9 CAUTION!
To reduce the risks associated with property
damage due to water leakage:
■Read and follow user instructions before
installation and use of this system.
■Installation and use must comply with all state
and local plumbing codes.
■Do not install if water pressure exceeds
120 psi/827 kPa. If your water pressure
exceeds 80 psi, you must install a pressure
limiting valve.
■Contact a plumbing professional if you are
uncertain how to check your water pressure.
■Do not install where water hammer conditions
may occur. If water hammer conditions exist,
you must install a water hammer arrester.
Contact a plumbing professional if you are
uncertain how to check for this condition.
■Do not install on hot water supply lines. The
maximum operating water temperature of this
filter system is 100 °F (38 °C).
■Protect filter from freezing. Drain filter when
temperatures drop below 33 °F (1 °C).

URefrigerator
compartment
Refr i ger at or compart ment
The refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing
meat, sausages, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready
meals and pastries.
The temperature can be set from +36 °F (+2 °C)...
+46 °F (+8 °C).
The refrigerator compartment can also be used to
store highly perishable groceries 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 +37 °F (+4 °C) or lower ensures optimum
freshness and safety of the stored groceries.
Note when storing food
Note: Avoid contact between food and the back
panel.
Otherwise, the air circulation will be impaired and
food or packaging may freeze to the back panel.
■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 useby date indicated by the manufacturer.
■To retain aroma, color and freshness, pack
or cover food well before placing it into the
appliance.
This will prevent flavors being transferred
between foods and the plastic parts from
becoming discolored.
■Leave warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing them into the refrigerator compartment.
MAlarm
Al a r m
Door alarm
If the appliance door is open for a long time, the
door alarm (continuous audible signal) switches on.
■Close door.
The audible warning signal is switched off.
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 in the interior at the back panel
and in the chill compartment.
Note: Store delicate 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
aroma and the butter will still be easy to spread.

en-us Freezer compartment
Vegetable container with humidity
controller
The vegetable container is the optimum storage
location for fresh fruit and vegetables.You can adjust
the humidity in the vegetable container via the
humidity controller and a special seal. This allows
fresh fruit and vegetables to be stored up to twice as
long as with conventional storage.
The humidity in the vegetable container can be set
according to the type and quantity of products to be
stored:
■Mainly fruit as well as for a large load – set lower
humidity with controller position FRUIT
■Mainly vegetables as well as for a mixed or small
load – set higher humidity with controller position
VEGETABLES
Notes
■For optimum preservation of quality and flavor
store fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple,
banana, papaya and citrus fruit) and vegetables
sensitive to cold (e.g. eggplant, cucumbers,
zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes)
outside of the appliance at temperatures of
approx. +46 °F (+8 °C) ... +54 °F (+12 °C).
■Condensation may form in the vegetable
container depending on the type and quantity of
products stored.
Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust
the humidity in the vegetable container with the
humidity controller.
Chill compartment
The chill compartment has lower temperatures than
the refrigerator compartment. Temperatures below
+32 °F (0 °C) may occur.
Ideal for storing fish, meat and sausage. Not suitable
for salads, vegetables and groceries sensitive to
cold.
The temperature in the chill compartment can be
adjusted.
WFreezer compartment
Fr e ez er compart ment
The freezer compartment is suitable for:
■storing frozen food
■making ice cubes
■freezing food
The temperature can be set from -11 °F (24 °C)... +7 °F (-14 °C).
The freezer compartment can be used to store
perishable foods long-term almost without any
noticeable reduction in quality, as the low
temperatures considerably slow down or stop
deterioration. Appearance, flavor and all valuable
ingredients are largely retained.
The time between putting fresh food in the freezer
compartment and it freezing solid depends on the
following factors:
■temperature set
■type of food
■amount of food in the freezer compartment
■quantity and type of storage
Fully utilizing the freezer volume
To place the maximum quantity of frozen food in the
freezer compartment:
■Remove all fittings.
■Store food directly on the shelves and on the floor
of the freezer compartment.
Purchasing frozen food
■Ensure the packaging is not damaged.
■Do not exceed the sell-by date.
■Temperature in the supermarket freezer must be
0 °F (-18 °C) or lower.
■If possible, transport frozen food in a cool bag
and place quickly in the freezer compartment.
20
When loading products
■Freeze large quantities of food in the top
compartment.
This is where it will freeze especially quickly and
gently.
■Distribute food in the compartments or frozen
food containers.
■Do not bring food which is to be frozen into
contact with frozen food.
If required, restack frozen food in the frozen food
containers.
■Important for unrestricted air circulation in the
appliance:
push in frozen food containers up to the limit
stop.
Freezer compartment en-us
Freezing fresh food
Freeze only fresh and undamaged food.
Food which is boiled, fried or baked is more suitable
for freezing than food which is eaten raw.
Before freezing food, make preparations appropriate
to the food in order to retain the best possible
nutritional value, flavor and color:
■Vegetables: wash, chop, blanch.
■Fruit: wash, pit and perhaps peel, possibly add
sugar or ascorbic acid solution.
Information on how to do this can be found in
relevant literature.
Suitable for freezing
■Baked goods
■Fish and seafood
■Meat
■Poultry and game
■Vegetables, fruit and herbs
■Eggs without shells
■Dairy products, e.g. cheese, butter and quark
■Ready meals and leftovers, e.g. soups, stews,
cooked meat and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and
desserts

■Types of vegetables which are usually eaten raw,
e.g. lettuce or radishes
■Unpeeled or hard-boiled eggs
■Grapes
■Whole apples, pears and peaches
■Yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, creme fraiche
and mayonnaise
Packing frozen food
The correct type of packaging and material selection
are decisive factors in the retention of the product
quality and prevent the development of freezer burn.
Suitable closures:
■Rubber bands
■Plastic clips
■Cold-resistant adhesive tape
Unsuitable packaging:
■Wrapping paper
■Greaseproof paper
■Cellophane
■Garbage bags and used grocery bags
Shelf life of frozen food at 0 °F (-18 °C)
Fish, sausage, ready meals, and cakes
up to 6 months
and pastries:
Meat, poultry:up to 8 months
Vegetables, fruit:up to 12 months
Thawing frozen food
The thawing method must be adjusted to the food
and application in order to retain the best possible
product quality.
Thawing methods:
■in the refrigerator compartment (especially
suitable for animal-based foods such as fish,
meat, cheese, quark)
■at room temperature (bread)
■in the microwave (food for immediate
consumption or immediate preparation)
■in the oven/cooker (food for immediate
consumption or immediate preparation)
9 CAUTION!
Do not refreeze partly or completely thawed
food. You can only refreeze food once it has
been cooked (boiled or fried).
The frozen food can no longer be stored for the
maximum duration.
1. Place food in packaging.
2. Remove air.
3. Pack food airtight to prevent it from losing flavor
or drying out.
4. Label packaging with contents and date of
freezing.
Suitable packaging:
■Plastic foil
