly around it. Do not pack the refrigerator too full.
- Food which gives off or absorbs odours and flavours, and liquids should always be stored covered or in closed

Superfrost
Fresh
food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as possible. Frozen food can also be given a cold boost. This is provided by the "Superfrost" facility and ensures that the nutritional value, appearance and flavour of the food remain intact. W The maximum amount of food which can be
frozen in 24 hours is shown on the type plate ("Freezing capacity ... kg/24h"), fig. A2, pos. This amount varies according to the model and climate rating.

Freezing with Superfrost
fig. A1/2 W Press the Superfrost button 2 briefly so that the
LED lights up. The freezer temperature will decrease and the appliance will switch to the lowest temperature.
W For small amounts of frozen food, it is normally
sufficient to switch on Superfrost 6 hours before­hand. For the capacity on the type plate) you will need to switch it on 24 hours beforehand.
W Then place the fresh food inside the freezer,
preferably in the top drawers. If freezing the use the drawers; instead, place the wrapped food directly on the cooling plates. Once the food is frozen you can load it into the drawers.
- The Superfrost function switches off automati-
cally after about 65 hours. The freezing process is now complete, the Superfrost LED will go out, and the freezer will switch back to normal energy-saving operation.
NB:
To save energy, you can

Notes on freezing and storage
W Items suitable for freezing: meat, game,
poultry, fresh fish, vegetables, fruit, dairy prod­ucts, bread, baked goods, pre-cooked meals. Not suitable: lettuce, radishes, grapes, whole apples and pears, fatty meat.
W Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or re-
usable plastic, metal or aluminium containers.
W Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to
come into contact with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry in order to avoid them sticking together.
W Always write the date and contents on the pack
and do not exceed the stated storage time for the food. This prevents any risk of quality impair­ment.
W Pack food which you are freezing yourself in
quantities appropriate to your household. To ensure that the food freezes right through quickly, the following quantities should not be exceeded per package:
- fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg;
- meat: up to 2.5 kg. W Blanch vegetables after washing and cutting
them. (Add to boiling water for 2-3 minutes, remove and quickly cool down in cold water. If you blanch with a steamer or microwave oven, please observe the relevant operating instruc­tions.)
W Do not salt or season fresh food or blanched
vegetables before freezing. Only lightly salt and season other food. Some spices can alter their flavour intensity.
W Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain
carbonated drinks as they might burst. Drinks can be cooled down quickly, but take the bottles out of the freezer compartment after an hour at the most.
W Storage: Each drawer and cooling plate can take
up to 25 kg frozen food.
W If you want to use the maximum net capacity, you
can remove the drawers and store items directly on the cooling plates. This will use slightly more electricity.
W Removing drawers: Pull
forward until the drawer stops and lift out. If the drawers are removed, the cooling plates must not be loaded above the loading limit (arrows on the side walls) at the front, fig.
W Always store identical food
items together to avoid the door being open for unnecessarily long periods and to save energy.
W Do not exceed storage times given. W Thawing: Only take out as much food as is
immediately required for thawing. Cook food which has been thawed as quickly as possible. Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways:
- in a conventional or fan oven
- in a microwave oven
- at room temperature
- in the refrigerator: the cold given off by the frozen food is used for cooling the other food.
- Flat portions of meat or fish can be cooked when partially thawed.
- Vegetables can be cooked from frozen (in half the normal time).

Freezer tray*
This is used for gently freezing berries, herbs, vegetables and other small items and prevents them from sticking toge­ther. Items being frozen will largely
retain their shape, and it will be easier to remove exactly the right quantity later on.
W Spread the items out loosely on the tray. W Freeze for 10 to 12 hours, then transfer to a freezer bag or
container and put in a drawer.
W To defrost, spread the frozen items out loosely.
Cold-storage accumulator*
The cold-storage accumulator serves two purposes:
1. It prevents the temperature in the freezer from rising too quickly in the event of a power failure, thus preserving the quality of the food. To save space the cold-storage accumulator can be placed on the freezer tray or directly on the topmost cooling plate. In this position, the accumulator will be completely frozen in a few days. To freeze more quickly, place it in an empty freezer drawer. W To ensure maximum storage time in the event of a power
failure, place the directly on top of the food.
2. When purchasing frozen food, you can ensure it remains frozen, thus preserving its quality, by using the cool box with the cold-storage accumulator in the lid. On journeys and picnics drinks and food remain cool and fresh. The cool box and accumulator can be obtained from your dealer. W The cold-storage accumulator cools best after it has been
kept frozen in an empty freezer drawer for approx. 24 hours at -18°C or below and then placed in the cool box.

Making ice-cubes
W Press the locking bolt downwards. W Fill the ice-cube tray with water.
Surplus water will flow through the drain hole.
W Push the locking bolt upwards. W Place the ice-cube tray in the
appliance and leave it to freeze.
W The ice-cubes can be removed from the tray by twisting
or by holding upside down for a short time under running water.
Defrosting
The refrigerator compartment
defrosts automatically. The defrost water is evapo­rated by the heat from the compressor; drops of water on the rear wall are perfectly normal. W Ensure that the defrost water can flow freely
through the drain hole in the rear wall (arrow in fig. A).
The freezer compartment
After the appliance has been in operation for some time, a layer of ice will form on the aluminium panels and the fronts of the drawers if the door is opened and fresh food placed inside the freezer regularly. This is completely normal. However, a thick layer of ice will increase the appliance's energy consumption. You should therefore defrost the appliance regularly: W Switch on "Superfrost" the day before defrosting
to give the food a cold boost.
W To defrost, switch off the appliance:
- Disconnect the appliance from the mains or
- set the temperature control to "0". W If possible, put the frozen goods in the freezer
drawer with the cold-storage accumulators on top, wrap in newspaper or a blanket and store in a cool place.
W Pull out the defrost drain pipe
place a bowl or the empty bottom freezer drawer underneath. If you use the bottom drawer push the drain pipe through the slot in the end (fig. A4).
W To speed up defrosting, place a pan with hot but
not boiling water on one of the middle shelves.
Do not use electric heaters or steam cleaners, defrosting sprays or naked flames for de­frosting nor any metal objects for removing the ice. Risk of injury and damage!
W Leave the door of the appliance open while de-
frosting. After defrosting, mop up the remaining water and clean the appliance.

Cleaning
W Before cleaning, always switch off the ap-
pliance. Disconnect from the mains or un­screw or remove the fuse.
W Clean the outer walls, inside and equipment by
hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent. Because of the risk of injury and damage to the appliance, steam cleaning equipment should not be used. Never use abrasive or scouring sponges. Do not use concentrated cleaning agents and never use abrasive or acid cleaners or chemical solvents.

6 Troubleshooting
- We recommend using a soft cloth and an all­purpose cleaner with a neutral pH value.
- Do not allow cleaning water to run down the drain gulley or to penetrate the ventilation grilles or electrical components. Dry the appliance.
- Do not damage or remove the type plate on the inside of the appliance. It is very important for servicing purposes.
W The butter dish* can be washed in a dishwasher.
The racks, shelves and other components should be cleaned by hand as they are not dishwasher­safe.
W Clean the drain hole on the rear wall above the
vegetable bins frequently, fig. A, arrow. If neces-
sary, clean with a thin object, e.g. a cotton swab or similar.
W The dust should be removed
from the refrigeration unit and heat exchanger - metal grid at the back of the ap­pliance - once a year. Dust deposits increase energy consumption.
W Ensure that none of the wires or other compo-
nents are dislodged, bent or damaged.
W Then connect/switch on the appliance and start
to insert the food to be frozen as the temperature drops.
If the appliance is to be left switched off for any length of time, empty the appliance, disconnect from the mains, clean as described above and leave the door open so as to avoid odours.
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 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:
Malfunction Possible cause and remedy
Appliance does not work, display is off
- Is the appliance switched on properly?
- Is the mains plug properly inserted in the socket?
- Is the socket fuse intact?
The interior light does not come on
- Is the refrigerator compartment switched on?
- Has the door been open for more than 15 minutes?
- The bulb is defective. Change the bulb as described in "Interior light".
Loud running noise
- Is the appliance standing firmly on the floor, or does the compressor cause nearby items of furniture or objects to vibrate? If necessary, move the appliance slightly, align by adjusting the adjust-able feet, or move bottles and con­tainers apart.

Notes on energy saving
W Ensure that there is adequate space around the
appliance for ventilation and air extraction.
W Avoid keeping the door open for too long. W Store food logically. Do not exceed the storage
period specified.
W Keep all food properly packed and covered so as
to avoid its frosting up on the outside.
W Always allow hot food to cool to room tempera-
ture before placing in the appliance.
W Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator. W If an ice layer forms in the freezer, defrost it.
This will improve the cold transfer and reduce energy consumption.
W Keep the appliance door shut in the event of a
breakdown. This will delay the cold loss and will help to maintain the quality of the frozen food for longer.

fig. U To adapt the height of the appliance to the surrounding furniture a top unit A gap of at least 50 mm depth must be provided behind and along the entire width of this unit so as to ensure sufficient ventilation. The area of ventilation underneath the ceiling should be at least 300 cm area the more economically the appliance will run. W When setting up the appliance next to a wall
minimum distance of 50 mm must be provided on the hinge side between the appliance and the wall (for the handle when the door is open).
W When installing the appliance in a row of kitchen units,
spacer strips must be used down the side of the ap­pliance. These strips must be at least 10 mm thick. When installing a decor panel, don't forget to make allowance for the thickness of the panel (max. 4 mm) ­this is important to ensure that the door can open and close properly.
If you wish to attach the appliance to adjacent units or to fit spacer strips, please note the following:
W Verify that the door can open and close properly. W Do not drill holes inside the marked area (fig. U),
otherwise damage could be caused to foamed components.

Notes on assembling decor panels
Decor panel and frames can be attached to the door of your appliance to match or contrast it to the existing kitchen colour scheme. The panels are available from your kitchen furniture supp­lier. The frames can be fitted later and are available from your dealer.
If you wish to fit the decor panels yourself, you will need a drill or a rechargeable screwdriver to pre-drill the retaining holes. For further instructions and dimensions see the installation instructions included in the retrofit kit.
All types and models are subject to continuous improve­ment and the manufacturer therefore reserves the right to make modifications in the shape, equipment and technology.
