2 Cooling
3 Freezer compartment*
You are advised to clean the appliance before switching it on for the first time (see "Cleaning").
Switching the appliance on and off, setting the temperature
W On: Turn the temperature control 1, fig.
A1, clockwise from "0" to "4". The
appliance is now switched on and the interior light comes on.
W Off: The appliance is switched off at the
"0" setting. The interior light is off.
W The positions of the temperature control indicate the
following: "1" = warm, lowest cooling setting "7" = cold, highest cooling setting
W We recommend a medium setting. 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 cold setting (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 procedure is complete and the appliance will return to its normal cooling function.

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
stored in the freezer compartment:
poultry, beef, lamb 6 to 12 months
fish, pork 2 to 6 months
game, rabbit, veal 4 to 8 months sausage, ham 2 to 4 months pre-cooked meals 2 to 4 months vegetables and fruit 6 to 12 months cheese, bread, baked goods 2 to 6 months yeast-risen pastry 1 to 5 months ice-cream 2 to 3 months
Notes on energy saving
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.

4 Defrosting, cleaning
5 Troubleshooting
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:
Malfunction Possible 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.
