Technical specifications
Refrigerant, cubic capacity and further
technical specifications can be found on
the rating plate.
Installing the appliance
Installation location
The more refrigerant an appliance
contains, the larger the room must be
in which the appliance is situated.
Leaking refrigerant can form
a flammable gas-air mixture in rooms
which are too small.
The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g
of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant
in your appliance is indicated
on the rating plate inside the appliance.
The weight of the appliance may be up
to 60 kg depending on the model.
Permitted room temperature
The permitted room temperature
depends on the climatic class of the
appliance.
Information on the climatic class can be
found on the rating plate.
Climatic category
SN +10 °C ... 32 °C
N +16 °C ... 32 °C
ST +16 °C ... 38 °C
T +16 °C ... 43 °C
The appliance is fully functional within
the permitted room temperature.
If an appliance of climatic class SN is
operated at colder room temperatures,
the appliance will not be damaged up to
a room temperature of +5 °C.
Permitted room temperature
Cavity depth
A cavity depth of 56 cm
is recommended for the appliance.
If the cavity depth is smaller – at least
55 cm – the energy consumption
increases slightly.

Electrical connection
Caution!
Do not connect the appliance to
electronic energy saver plugs.
Note: You can connect the appliance
to mains-controlled and sine-controlled
inverters.
Mains-controlled inverters are used for
photovoltaic systems which are
connected directly to the national grid.
Sine-controlled inverters must be used
for isolated applications. Isolated
applications, e.g. on ships or in
mountain lodges, which are not
connected directly to the national grid.
1. After installing the appliance, wait at
least 1 hour before connecting it to
prevent damaging the compressor.
2. Connect the appliance via a
correctly installed socket.
The socket must comply with the
following data:
Socket with 220 V ... 240 V
Conductor 50 Hz
Fuse 10 A ... 16 A
Outside Europe: Check whether the
indicated current type of the
appliance corresponds with the
values of your power supply.
Appliance specifications are on the

Refrigerator compartment en
U Refrigerator
compartment
Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is suitable
for storing meat, sausages, fish, dairy
products, eggs, ready meals and
pastries.
The temperature can be set from
+2 °C ... +8 °C.
The refrigerator compartment can also
be used to store highly perishable foods
in the short to medium term. The lower
the selected temperature, the slower the
enzymatic and chemical processes and
deterioration by microorganisms. A
temperature of +4 °C or lower ensures
optimum freshness and safety of the
stored foods.
Note when storing food
■ Store fresh, undamaged food.
The quality and freshness will then
be retained for longer.
■ In the case of ready products and
bottled goods do not exceed the
minimum sell-by date or use-by-date
indicated by the manufacturer.
■ To retain aroma, colour
and freshness, pack or cover food
well before placing it in the
appliance.
This avoids transference of flavours
and discolouration of the plastic
parts.
■ Leave warm food and drinks to cool
down before placing them in the
refrigerator compartment.
Note the chill zones in the refrigerator compartment
The air circulation in the refrigerator
compartment creates different chill
zones.
Coldest zone
The coldest zone is between the arrow
stamped on the side and the shelf
underneath.
~ Fig. *
Note: Store perishable food (e.g. fish,
sausages and meat) in the coldest
zone.
Warmest zone
The warmest zone is at the very top of
the door.
Note: Store e.g. hard cheese and
butter in the warmest zone. Cheese can
continue to release its flavour and the
butter will still be easy to spread.
Vegetable container with humidity control
~ Fig. +
The vegetable container is the best
storage location for fresh fruit and
vegetables. You can adjust the air
humidity in the vegetable container via
the humidity controller and a special
seal. This allows fresh fruit and
vegetables to be stored twice as long
as with conventional storage.
11
Page 12
en Defrosting
The air humidity in the vegetable
container can be set according to
the type and amount of products to be
stored:
■ Mainly fruit as well as for a large
load – set lower air humidity
■ Mainly vegetables as well as for
a mixed load or small load – set
higher air humidity
Notes
■ Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g.
pineapple, banana, papaya and
citrus fruit) and vegetables sensitive
to cold (e.g. aubergines, cucumbers,
zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and
potatoes) should be stored outside
the refrigerator at temperatures of
approx. +8 °C – +12 °C for optimum
preservation of quality and flavour.
■ Condensation may form in the
vegetable container depending on
the food and quantity stored.
Remove condensation with a dry
cloth and adjust air humidity in the
vegetable container with
the humidity controller.
= Defrosting
Defrosting
Refrigerator compartment
While the refrigerating unit is running,
condensation droplets or frost form on
the rear panel. This is due to functional
reasons. It is not necessary to wipe off
the condensation droplets or frost. The
rear panel defrosts automatically. The
condensation drains off into the
condensation channel.
~ Fig. ,
The condensation runs from the
condensation channel to the
evaporation pan where it evaporates.
Note: Keep the condensation channel
and drainage hole clean so that the
condensation can drain and odours do
not form.
D Cleaning
Cleaning
Caution!
Avoid damaging the appliance and the
fittings.
■ Do not use abrasive, chloride or
acidic cleaning agents or solvents.
■ Do not use scouring or abrasive
sponges.
The metallic surfaces may corrode.
■ Never clean the shelves
or containers in the dishwasher.
The parts may become deformed.
Proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Pull out the mains plug or switch off
the fuse.
3. Take out the food and store in a cool
location.
If present: place ice pack
on the food.
4. If present: wait until the layer of frost
has thawed.
5. Clean the appliance with a soft cloth,
lukewarm water and a little
pH-neutral washing-up liquid.
Caution!
The rinsing water must not run into
the light or through the drainage
hole into the evaporation area.
6. Wipe door seal with clear water and
dry thoroughly with a cloth.
7. Reconnect and switch on appliance
and put in food.
