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
be disposed of properly - not simply with unsorted household refuse.
- Disable discarded appliances immediately by
removing the plug and cutting through the
connection cable.
- Remove the spring-action or bolt catch from
the appliance so that playing children cannot
become trapped inside and suffocate.
- Make sure that the refrigerant circuit of an
appliance that is no longer needed is not damaged before it is collected or handed in at a
municipal collection point so as to ensure that
the refrigerant or oil does 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 your 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.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.

erant circuit pipes are not damaged.
W Once in position, use a 10 spanner 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 1 m
used in the appliance, so as to avoid the formation 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.

For appliances with a freezer compartment:
W If you are storing frozen food and wish to ensure that
the low freezer temperature is maintained, we recommend setting the temperature control to between "4"
and "7".
22
Cool-Plus switch
W At low room temperatures of 18°C or
below, switch on the Cool-Plus switch
fig. A1, on the temperature control housing.
This will ensure that the freezer compartment stays at the right temperature.
W At normal room temperatures of above 18°C, it is not
necessary to switch on the Cool-Plus switch; it should
stay switched off.
NB: Please note that the temperature inside the appliance
is affected by the room temperature, the place where the
appliance is installed, the frequency with which the door is
opened and how full the appliance is.
Notes on cooling
W As a result of the circulation of the air, the temperature
in the refrigerator compartment is not uniform. This
can have advantages for storing different types of food.
- Just above the vegetable bins and at the back of the
refrigerator, the air is colder, ideal for raw meat or cold
meats.
- At the top front of the compartment and in the door,
the air is warmer, making it ideal for cheese and for
spreadable butter.
W Store food so that the air can circulate freely; do not
place items too close together, and keep at least 2 cm
away from the interior light.
W Always store food in closed containers or wrapped;
high-percentage alcohols should be tightly sealed and
stored upright.
W Reusable plastic, metal, aluminium and glass contain-
ers or cling-film can be used for wrapping.
W Always store food which gives off or is sensitive to
ethylene gases such as fruit, vegetables and salads
separately or wrapped in order not to affect their
storage life; e.g. do not store tomatoes together with
kiwis or cabbage.

Freezer compartment*
You can store frozen food for several months, prepare icecubes and freeze fresh food in the freezer compartment at
temperatures of -18°C and lower (medium temperature
setting or lower).
NB: The air temperature in the compartment, measured
with a thermometer or other measuring equipment, may
fluctuate. However this will have little effect on the frozen
food when the compartment is full. The core temperature
of the frozen food will be the average of these values.
Freezing fresh food
Fresh food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as
possible. This ensures that the nutritional value, vitamins,
appearance and flavour of the food remain intact. Larger
quantities of fresh food should be frozen as follows:
W Approx. 24 hours before placing the food in the freezer,
turn the temperature control to a medium to coldsetting (approx. 6).
- Switch on Cool-Plus
will receive an additional boost.
W Insert the fresh food. You can freeze up to
2 kg/24 hours.
Spread out the fresh food on the bottom of the freezer
compartment as much as possible and do not allow it
to come into contact with frozen food already stored.
W The freshly frozen food will be thoroughly frozen after
24 hours.
- Set the temperature control back to its previous setting. Switch off Cool-Plus

Notes on freezing and storage
W Ready frozen food can be placed straight into the
freezer compartment.
W Once food has been thawed it should be prepared and
not simply frozen again.
W The following approximate values apply for frozen food
W Ensure that the ventilation spaces are free.
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 temperature be-
fore placing in the appliance.
W Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator.
W If an ice layer forms in the freezer compartment*, you
should defrost it. This will improve the cold transfer and
reduce energy consumption.

4Defrosting, cleaning
5Troubleshooting
Defrosting
Appliances without a freezer compartment defrost 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 above).
Freezer compartment*
After a long period of operation, a layer of frost or ice
can build up inside the compartment. This increases
energy consumption. You
should therefore defrost the compartment regularly.
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!
To speed up the defrosting process place a saucepan of
hot but not boiling water in the compartment.
To defrost:
W Switch off the appliance: disconnect the appliance from
the mains or
- set the temperature control to "0".
W Remove frozen food, wrap in newspaper or blankets
and keep in a cool place.
W Leave the freezer compartment door and the appliance
door open when defrosting.
Mop up the defrost water with a sponge or cloth. Clean
the appliance afterwards.
Cleaning
W Before cleaning, always switch off the ap-
pliance. Disconnect from the mains or unscrew or switch off 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.
- We recommend using a soft cloth and an all-purpose
cleaner with a neutral pH value.
- Ensure that no cleaning water penetrates into the electrical components, drain gulley* or ventilation grilles.
Wipe the appliance dry.
- Do not damage or remove the type plate on the inside of
the appliance. It is very important for servicing purposes.
W Clean the drain hole on the rear wall above the vegeta-
ble bins frequently, fig. A, arrow.
If necessary, 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 components are dislodged,
bent or damaged.
W Then connect/switch on the appliance.
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:
MalfunctionPossible cause and remedy
Appliance does not work:
- 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 appliance switched on?
- The bulb is defective. Change the bulb as described in
"Interior light".
Interior light on when Cool-Plus activated:
- This is necessary from a technical point of view and is
quite normal.
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 adjustable feet, or move bottles
and containers apart.
- Burbling noises are normal. These are caused by the
refrigerant flowing round the refrigerant circuit.
A short clicking sound: This will be heard whenever the
refrigeration unit (the motor) switches on or off automatically.
Motor noise: This will be slightly louder for a brief period
when the refrigeration unit switches on.
The temperature is not cold enough:
- Is the temperature setting correct? If necessary, set a
lower temperature. Loose thermometer in appliance is
showing a wrong reading.
- Does the door close properly?
- Is the appliance sufficiently well ventilated? Clear
ventilation grilles if necessary.
- Is the ambient temperature too hot? (See "Safety
regulations")
- Has the appliance been opened too often or left open
too long?
- If applicable, wait until the appliance reaches the
required temperature itself.
Customer service and type plate
If none of the above causes apply and you cannot rectify the
fault yourself, please contact your nearest customer service
department (see enclosed list for addresses). State the type
designation
ber
3 as given on the type plate, so as to ensure rapid,
accurate servicing. The type plate is located inside the
appliance on the left-hand side.
