Installation room

The appliance should be installed in a dry, welt ventilated room.

The ambient temperature should not drop below 55 °F (13 °C) or rise above 110 °F (43 °C), otherwise malfunctions may occur.

The installation location should not be exposed to direct sunlight and

not placed near a heat source, such as an oven, radiator, etc.

If installation next to a heat source is unavoidable, use a suitable

insulating plate or observe the following minimum distances from

the heat source:

1.2" (3 cm) from an electric

cooker,

12" (30 cm) from an oil or

solid fuel cooker.

Installation cavity

It is important to observe the specified dimensions of the installation cavity for a trouble free installation of the appliance and for the subsequent general view of the

Boil or fry the food before

refreezing it.

No longer store the frozen produce for the max. storage period.

When purchasing deep frozen food, comply with the following:

Check whether the packaging is damaged.

Check the sell by date. The temperature of the

supermarket freezer must be lower than O °F (-18 °C). If not, the storage life of the food

is reduced.

Purchase deep-frozen food last. Wrap in newspaper or place in a cold bag and take home.

At home immediately place deep frozen food in the freezer compartment. Use the deep frozen food before the sell by date runs out.

Freezing food yourself

Freeze fresh, undamaged food only. To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place in airtight

containers. Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible.

How to wrap food

correctly

E_ Place the food in the wrapping. E_ Press out all the air.

lceMaker

As soon as the freezer has cooled down to freezing temperature, the

ice cube tray fills with water. Cold air is blown directly over the tray.

As soon as they are frozen, the ice cubes fall into the ice cube

container. When the ice cube container is full,

the ice maker switches off automatically.

The ice maker can produce approx.

100 ice cubes within 24 hours.

Do not place any bottles or food for rapid cooling in the ice cube container. The ice maker may

become blocked and be damaged.

Switching on the ice

maker

C3 Make sure that the ice cube

container is under the ice maker and has been inserted as far as

possible.

[3 Press the ICE button (if not yet

switched on).

Switching off the ice

maker

[_The water supply line must be

shut off several hours before the appliance or ice maker is

switched off.

To switch off the ice maker: C3 Pressthe ICE button.

Do the ice cubes have

an unusual odor?

Ice is a porous material which can

absorb odors from the environment.

Ice cubes which have been in the ice

cube container for a tong time may absorb such odors, stick together and slowly become smaller.

We recommend that these ice cubes are no longer used.

Other means of preventing odors:

The ice cube container should be cleaned occasionally with

warm water. Make sure that you switch off the ice maker before

cleaning the container. Rinse out and wipe dry.

Check the contents of the freezer for spoilt or out of date

food. All odorous foods should be wrapped thoroughly or

stored in airtight containers to prevent the build up of odors.

The water filter may have to be replaced in some models.

In some cases the quality of the water connection in the house should be checked.

Operating

noises

Quite normal noises

Grumbling refrigerating unit is running. Fan in the recirculating air

system is running. Bubbling, humming or gurgling

noises refrigerant is flowing

through the tubes.

Clicking motor is switching on or off. Solenoid valve on the water

connection is opening/closing. Rumbling - ice cubes are falling into

the ice cube container.

Noises which can

easily be eliminated

The appliance is not level

Level the appliance with the aid of a spirit level.
