Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and should be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
Take care not to damage the pipework
at the back of it before or during
transportation to an authorised
collection depot.
In this way, refrigerant in the pipework
and oil in the compressor will be
contained, and will not leak out into the
environment.

This appliance contains the coolant
~
Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which
is environmentally friendly. Although it
is flammable, it does not damage the
ozone layer and does not increase the
greenhouse effect. The use of this
coolant has, however, led to a slight
increase in the noise level of the
appliance. In addition to the noise of
the compressor, you might be able to
hear the coolant flowing around the
system. This is unavoidable, and does
not have any adverse effect on the
performance of the appliance.
Care must be taken during the
transportation and installation of the
appliance that no parts of the cooling
system are damaged. Leaking
refrigerant can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid any flames or anything which
creates a spark,
– disconnect it from the mains,
– ventilate the room where the
appliance is located for several
minutes, and
–
contact the Service Department for
advice.
The more coolant there is in an
~
appliance, the larger the room it should
be installed in. In the event of a
leakage, if the appliance is in a small
room, there is the danger of
combustible gases building up.
For every8gofcoolant at least 1 m
room space is required. The amount of
coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.

appliance.
If, during a long absence, the
appliance is switched off but not
cleaned out and the door is left shut,
there is a danger of mould and
odours building up inside the
appliance.
18
The correct temperature
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the
appliance. Micro-organisms will cause
food which is not stored at the correct
temperature to deteriorate rapidly.
Temperature influences the growth rate
of these micro-organisms. Reducing
the temperature reduces their growth
rate.
To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for a long time, a temperature of
-18 °C is required. At this temperature
the growth of micro-organisms is
generally halted. As soon as the
temperature rises above -10 °C, the
micro-organisms become active in the
food again so that it cannot be kept as
long. For this reason, partially defrosted
or defrosted food must not be re-frozen.
Food may be re-frozen once it has
been cooked, as the high temperatures
achieved when cooking destroy most
micro-organisms.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
–
the more often the door is opened
and the longer it is kept open,
–
the more food that is placed in it,
–
the warmer the food is which is being
put into it,
–
the higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the appliance.
The appliance is designed for use in
specific ambient temperatures
(climate ranges). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is
not designed.
Setting the temperature in the
freezer
Touch the access sensor so that it is
^
highlighted in yellow.
The temperature inside the appliance
^
can be selected by touching the
arrow sensors on either side of the
temperature display.
By touching the
X sensor: the temperature will get
colder
Y sensor: the temperature will get
warmer.
The temperature range being set will
flash in the display as you do this.
–
Touching the sensor once:
adjusts the temperature shown in
1 °C steps.
–
Keeping your finger on the sensor:
changes the temperature
continuously.
If the highest or lowest temperature that
it is possible to set is reached, the X or
Y sensor will disappear from the
display.
The temperature display on the
control panel always shows the
required temperature.
19
The correct temperature
When you have adjusted the
temperature, wait for approx. 6 hours
if the appliance is not very full and
for approx. 24 hours if the appliance
is full before checking the temperature
display, as it will take this long for the
appliance to reach the temperature. If,
after this time, the temperature is still
too high or too low, you will need to
adjust it again.
Temperature range
The temperature in the freezer can be
adjusted:
– with the ice/water dispenser
switched off: from -14 °C to -24 °C
– with the ice/water dispenser
switched on: from -18 °C to -24 °C
The ambient temperature in the
room and the installation location
can affect the time it takes for the
appliance to reach the lowest
temperature. If the ambient
temperature is too high, the
appliance may not reach the lowest
temperature.
Temperature
(Fahrenheit/Celsius)
The temperature can be displayed in
degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit.
Touch the access sensor so that it is
^
highlighted in yellow.
Take note of the position of the X
^
sensor (but do not touch it!).
Touch the access sensor until it is
^
highlighted in white and all of the
other sensors are no longer lit up.
^ Place your finger in the position of the
X sensor, and leave it there.
^ At the same time, briefly touch the
access sensor (without moving your
finger from the X sensor).
^ Leave your finger on the X sensor for
another 4 seconds until c and the Y
sensor also appear in the display.
20
^
Now touch the X sensor repeatedly
until † appears in the display.
^
Touch the access sensor again.
The correct temperature
By touching the X sensor, you can
^
now set the temperature to be
displayed in Fahrenheit or Celsius.
†0: Temperature in Fahrenheit
†1: Temperature in Celsius
† –: Return to menu
After selecting a new setting, touch
^
the access sensor to confirm your
choice.
Now touch the X sensor repeatedly
^
until c appears in the display.
^ Touch the access sensor again.
You have now left settings mode.
The door alarm is automatically
disabled when the appliance is in
settings mode. As soon as the door
is closed, the door alarm is activated
again.
Temperature display
The temperature display on the
control panel always shows the
required temperature.
The temperature display will flash if
a different temperature is being set,
–
the temperature in the appliance has
–
risen by several degrees, indicating
that the appliance is warming up too
much.
This loss of coldness is no cause for
concern in the following circumstances:
– when the door has been left open for
a while, e.g. for removing or storing a
large amount of food,
– when fresh food is being frozen.
However, if the temperature in the
freezer remains above -18 °C for a
long time, check that the frozen food
has not started to defrost. If it has,
check that the food is safe to use
and if it is, then use it as soon as
possible.
21
Temperature and door alarm
Your appliance has been fitted with a
warning system which ensures that the
temperature in the appliance cannot
rise unnoticed and to avoid energy
being wasted if the door is left open.
Activating the alarm system
The alarm system is always active. It
does not have to be switched on
manually.
Temperature alarm
If the temperature in the freezer
becomes too warm, the sensor for
switching off the temperature or door
alarm will flash on the control panel.
An audible alarm will also sound.
The temperature display will show the
warmest temperature which has been
reached.
The alarm will sound and the sensor for
switching off the temperature or door
alarm will flash, for example,
Switching the temperature
alarm off early
If the noise disturbs you, you can
switch the alarm off early if you wish.
Touch the sensor for switching off the
^
temperature or door alarm.
The alarm will stop.
The sensor for switching off the
temperature or door alarm will remain
on and will only go out when the
temperature has returned to normal.
However, if the temperature in the
freezer remains above -18 °C for a
long time, check that the frozen food
has not started to defrost. If it has,
check that the food is safe to use
and if it is, then use it as soon as
possible.
