Safety and warning information

Before you switch ON the appliance

Please read the operating and installation instructions carefully! They contain important information on how to install, use and maintain the appliance.

The manufacturer is not liable if you fail to comply with the instructions and warnings. Retain all documents for subsequent use or for the next owner.

Technical safety

The tubes of the refrigeration circuit convey a small quantity of an environmentally friendly but flammable refrigerant (R600a). It does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. If refrigerant escapes, it may injure your eyes or ignite.

If damage has occurred

■Keep naked flames and/or ignition sources away from the appliance,

■thoroughly ventilate the room for several minutes,

■switch off the appliance and pull out the mains plug,

■inform customer service.

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.

If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, customer service or a similarly qualified person. Improper installations

and repairs may put the user at considerable risk.

Note

Avoid contact between food and rear panel. Otherwise the air circulation will be impaired.

Food or packaging could freeze to the rear panel.

Removing the fittings

Pull out the frozen food container all the way, lift at the front and remove. Fig. )

Refrigerator compartment

The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage location for meat, sausage, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals

and pastries.

Storing food

■Store fresh, undamaged food. The quality and freshness will then

be retained for longer.

■In the case of ready-made products and bottled goods, observe the bestbefore date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer.

■To retain aroma, colour

and freshness, pack or cover food well before placing in the appliance. This will prevent the transfer

of flavours and the discolouration of plastic parts in the refrigerator compartment.

■Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.

Note

Do not block air outlet openings with food, otherwise the air circulation will be impaired. Food which is stored directly in front of the air outlet openings may be frozen by the cold air flowing out.

Note the chill zones in the refrigerator compartment

The air circulation in the refrigerator compartment creates different chill zones:

■The coldest zones are in front of the air outlet openings and in the chill compartment, Fig. !/22.

Note

Store perishable food (e.g. fish, sausage, meat) in the coldest zones.

■Warmest zone is at the very top of the door.

Note

Store e.g. hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. The aroma of hard cheese can then continue to develop and butter remains spreadable.

Super cooling

Super cooling sets the refrigerator temperature to the coldest temperature setting for approx. 6 hours. Then

the appliance automatically switches to the temperature set prior to super cooling mode.

Switch on super cooling mode, e.g.

■before placing large quantities of food in the refrigerator compartment.

■for the fast cooling of drinks.

Switching on and off

Fig. $

1.Select the refrigerator section using the compartment button.

2.Press the super button until the super cooling display lights up.

You do not need to switch off super cooling. After 6 hours, the previously set temperature is automatically restored.

Note

When super cooling is switched on, increased operating noises may occur.

The hyperFresh compartment

The temperature in the cool-fresh compartment is about 0 °C. The low temperature and the optimum moisture provide ideal storage conditions for fresh food.

Food can be kept fresh up to three times longer in the cool-fresh compartment than in the normal cooling zone – for even longer freshness, nutrient retention and flavour.

Vegetable container

Fig. '

The vegetable container is the optimum storage location for fresh fruit and vegetables. The humidity controller of the partition and a special seal can be used to adjust the air humidity in the vegetable container.

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

– lower air humidity

■Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed load or small load – 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 to +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.

“Cool-fresh” container

Fig. !/22

The storage climate in the “cool-fresh” container offers ideal conditions for the storage of fish, meat, sausage, cheese and milk.

Storage times (at 0 °C)

Depending on the initial quality

Fresh fish, seafood	up to 3 days
Poultry, meat (boiled/fried)	up to 5 days
Beef, pork, lamb, sausage	up to 7 days

Freezer compartment

Use the freezer compartment

■To store deep-frozen food.

■To make ice cubes.

■To freeze food.

Note

Ensure that the freezer compartment door has been closed properly. If the door is open, the frozen food will thaw. The freezer compartment will

become covered in thick ice. Also: waste of energy due to high power consumption!

Max. freezing capacity

Information about the max. freezing capacity within 24 hours can be found on the rating plate. Fig. ,

Prerequisites for max. freezing capacity

■Switch on super freezing before placing fresh products

in the compartment (see chapter entitled “Super freezing”).

■Remove containers; stack food directly on the shelf and on the floor of the freezer compartment.

■Freeze large quantities of food preferably in the very top compartment where food freezes particularly quickly and therefore also gently.

Freezing and storing food

Purchasing frozen food

■Packaging must not be damaged.

■Use by the “use by” date.

■Temperature in the supermarket freezer must be -18 °C or lower.

■If possible, transport deep-frozen food in an insulated bag and place quickly in the freezer compartment.

Note when loading products

■Preferably freeze large quantities

of food in the top compartment, where food freezes particularly quickly

and therefore also gently.

■Place the food over the whole area of the compartments or the frozen food containers.

Note

Food which is already frozen must not come into contact with the food which is to be frozen. If required, move

the frozen food to other frozen food containers.

Storing frozen food

Insert frozen food container all the way to ensure unrestricted air circulation.

Freezing fresh food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.

To retain the best possible nutritional value, flavour and colour, vegetables should be blanched before freezing. Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and asparagus do not require blanching.

Literature on freezing and blanching can be found in bookshops.

Note

Keep food which is to be frozen away from food which is already frozen.

■The following foods are suitable for freezing:

Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbs, eggs without shells, dairy products such as cheese, butter and quark, ready meals and leftovers such as soups, stews, cooked meat and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and desserts.

■The following foods are not suitable for freezing:

Types of vegetables, which are usually consumed raw, such as lettuce or radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, whole apples, pears and peaches, hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, crème fraîche and mayonnaise.

Packing frozen food

To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place in airtight containers.

1.Place food in packaging.

2.Remove air.

3.Seal the wrapping.

4.Label packaging with contents and date of freezing.

Suitable packaging:

Cling wrap, tubular film made of polyethylene, aluminium foil, freezer containers.
