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 can normally be recycled.
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.
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
Old appliances contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled. Please contact your dealer, your waste collec tion centre or scrap merchant about potential recycling schemes.
Make sure that the pipework is not damaged whilst moving an old appli ance. This is to ensure that the refriger ant and oil in the compressor cannot leak into the environment. It is important that they are disposed of in a safe manner by authorised persons only.

Correct usage
This appliance is intended for
domestic use only for the cool storage of foodstuffs. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be danger­ous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use of the appliance.
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.

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
percentage 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 manufac turer’s packaging on storage conditions required as well as the "use by" date.

Warning and safety instructions
Never place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic parts.
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 plinth or the top of the appli ance housing unit 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 tempera ture will lead to the appliance switching off for longer periods so that it cannot maintain the required temperature.
Never use steam cleaning
apparatus to defrost or clean the appliance. The steam could attack the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
-
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.
Disposal of old appliances
Before disposing of an old appli
ance 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
appliance, 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 non-compliance with these safety instructions.

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.
