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!
Caring for the environment
Disposal of your old appliance
Old appliances contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled. Please contact your dealer, your waste collec­tion centre or scrap merchant about potential recycling schemes.
Make sure that the pipework is not dam­aged whilst moving an old appliance. This is to ensure that the refrigerant 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.
Ensure that the appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
See the appropriate section in the Warning and safety instructions.

This appliance complies with all rele­vant legal safety requirements. Im­proper use of the appliance can, however, present a risk of both per­sonal injury and material damage.
Before installation and before using for the first time, read the operating instructions carefully. They contain important notes on safety, the oper­ation and care of the appliance. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the ap­pliance.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user.
Correct usage
This appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only for the cool stor­age of food as well as for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food and preparing ice. 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.
Technical safety
gas 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 Dept. for advice.
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 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.

Warning and safety instructions
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply, make sure that the rating on the data plate corre­sponds to the voltage and frequency of the household supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid risk of damage to the appliance. If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec­trician.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national regulations. It is most import­ant that this basic safety requirement is tested by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held re­sponsible for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. elec­tric shock).
Safe operation of the appliance is
only assured if it has been installed and connected in accordance with these operating and installation instruc­tions.
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile in­stallations such as caravans, aircraft etc. However it may be suitable for such usage subject to a risk assess­ment of the installation being carried out be a suitably qualified engineer.
Installation work, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by suitably qualified and competent per­sons.
Repairs and other work by unqualified 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 handle frozen food with wet
hands. Your hands may freeze to the frozen food. Danger of frost burn.
Do not take ice cubes out with
your bare hands. Never place ice cubes or ice lollies in your mouth straight from the freezer. The very low temperature of the frozen ice or lollies can cause frostburn to the lips or tongue.
Do not refreeze thawed or partially
thawed food. Defrosted food should be used up as quickly as possible as food soon loses it nutritional value and goes off. De­frosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.

Warning and safety instructions
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 in the cool zone, make sure it is tightly closed and stored upright. Danger of explosion.
Do not store cans or bottles con-
taining carbonated drinks or liquids which could freeze in the freezer section. The cans or bottles could explode. Danger of injury and damage to the ap­pliance.
When cooling drinks quickly in the
freezer, make sure bottles are not left in for more than one hour, otherwise they could burst. Danger of injury and damage to the appliance.
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. Otherwise the evaporator will be dam­aged 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.
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 ap­pliance 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 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.

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 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.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non­compliance with these safety instructions.
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.

Operation
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
The refrigerator section and the freezer section are switched on independently of one another so that if required only the one section needs to be switched on.
Refrigerator section
Using a coin turn the On/Off dial for the refrigerator section 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.
The alarm indicator light flashes. An alarm sounds after a short while and the appliance starts cooling.
Allow the freezer to run for a few hours before placing food in it. This will en­sure that the temperature in the freezer is sufficiently low.
Switching off the alarm
Press the alarm button.
The alarm stops. The indicator light re­mains lit until the freezer temperature which has been set is reached.
Ice pack
(depending on model) Place the ice pack in the top drawer or
to save space on the freezer tray. The ice pack will be at its most effective after it has been in the freezer for ap­prox. 24 hours.
The indicator light for the refrigerator section will come on. The appliance starts cooling. The interior light will come on if the door is opened.
Freezer section
Using a coin turn the On/Off dial for the freezer section in a clockwise di­rection away from the 0" position.
10
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 is switched 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
switch the appliance off at the mains, withdraw the plug (pull on the plug
and not the cable), defrost the freezer section, clean the appliance out and leave the doors ajar to air the ap-
pliance.
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.
Operation
11
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
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 freezer
For freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for a long time a tempera­ture of at least -18 °C is needed. At this temperature the growth of micro organ­isms is generally halted. As soon as the temperature rises to above -10 °C, the micro organisms become active in the food again so that it cannot be kept as long. 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.
Temperature selection
The temperatures for the refrigerator section and for the freezer section are set independently from one another. They have separate temperature dials.
. . . in the refrigerator
We recommend a temperature of 5 °C in the middle of the refrigerator section.
12
Using a coin turn the temperature dial in a clockwise direction to the re­quired setting.
Forcing it beyond its range would damage it. Turn it only as far as it will go, then turn it back again.
The higher the setting, the lower the temperature in the appliance.
Temperature display, freezer section
During normal operation the tempera­ture display on the control panel shows the temperature in the warmest part of the freezer section. Ranges of tempera­tures rather than individual tempera­tures are shown. This means that the temperatures displayed are approxi­mate.
If you have adjusted the freezer section temperature dial in order to set a differ­ent temperature, wait for approx. 6
hours if the freezer is not very full and for approx. 24 hours if the freezer is full before checking the tem-
perature display as it will take this long for the display to show the accurate temperature of the freezer. If the tem­perature displayed is too low or too high, then adjust the temperature once more.
The correct temperature
A temperature above -18 °C is no cause for concern in the following cir­cumstances:
– when the appliance has just been
switched on,
– 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 remains
above -18 °C for a long time, check that the frozen food has not started to defrost. Check that it is safe to use and if it is, then use it as soon as possible.
13
Alarm
Alarm
Your appliance has been fitted with a warning system which ensures that the temperature in the freezer cannot rise unnoticed. It is always active. An alarm will sound and the alarm indicator light will flash if the temperature becomes too warm. The setting on the tempera­ture control determines the temperature the machines recognises as too warm.
The alarm sounds and the alarm indica­tor light comes on,
– when the freezer is first switched on.
Switching the alarm tone off early
The alarm stops and the indicator light goes out once the set temperature range has been reached. However, if the noise disturbs you, you can turn the alarm tone off before this if you wish.
– when the door of the appliance has
been left open for a while, e.g. in
order to load, to re-arrange or to take
out food. – when freezing a large quantity of
food. – when there has been a lengthy inter-
ruption to the power supply.
Press the alarm button.
The alarm stops, but the alarm indi­cator light remains lit. It does not go out until the set temperature range has been reached.

Super freeze and dynamic cooling

Super freeze and dynamic cooling
Super freeze
Freezing fresh food
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible. This way the nutritional value of the food, its vitamin content, appearance and taste are not im­paired.
Food which takes a long time to freeze will lose more water from its cells which then shrink. During the defrosting process only some of this water is reabsorbed by the cells. The rest collects around the food. In practice this means that the food loses a large degree of its moisture.
If food is frozen quickly the cells have less time to lose moisture so they shrink less. As there is not so much moisture it is easier for the food to reabsorb it dur­ing the defrosting process.
Super freeze is not necessary:
when putting in frozen food.when freezing up to 2 kg fresh food
daily.
Switching on super freeze
Switch the super freeze function on be­fore putting fresh food into the freezer.
When freezing small quantities of food in the freezer the super freeze function should be switched on 4 – 6 hours be-
forehand. When freezing the maxi­mum load of food the super freeze function should be switched on 24 hours beforehand.
Press the super freeze button. The super freeze indicator light will come on.
The appliance works at full power to lower the temperature in the ap­pliance.
Switching super freeze off
The super freeze function will switch off automatically after approx. 50 hours. The Super freeze indicator light will go out and the appliance will continue to operate at normal power.
To save energy the super freeze func­tion can be switched off once a con- stant temperature of at least -18 °C has been reached in the freezer sec­tion.
To switch it off press the super freeze button. The super freeze indicator light will go out and the appliance will continue to operate at normal power.
15
Super freeze and dynamic cooling
Dynamic cooling
With dynamic cooling the temperature inside the refrigerator section is dis­tributed to all areas more evenly. All food stored in the refrigerator section will be chilled to about the same de­gree. The temperature is controlled as normal with the temperature 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
above the fan m. The fan will start turning.
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.
Turn the dynamic cooling dial to the
"0" position. The fan will come to a halt.
16
Storing food in the refrigerator section
Storing food in the refrigerator section
Natural air circulation gives rise to differ­ent temperature zones inside the refrig­erator section. Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the appliance.
Make use of the different zones when placing food in the appliance.
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 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.
Use the freezer section for the stor­age of frozen food, ice cubes and ice-cream.
17
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 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.
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.
18
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 con-
taining 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 con-
tainers. – Do not store groceries too close to
each other. Space should be left be-
tween individual items for air to circu-
late. – 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 ripePotatoes
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.

Maximum freezing capacity
To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer freezes through to the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freez­ing capacity must not be exceeded. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24 hour period is given on the data plate "Freezing ca-
pacity ..../24 hrs".
Storing frozen food
When buying frozen food to store in your freezer check
that the packaging is not damaged,the use by date,the temperature at which the frozen
food is being stored in the shop. The length of time it can be kept is re-
duced if it has been stored at a tem­peraure warmer than -18 °C.
Buy frozen food once you have fin-
ished the rest of your shopping and
wrap it in newspaper or use a cool
bag or box to transport it.
Store it in the freezer as soon as
possible.
Never re-freeze partially or fully de­frosted food. Consume defrosted food as soon as possible as it will lose its nutritional value and spoil if left for too long. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.
Home freezing
Only freeze fresh food which is in a good condition.
Hints on home freezing – The following types of food are suit-
able for freezing :
Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, ve­getables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy pro­ducts, pastry, leftovers, egg yolks, egg whites and a range of pre­cooked meals.
The following types of food are not
suitable for freezing :
grapes, lettuces, radishes, sour cream, mayonnaise, eggs in their shells, onions, whole raw apples and pears.
– To retain colour, taste and vitamin C,
vegetables should be blanched after they have been trimmed and washed. To blanch: bring a large saucepan of water to the boil, im­merse the vegetables in the fast boil­ing water for 2-3 minutes, depending on variety. Remove and cool quickly in cold water. Drain and pack ready for freezing.
– Lean meat freezes better than fatty
meat and can be stored for consider­ably longer.
– To prevent chops, steaks, cutlets or
rolled meat from freezing together in solid blocks when packed, separate with a sheet of plastic freezer film.
20
Freezing and storing food
– Do not season fresh foods or blan-
ched vegetables before freezing.
Only season cooked food lightly be-
fore freezing but care should be
taken as the taste of some spices al-
ters when frozen. – Do not place hot foods or drinks in
the freezer. This causes already
frozen food to thaw and increases
the energy consumption consider-
ably. Allow hot foods and drinks to
cool down before placing them in
the freezer.
Packing
Freeze food in portions.
Suitable packing material
plastic freezer film
freezer bags
freezer containers
aluminium foil
Freezer bags may also be sealed
using home heat sealing kits.
Expel as much air as possible from
bags etc. before sealing them to pre-
vent freezer burn on food.
Close the packaging tightly with
rubber bands
plastic clips
string or bag ties
cold resistant adhesive tape.
Make a note of the contents and the
date of freezing on the packaging.
unsuitable packing material
wrapping paper
grease-proof paper
cellophane
dustbin liners plastic carrier bags
Placing in the freezer
Fresh food can be placed in any drawer for freezing, however it is prefer­able to use the upper drawers. Large quantities can be placed directly on the evaporator plates to freeze the food quickly. To do this first take out one or several freezer drawers.
Each drawer and evaporator plate can be loaded with a maximum of 25 kg.
Place the food flat in the bottom of the drawers or on the evaporator plates so that it freezes through to the core as quickly as possible.
Make sure that the packaging and containers are dry to prevent them sticking together when frozen.
When freezing, make sure that food already frozen does not come into contact with fresh food being frozen as this could cause the frozen food to begin to defrost.
Freezer calendar
The freezer calendar on the freezer drawer gives the length of time which various foods can be stored effectively.
Where the storage time given on the packaging differs, follow the advice on the packaging.
21
Freezing and storing food
Marker system for frozen food
Markers serve as a reminder of how long food has been stored.
Each freezer drawer has two slide mar­kers with dials. The months are repre­sented on the dials as 1 – 12.
Slide the markers onto the guide run-
ners on the edge of the drawers. Use the markers to indicate the type of
food being frozen and turn the dials to the appropriate number to indicate the month the food was first placed in the freezer.
Defrosting
Frozen food can be defrosted in differ­ent ways:
in the microwave oven,in the oven at the "Fan" or "Defrost"
setting,
at room temperature,in the fridge.
Fruit should be defrosted at room tem­perature in its packing or in a covered bowl.
Most vegetables can be cooked while still frozen. Just put straight into boiling
water or hot fat. The cooking time is slightly less than that of fresh vege­tables.
Poultry It is particularly important to ob­serve food hygiene rules when defrost­ing poultry. Do not use the liquid from defrosted poultry. Pour it away and wash the container it was in, the sink and your hands.
Warning Never re-freeze partially of fully de­frosted food. Consume defrosted food as soon as possible as it will lose its nutritional value and spoil if left for too long. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.
Ice cubes
Fill the ice tray three quarters full with water and place it on the bottom of one of the freezer drawers.
Once frozen, if necessary use a blunt instrument, for example, a spoon handle, to remove the ice tray from the freezer.
Ice cubes can be removed easily from the tray if it is held under cold running water for a short while.
Ice cream
Ice cream can be made in an ice tray without the cube divider. The freezing time depends on the fat content of the recipe and takes longer than water ice or sorbet. To remove ice cream from the tray, place the tray in water for a few minutes.
22
Freezing and storing food
Cooling drinks
When cooling drinks quickly, make sure bottles are not left in the freezer for more than one hour, as they could burst.
Freezer tray
The freezer tray can be used for freez­ing soft fruit, herbs, small items etc. The tray allows you to space out the food so that it does not stick together and keeps its shape.
Place the food on the tray.
Hang the tray in one of the upper
freezer drawers.
Ice pack
(Depending on model) The ice pack prevents the temperature
in the freezer rising too quickly in the event of a power cut.
Place the ice pack in the upper drawer directly on top of food or to save space on the freezer tray. The ice pack will be at its most effective after it has been in the freezer for approx. 24 hours.
If there is a power cut lay the ice pack directly on top of the frozen food in the upper drawer so that the food will be kept cold for the longest time possible.
When placing fresh food in the freezer, use the ice pack to separate the fresh food from the food which is already frozen so that the frozen food does not begin to thaw.
The ice pack can also be used in a cool bag to keep food or drinks cool for a short period of time.
Leave food for 10 - 12 hours to freeze thoroughly on the tray. Transfer it to a freezer bag or suitable container once frozen. Place the bag or container in the freezer drawer.
23
Defrosting
Defrosting
Refrigerator section
Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the refrigerator section 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.
Freezer section
The freezer section does not defrost automatically because frozen food must not be allowed to defrost.
In normal use, and as a result of open­ing the freezer door, ice and frost will form on the evaporator plates. If allowed to accumulate, this will impair the efficiency of the freezer and in­crease the consumption of electricity.
Ensure that the condensate channel and drain hole are never blocked so that the condensate can flow away without hinderance.
Do not scrape ice and frost off the evaporator plates as this can dam­age the evaporator plates and the freezer making it unusable.
The freezer section should be de­frosted from time to time. It must be de­frosted if a layer of ice approx. 5 mm thick has accumulated. It is best to de­frost when only very little food or no food at all is left in the freezer.
Before defrosting
Switch on the super freeze function at least 4 hours before defrosting to ensure frozen food retains its cold reserve for longer when taken out of the freezer.
Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in another freezer or cool box or wrap it in sev­eral layers of newspaper or cloths and store in a cool place on top of freezer packs until the freezer is ready for use again.
24
Take all freezer drawers out of the freezer.
Defrosting
To defrost
Carry out the defrosting procedure as quickly as possible if food has not been placed in another freezer. The longer the food is left out at room temperature, the faster it de­frosts.
Switch the freezer section off by turn-
ing the on/off dial to the “0” position.
Open the freezer section door.
Use a sponge or towel to soak up
water from defrosting. To speed up defrosting, a bowl with hot
water (not boiling) can be placed in the appliance. Closing the door in this in­stance will help retain the warmth and speed up the defrosting process.
We do not recommend the use of hot air blowers such as hairdryers for defrosting your freezer.
After defrosting
Clean the freezer section and then dry it thoroughly.
Close the door and then switch the freezer section on.
Press the super freeze button so that the freezer section gets cold quickly. The indicator light will come on.
Once the temperature in the freezer has reached the required tempera­ture place the food back in the freezer drawers and place them back in the in the freezer.
The super freeze function can be switched off once a constant tem­perature of at least -18º C has been reached in the freezer. The super freeze indicator light will go out.
Never place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to defrost it. These can damage the plastic parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays, or de­icers 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.
25
Cleaning and care
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 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 required in the event of a service call.
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.
Clean the refrigerator section at least once a month and the freezer sec­tion each time it is defrosted.
Clean the condensate channel and drain hole frequently, so that conden­sate can drain away unhindered. Use a straw or similar to clear the drain if necessary.
Wipe 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.
Before cleaning
Switch the appliance off by turning
the On/Off dials 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.
26
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.
After cleaning
Replace all shelves and accessories
in the refrigerator section.
Place food back in the refrigerator
section, close the door, and switch
the appliance on.
Switch on the super freeze function
so that the freezer section can cool
down quickly. The super freeze indi-
cator light will come on.
Once the temperature in the freezer
has reached the required tempera-
ture place the food back in the
freezer drawers and place them
back in the freezer section.
The super freeze function can be
switched off once a constant tem-
perature of at least -18º C has been
reached in the freezer. The indicator
light will go out.

Problem solving guide
Problem solving guide
Repairs to electrical appliances should only be carried out by a suit­ably qualified and competent per­son in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Unauth­orised repairs could be dangerous.
The following faults can be corrected without contacting the Miele Service Department.
. . . the appliance does not get cool.
Make sure that the temperature dials are not pointing to the 0" position.
Check that the plug is correctly in­serted in the socket.
Check that the fuse is not defective and that the mains fuse has not blown. If it has contact the Miele Ser­vice Department.
What to do if . . .
. . . strange noises can be heard after switching on the appliance, espe­cially after it has just been installed.
Check to see whether any pieces of
furniture next to the appliance are vi-
brating whilst the appliance is in
operation. Switch the appliance off then:
Check whether the appliance is
aligned correctly.
Check whether all parts at the rear of
the appliance are free from hinde-
rance. Remove any hinderance.
Check whether the cable clips were
unclipped from the back of the ap-
pliance before installation. They
could vibrate when the appliance is
operating.
Are all removable parts securely lo-
cated in the appliance?
Are bottles or containers touching
each other? Remember that the noise of the com-
pressor and the coolant circulating in the system is unavoidable.
28
. . . the door to the freezer section will not open because it has been op­ened and closed too many times in succession.
This is not a fault. The suction caused by opening and closing the door is preventing the door from opening. Wait a few minutes and then try again. It should now open without force.
. . . the temperature in the refrig­erator or freezer section is too low.
Turn the temperature dial to a setting closer to “0".
The super freeze function has not been switched off. The indicator light is still on.
. . . the appliance is switching in too frequently and for too long.
Check whether ventilation gaps in the plinth and in the housing unit at the top have been covered over or become too dusty.
The doors have been opened too fre­quently, or a large quantity of fresh food has been put in at once for freezing.
Problem solving guide
Check that the doors have been
properly closed.
Check whether a thick layer of ice
has built up in the freezer section. If
it has then the freezer section will
need defrosting.
. . . food has frozen together.
Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon handle or plastic scraper to carefully prise it apart.
. . . there is a thick layer of ice in the freezer section.
Check whether the door to the
freezer section closes properly.
Defrost and then clean the freezer
section. Too thick a layer of ice reduces effi-
ciency and increases energy consump­tion.
. . . the alarm indicator light flashes at the same time as the -15 °C or -18 °C Temperature display.
There is a fault. Call the Miele Service Department.
. . . the refrigerator section indicator light is not lit up.
Check to see whether the super freeze indicator light comes on when the super freeze button is pressed.
If it does, then the refrigerator sec­tion indicator light is defective. Call the Miele Service Department.
If the super freeze light does not come on either, then check whether
– the plug is correctly inserted in the socket. – the mains fuse has blown. If it has there is a fault. Call the Miele Service Department.
. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm indicator light flashes.
The freezer section temperature has risen above the setting on the tempera­ture dial because
the door has been opened too fre-
quently or large amounts of fresh
food have been put in for freezing.
the temperature dial has been
turned to a higher setting, but the
machine has not yet reached the re-
quired temperature.
the ventilation gaps are blocked. Once the problem has been resolved
the alarm indicator light will go out and the alarm goes off.
. . . the super freeze indicator light does not light up although the ap­pliance is working.
The indicator light is defective. Call the Miele Service Department.
29
Problem solving guide
. . . the interior light in the refrig­erator section does not work.
Has the door been left open for too
long? The light automatically goes
out if the door has been left open for
approx. 15 minutes. If this is not the case then the bulb may
be defective and need replacing:
Disconnect the appliance from the
mains. Switch off at the wall and with-
draw the plug from the socket (pull
by the plug not the cable), or discon-
nect the mains fuse or remove the
screw-out fuse in countries where
this is applicable.
. . . the floor of the refrigerator sec­tion is wet.
The drain hole has become blocked.
Clean the condensate channel and drain hole.
If you still cannot remedy the fault having followed these suggestions, then contact the Miele Service De­partment. To prevent unecessary loss of tem­perature it is advisable not to open the doors whilst waiting for the ap­pliance to be serviced.
Press the sides of the lamp cover in-
wards, disengage the cover and un-
clip it at the rear.
Unscrew the bulb and replace it with
a new one.
Bulb specification:
220 – 240 V, max. 25 W, E 14 fitting
When fitting in the new bulb make
sure that it is correctly fitted.
Clip the lamp cover back in at the
rear and then press it into position
from the sides.

Installation
Installation
This appliance must be built in, otherwise it could tip up.
Location
The appliance should be installed in a dry well ventilated room. The room temperature should not go above or below the climate range for which the appliance is designed. The higher the ambient temperature of the room the more energy the appliance re­quires to operate. It should not be in­stalled where it is exposed to direct sunlight or directly adjacent to a heat­producing appliance such as an oven or a radiator.
Climate range
The appliance is designed for a particu­lar climate range (ambient room tem­perature), and should not be used out­side this range. The climate range of this appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
Ventilation
Air at the rear of the appliance gets warm. The appliance housing unit must be constructed to allow sufficient space for ventilation. Miele kitchen units are designed to provide this venti­lation.
A ventilation gap of at least 50 mm depth must be allowed for behind the appliance for air to circulate. The air inlet to the appliance is via the plinth in the housing unit. The cross section of the air inlet and outlet must be at least 200 cm sure that air can circulate without hinde­rance. Otherwise the appliance has to work too hard resulting in an increase in electricity consumption and damage to the compressor.
The air inlet and outlet must not be covered or blocked in any way. They should be dusted on a regular basis.
