which is very environment friendly.
­Although it is flammable, it does not
damage the ozone layer and does not increase the green house effect. The use of this environment friendly 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, but does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during transporta­tion and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes. In the event of any damage: – avoid open fires
and anything which creates a spark, – disconnect from the mains, – air the room in which the appliance is
located for several minutes and – contact the Service Department.
for advice.
This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas
The more refrigerant 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 combusti ble gases building up. For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m room space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.

Operation
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
^ Using a coin turn the On/Off dial in a
clockwise direction away from the "0" position.
Forcing it beyond its range would damage it. Turn it only as far as it will go, then turn it back again.
An 8 will flash briefly in the temperature display followed by a bar lighting up. The appliance starts cooling. The interior light will come on if the door is opened.
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
switch the appliance off at the mains,
^
withdraw the plug (pull on the plug
^
and not the cable), clean the appliance out and
^
leave the door ajar to air the appli
^
ance
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.
-
Switching off
^
Using a coin turn the On/Off dial in an anti-clockwise direction back to the "0" position.
The temperature display goes out. The cooling process and the interior light are switched off.

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 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.
. . . in the refrigerator
We recommend a temperature of 5 °C in the middle of the refrigerator section.
Using a coin turn the temperature
^
dial in a clockwise direction to the required setting.
Turn it only as far as it will go, then turn it back again. Turning it beyond its range would damage it.
The higher the setting, the lower the temperature in the appliance.
With normal use a setting of between 2
and 3 is usually sufficient.
Temperature display
During normal operation the tempera­ture display on the control panel shows the temperature in the warmest part of the appliance.
If the temperature in the appliance is not within the range which can be displayed, i.e. between 2 and 9 °C, only a bar will show in the temperature display.
Temperature selection
The temperature is set with the temper ature dial.
10
Natural air circulation inside the appliance will mean that there are areas
-
inside the appliance which will be warmer or colder than the temperature displayed. As long as dynamic cooling has not been engaged this is quite normal.
Make use of the different temperature zones for storing your food correctly.
Super cool and dynamic cooling
Super cool
The Super cool function can be used to rapidly reduce the temperature to approx. 2 °C.
Switching on the Super cool function
Super cool is particularly recom mended for faster chilling of large loads of fresh food or drink.
^ Press the Super cool button, the
Super cool indicator light will come on.
The appliance works at full power to lower the temperature in the appli­ance.
Switching off the Super cool function
The Super cool function switches itself off automatically after approx. 6 hours. The indicator light goes out and the appliance continues running at normal power.
To save energy the Super cool function can be switched off once food and drinks are sufficiently chilled.
^
Press the Super cool button. The Super cool indicator light will go out.
The appliance continues running at normal power.
-
Dynamic cooling m
With dynamic cooling the temperature inside the appliance is distributed to all areas more evenly. All food stored in the appliance will be chilled to about the same degree. The temperature is controlled as normal with the tempera ture dial.
Dynamic cooling should be selected when:
the ambient temperature in the room
is high (above approx. 30 °C) and the room humidity level is high.
Switching on dynamic cooling
^ Press the dynamic cooling button m.
The dynamic cooling indicator light will come on.
Switching off dynamic cooling
When dynamic cooling is switched on the appliance uses more energy. It should therefore be switched off when the room temperature is normal (below 30 °C) and when humidity levels are normal.
^
Press the dynamic cooling button m. The dynamic cooling indicator light will go out.
-
11
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.
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.
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.
Use the vegetable containers for
^
storing vegetables, salad and fruit.
Not all fruit and vegetables should be stored together in the same con tainer 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.
-
12
Do not store cooking oil in the appli ance door. Traces of oil can cause stress cracks to occur in the plastic components in the door.
-
Adjusting the interior fittings
Moving the shelves
The shelves can be adjusted according to the height of the food.
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 posi tion. 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.
Adjusting door shelves
Push the door shelf upwards then
^
remove it by pulling it forwards. 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.
13
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.
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.
14
Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the appliance whilst it is in use. These are automatically re moved and defrosted by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a channel and drain hole into an evapora tion system at the back of the appli ance.
Ensure that the condensate channel and drain hole are never blocked so that condensate can flow away with out hindrance.

Cleaning and care
Never use cleaning agents contain ing 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.
Door fronts should be cleaned using a solution of warm water with mild detergent applied with a soft cloth or with a suitable cleaning agent for the type of door panel fitted.
Make sure that no water can pene­trate into the electronic unit 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 re quired in the event of a service call.
Before cleaning
^
Switch the appliance off by turning the On/Off dial to the "0" position.
Cleaning the interior and
-
accessories
Use lukewarm water with a little mild detergent. Accessories and shelves should all be hand washed. The butter dish is, however, dishwasher safe.
