This appliance is very heavy. If the
appliance falls over during transport
and installation work, it can cause
serious injuries. At least two people are
required to install the appliance safely.
Keep the doors of the appliance shut
until the appliance is positioned and
level at its installation location.
Installation location
The appliance should be placed in a
dry room that can be ventilated. The
installation location should not be
directly exposed to the sun and should
not be near a heat source
such as a
stove or radiator. If installation next to a
heat source is unavoidable, use a
suitable insulating plate or maintain the
following minimum distances from the
heat source:
n 3cm from an electric or gas
cooker,
n 30cm from oil or solid fuel cookers.
If the appliance is being installed next
to another refrigerator or freezer,
maintain a minimum distance between
the sides of the two appliances of
25mm. This prevents the formation of
condensation.
If there is a cover or cupboard above
the appliance, there must be a gap of
10mm to enable the appliance to be
pulled out if necessary.
The heated air must be able to escape
unimpeded from the rear of the

hydroFresh drawers
The temperature in the hydroFresh
drawers is kept at around 0°C. This
low temperature provides optimum
storage conditions for perishable
goods.
Foods can be kept in the hydroFresh
drawers for a much longer period of
time before spoiling than they can if
stored in the normal fridge
compartment.
The hydroFresh drawers are covered
by a special moisture filter. This special
filter optimises the air humidity in the
hydroFresh drawers. As a result, the air
humidity in the hydroFresh drawers is
up to 90% relative humidity depending
on how full they are. This storage
atmosphere provides optimum
conditions for fresh produce such as
vegetables, salad, herbs, and fruit.
Suitable for fresh cooling:
As a general rule, all fresh food that
needs to stay fresh as long as possible
is suitable. This includes meats and
sausages, fresh fish, seafood, milk,
butter, soft cheese, crème fraîche,
vegetables, and fruit.
Not suitable for fresh
cooling:
Fruit and vegetables that are sensitive
to the cold, such as tropical fruits,
avocado, papaya, passion fruit,
aubergine, cucumber, and peppers.
Also, fruit that needs to ripen, green
tomatoes, and potatoes should not be
kept here.
When purchasing food,
bear in mind the following:
The freshness of food at the time of
purchase is important when
determining how long it may be kept.
In principle, the following applies: The
fresher the produce when it is placed
into the hydroFresh drawers, the
longer it will keep. When purchasing
food, always pay attention to how
fresh it is.
Removing the hydroFresh
drawers
1. Pull the hydroFresh drawer out as
far as possible.
2. Lift the front of the hydroFresh
drawer and remove it.

Notes on the freezer
compartment
n Make sure that the freezer
compartment drawer is always
closed. If the drawer is open, the
frozen food thaws out. The freezer
ices up heavily. In addition, energy
is wasted due to the high power
consumption of the appliance.
n When you close the freezer
compartment drawer, there is
negative pressure in the freezer
compartment.
n If the freezer compartment drawer
cannot be opened again soon after
being closed, please wait for the
negative pressure to disperse.
Use the freezer
compartment for the
following:
n Storing deep frozen food.
n Freezing food.
n Storing ice cubes.
Freezing foods
Only freeze fresh food in good condition.
Do not allow food to be frozen right next
to food that has already been frozen.
Make sure that foods are packed in
airtight packaging so that they do not
lose their taste or dry out.
To pack the food
correctly:
1. Put the food into the packaging.
2. Squeeze out air completely.
3. Close packaging tightly.
4. Label packaging with its content
and date of freezing.
The following are unsuitable
for use as packaging:
Wrapping paper, parchment paper,
cellophane, refuse bags and used
shopping bags.
The following are suitable as
packaging:
Plastic films, tubular polyethylene films,
aluminium foil, and freezer bags.
You can buy these products from your
specialist dealer.
For sealing, the following are
suitable:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, string,
cold−resistant adhesive tape or similar.
You can use a heat sealer to seal bags
and tubular polyethylene films.
Storage life of frozen food
The storage life of food depends on
the foot type. The following guidelines
apply to a temperature of −18°C:
n Fish, sausage, prepared dishes,
bakery products:
Up to 6 months
n Cheese, poultry, meat:
Up to 8 months
n Vegetables, fruit:
Up to 12 months.
Buying and stori ng
deep−fro zen foods
Pay attention when purchasing deep
frozen food:
n Make sure that the packaging is not
damaged.
n Check the best before date.
n The temperature of the
supermarket freezer must be below
−18°C. Otherwise, the storage life
of deep−frozen foods is reduced.
n Buy deep frozen foods last.
Transport frozen food home in a
cold bag or wrapped in newspaper.
n At home put deep frozen food into
the freezer compartment
immediately. Use up deep frozen
food before the best before date.
Thawing out frozen
food
Depending upon type of food and the
intended use, a choice can be made
between the following:
n at ambient temperature,
n in the fridge,
n in an electric oven, with/without hot
air convection,
n in the microwave.
Caution!
Do not refreeze slightly or fully thawed
frozen food. Such food can only be
frozen again after being prepared
(boiled or roasted).
Do not fully utilise the maximum
storage period for the frozen food.

n Ice cubes.
! War ning !
Risk of injuries due to rotating crusher
blades!
Do not reach into the ice cube
dispenser opening.
Note the following when
placing the appliance into
operation
The ice and water dispenser only
works if the appliance is connected to
the water supply.
After placing the appliance into
operation, you must wait around
24hours before the first lot of ice
cubes is ready.
After the connections are made, air
bubbles are still in the lines.
Draw and discard drinking water until
the water can be drawn without
bubbles. Throw away the first five
glasses of water.
When using the ice maker for the first
time, throw away the first 30 to 40 ice
cubes for hygiene reasons.
Notes on using the
appliance
When the freezer compartment has
reached its freezing temperature, water
flows into the ice maker and freezes to
form ice cubes. The finished ice cubes
are automatically discharged into the
ice cube container.
Occasionally, the ice cubes stick
together. During transport to the
opening where they are discharged,
they usually separate automatically.
Once the ice cube container is full, the
ice maker switches off automatically.
The ice maker can produce up to 100
ice cubes in 24 hours assuming that
ice cubes are removed several times a
day. The quantity produced depends
on the room tempera
ture and the
appliance’s temperature setting.
When ice is being produced, you can
hear the water valve, the sound of the
water flowing into the ice bowl, and
the sound of the ice
cubes falling
down once they have been produced.
Information!
Do not put bottles or food for fast
cooling into the ice cube container.
The ice maker can become blocked
and damaged.
Pay attention to the
quality of the drinking
water
Caution!
The supplied water filter only filters out
particles from the supplied water, and
does not filter out bacteria or
microbes.
All materials used in the water
dispenser are odourless and tasteless.
If the water has an aftertaste, it may be
for the following reasons:
n Mineral and chlorine content of the
drinking water,
n Material of household piping or
connection line,
n Freshness of drinking water. If no
water is drawn for a long time, the
water can taste somewhat stale. If
this happens, draw and discard
around 15 glasses of water.
The taste and smell of the water can
be improved by the installation of the
supplied water filter in the water inlet.
