persons could be dangerous and the
manufacturer will not be held responsible.
Ensure current is not supplied to
the appliance while maintenance
or repair work is being carried out.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– the plug has been withdrawn.
Do not pull on the cable, only on the
plug.
– the mains fuse is withdrawn.
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance.
(e.g. danger of overheating).
Use
Never store explosive materials in
the appliance. Switching on
thermostats and the interior light may
produce sparks which could present a
fire hazard.
If storing alcohol with a high per-
centage proof, make sure it is
tightly closed and stored upright.
Danger of explosion.
Observe the “use by” dates given
on food to avoid the risk of food
poisoning.
Storage times will depend on several
factors including the freshness and
quality of the food as well as the temperature at which it is stored. Follow
the instructions given on food manufacturer’s packaging on storage conditions
required as well as the “use by” date.
Do not use sharp edged objects to
– remove frost and ice,
– separate frozen foods and remove
ice trays.
They will damage the evaporator and
the appliance will not be able to be
used again (total damage).
Never place electric heaters or
candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic parts.
7
Warning and safety instructions
Do not use defrosting sprays, or
de-icers as they could contain substances which could damage the plastic parts and which may cause the
build up of gases and pose a danger
to health.
Do not use any grease or oil on the
door seals. These cause the seals
to become porous in the course of time.
Do not block the ventilation gaps
in the appliance as this would impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase the electricity consumption and
could cause damage to the appliance.
The appliance is designed for use
within certain climate ranges (ambient temperatures). It must not be
used in ranges for which it is not designed. The climate range for your appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance. Installing it in a
room with too low an ambient temperature will lead to the appliance switching
off for longer periods so that it cannot
maintain the required temperature.
Never use steam cleaning ap-
paratus to defrost or clean the appliance. The steam could attack the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Disposal of old appliances
Before disposing of an old ap-
pliance first make the door latch or
lock unusable.
This way you will prevent children from
accidentally locking themselves in and
endangering their lives.
Before disposing of an old ap-
pliance, unplug it and render the
plug useless. Cut off the cable directly
behind the appliance and at the plug to
prevent misuse.
Be careful not to damage any part
of the pipework whilst awaiting disposal, e.g. by
– puncturing the refrigerant channels
in the evaporator.
– bending any pipework.
– scratching the surface coating.
Splashes of refrigerant can damage the
eyes.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by noncompliance with these Warning and
safety instructions.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin,
pay particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the appliance guarantee.

Switching on and off
Before using for the first time
Clean the inside of the appliance
and the accessories with luke warm
water and a little washing up liquid
and then dry using a soft cloth.
Switching on and off
Switching off for longer
periods of time
If the appliance is not going to be used
for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst
on holiday
Switching on
Turn the temperature selector in a
clockwise direction away from “0”.
The appliance will begin to cool. The interior light will come on when the door
is opened.
Switching off
Turn the temperature selector in an
anti-clockwise direction back to the
“0” position.
The cooling system and the interior
light are now switched off.
switch the appliance off at the mains,
withdraw the plug (pull on the plug
and not the cable),
clean the appliance
leave the door to the appliance ajar
to air the appliance.
If, during a long absence, the appliance is switched off but not
cleaned out and the doors are left
shut there is a danger of mould and
odours building up inside the appliance.
9
The correct temperature
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.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise:
– the more often the door is opened
and the longer it is kept open,
– if too much food is stored in it at
once,
– the warmer the food is which is 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.
Temperature selection
Use the temperature selector to select
the temperature.
Turn the temperature selector to a
setting between 1 and 7.
The higher the setting the lower the
temperature in the appliance. A middle
range setting is usually sufficient.
. . . in the refrigerator
We recommend a temperature of
5 °C in the middle of the appliance.
10
Storing food
Natural air circulation gives rise to different temperature zones inside the appliance. Cold, heavy air sinks to the
lowest section of the appliance.
Make use of the different zones
when placing food in the appliance.
Storing food
Loading examples
When placing food in the appliance
load the top shelves first and work
your way down to the bottom starting
with baked goods, pre-cooked foods
and milk products and finishing with
meats, fish and sausages.
The coldest zones are against the
back wall and above the vegetable containers. Use the area above the vegetable containers for perishable foods
such as meat, sausage, fish etc.
The warmest zone is in the top section
of the door. Use this area for storing
butter and cheese.
Use the vegetable containers for storing vegetables, salad and fruit.
Not all fruit and vegetables should
be stored together in the same container as they give off natural gases
which affect the perishability of
other foods. (See section "Chilling
and storing food").
Fill the door shelves from the top to
the bottom.
Start with butter, cheese, small tins,
bottles and tubes in the upper
shelves, followed by large bottles,
juice containers and milk in the bottom shelves.
Do not store cooking oil in the appliance door.
Traces of oil can cause stress
cracks to occur in the plastic components in the door.
11
Adjusting the interior fittings
Adjusting the interior fittings
Moving the shelves
The shelves can be adjusted according
to the height of the food.
Adjusting door shelves
Push the door shelf upwards then
remove it by pulling it forwards.
Pull the shelves forward as far as
they will go then lift them upwards to
remove them.
With the rear barrier facing upwards
place the shelf at the required position.
The rear barrier must face upwards
to prevent food from touching the
back of the appliance and freezing
to it.
Split shelf
(depending on model)
In order to accommodate tall items in
the appliance one of the shelves is
divided. The front section can be taken
out to allow space for tall items standing on the shelf below.
Replace the door shelf at the required position. Ensure that it is securely pushed back into position.
Moving the bottle divider
The bottle divider can be moved to the
left or right to ensure that bottles are
held securely in position when the door
is opened and shut.
12
Chilling and storing food
Important notes:
Use the different cooling zones for
storing food correctly. See the section on loading examples.
– Food must not touch the back wall of
the appliance. Otherwise it may
freeze to the back wall.
– Do not store explosive materials in
the appliance or any products containing combustible gas (e.g. spray
cans). Danger of explosion.
– If storing alcohol with a high percent-
age proof, make sure it is tightly
closed, and store upright.
– Hot food and drinks must be cooled
to room temperature before placing
them in the appliance.
– Store food covered or packaged.
This way you will prevent food smells
or tastes from affecting other foods
and prevent food from drying out.
Fruit and vegetables may, however,
be stored loose in the vegetable containers.
– Do not store groceries too close to
each other. Space should be left between individual items for air to circulate.
– Do not keep the door open for too
long when putting food in and taking
it out of the appliance. This will help
save energy.
Chilling and storing food
Food which should not be stored in
a refrigerator
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration.
These include:
– Fruit and vegetables such as
bananas, avocado pears, papaya,
passion fruit, aubergines
– Fruit which is not yet ripe
– Potatoes
Some types of vegetables give off a
natural gas which speeds up the rate
at which food perishes. Some fruit and
vegetables react strongly to this gas
and should not be stored together in
the vegetable containers.
Examples of fruit which produce a
large amount of this natural gas are:
Apples, passion fruit, apricots, pears,
nectarines, peaches, plums, avocado
pears, papayas and figs.
Examples of fruit and vegetables
which react strongly to the natural
gases given off by other types of
fruit and vegetables are:
Kiwis, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels
sprouts, mangos, honeydew melons,
apples, apricots, cucumbers, tomatoes, bananas, avocado pears, pears,
nectarines and peaches.
13
Defrosting
Defrosting
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the appliance whilst it
is in use. These are automatically
removed and defrosted by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an evaporation system at the back of the appliance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are never blocked so
that condensate can flow away without hinderance.
14
Cleaning and care
Never use cleaning agents containing abrasive substances such as
sand, soda, acids or chemical solvents.
“Non-abrasive” cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Make sure that no water can penetrate into the temperature selector
or into the light.
Do not let water get into the drainage channel and drain hole when
cleaning.
Never use steam cleaning apparatus to defrost or clean the appliance. The steam could attack the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed. It contains information which is required
in the event of a service call.
Before cleaning
Switch the appliance off by turning
the temperature selector to the “0”
position.
Take any food out of the appliance
and store it in a cool place.
Take out any removable parts e.g.
shelves for cleaning.
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the outer casing, the
interior and accessories
Use lukewarm water with a little washing up liquid. Accessories and shelves
should be hand washed only. The butter dish is, however, dishwasher safe.
Clean the refrigerator at least once a
month.
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently, so that conden-
sate can drain away unhindered.
Use a straw or similar to clear the
drain hole if necessary.
After cleaning, wipe the outer cas-
ing, the interior and accessories with
a damp cloth and dry with a soft
cloth. Leave the door open to air the
appliance for a short while.
Ventilation gaps
The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up
of dust will increase the appliance’s
energy consumption.
Door seals
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seals as these will cause the
seals to deteriorate and become
porous with time.
The door seals should be cleaned regularly with clean water and then wiped dry
with a soft cloth.
15
Cleaning and care
Metal grille at the back of the
appliance
The metal grille at the back of the appliance (heat exchanger) should be
dusted at least once a year. A build up
of dust will increase the energy consumption of the appliance.
When cleaning the grille, make sure
that the pipework and other components do not get broken or damaged in any way.
After cleaning
Replace all shelves and accessories
in the appliance.
Switch the appliance on with the
temperature selector.
Place food back in the appliance
and close the door.

Building under
These appliances can be fitted underneath a worktop run in which case it is
essential to provide a minimum area of
space around the appiance for ventilation. Without this ventilation it cannot be
guaranteed that the appliance will work
to its full potential. The minimum ventilation area required is 140 cm
2
. The minimum height to the underside of the
worktop required to fulfil this requirement would be:
– K 2224 S 87.6 cm
– K 2214 S 87.6 cm
– K 2326 S 87.4 cm
– K 2316 S 87.4 cm
The appliance lid can be removed for
installation under a worktop. This reduces the height of the appliance by
3 cm, thus reducing the minimum worktop height requirement by 3 cm.
Building under
If there is not adequate ventilation
when placed under a worktop then
a minimum ventilation area of 140
2
cm
must be provided for at the
back of the worktop itself.
Note that if the building under depth
of the worktop is only 600 mm and
an upstand (e.g. a Corian splashback) is fitted above it, make sure
that it does not exceed 10 mm in
depth as otherwise it could hinder
ventilation from the appliance.
To remove the lid:
Remove screws b from the rear of
the appliance.
Lift the appliance lid up at the rear
and then pull it towards the front of
the appliance to remove it.
