1 Safety Instructions
The safety of our appliances is in accordance with recognised techno-
logical standards and appliance safety legislation. We nevertheless feel
that it is important to acquaint you with the following safety guidelines:
Use for Intended Purpose
• The appliance is intended for use at home. Depending on the preset
operation mode, this appliance becomes suitable for freezing, for fro-
zen storage of foods, for ice preparation or for cooling of foods. The
manufacturer assumes no liability for damages occurring through
improper operation or use of the appliance for unintended purposes.
• Alterations or changes to the appliance are not permitted for reasons
of safety.
• Do not use this appliance in a commercial environment or for purpo-
ses other than freezing, or frozen storage of foods or for cooling of
foods.
Prior to initial start-up
• Check the appliance for transport damage. Do not under any
circumstances connect a damaged appliance! Please contact your
supplier in the event of damage.
Refrigerant
The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant
circuit of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of
environmental compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable.
•Warning - During transportation and installation of the appliance,
be certain that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit
become damaged.
• If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:
– avoid open flames and sources of ignition;
– thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.
Safety for Children
• Packaging materials (e.g. films, styrofoam) can be dangerous for
children. Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging materials away from
children!
• Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable. Remove
plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any snap
or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing children lock

themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place
themselves into other life-endangering situations.
• Children often do not recognise the dangers involved with household
appliances. Please provide for the necessary supervision and do not
allow children to play with the appliance!
Daily Operation
• Containers with flammable gases or fluids can develop leaks through
contact with the cold. Danger of explosion! Do not store containers
with flammable substances, such as aerosol cans, refill cartridges for
cigarette lighters etc. in the appliance.
• Bottles and cans may not be placed in the freezer compartment. They
can burst when the contents freeze - or even explode if the contents
contain carbonic acid! Never place sodas, juices, beer, wine,
champagne etc. into the freezer compartment. Exception: Spirits with
high alcohol content may be stored in the freezer compartment.
• Do not place ice cream or ice cubes directly from the freezer
compartment into the mouth. Very cold ice can freeze to the lips or
tongue and cause injury.
• Never touch frozen goods with wet hands. Hands can freeze to the
goods.
•Warning - Do not operate any electrical appliances in the appliance
(e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).
•Warning - Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings as this
will impair the operation of the appliance.
•Warning - Do not use any mechanical devices or other artificial
means to speed up defrosting unless they are recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Before cleaning the appliance switch off and remove the plug from
the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
• Placing frozen goods on the top of the appliance can lead to the
accumulation of condensation on the top panel through contact with
the cold. Electronic components are housed within this top panel. If
water should drip onto these components, the appliance could be
damaged by a short circuit. For this reason do not place frozen goods
on top of the appliance.
• When unplugging always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not
pull on the cable.

7
In case of malfunction
• If a malfunction should occur at the appliance, refer first to the
section "What to do if ..." in these operating instruction. If the
instructions in this section are not sufficient, do not undertake any
further work on your own.
• Refrigerators or feezers may only be repaired by trained personnel.
Repairs carried out by untrained personnel can lead to substantial
danger. Please contact your dealer or our customer service
department for repairs.
Disposal
Appliance Packaging Information
Dispose of the packaging material of your appliance correctly. All the
packaging materials used are harmless to the environment and can be
recycled.
About the materials: The plastics can be recycled and are identified as
follows:
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the
interior.
>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are all free of
chlorofluorocarbon.
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be disposed
of at a waste-paper recycling collection location.
Disposal of old Appliances
For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be disposed
of properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of its
service life - for your new appliance as well.
1
Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable.
Remove plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any
snap or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing children
lock themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place
themselves into other life-endangering situations.
Disposal:
• The appliance may not be disposed of with domestic waste or bulky
refuse.
• The refrigerant circuit, especially the condenser at the back of the
appliance, must not be damaged.
• Information concerning collection schedules or locations can be
obtained from the local disposal authorities or town hall.

Installation Location
The appliance should be installed in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by
the ambient temperature.
The appliance should therefore
– not be exposed to direct sunlight;
– not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
– only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature
corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is
designed.
The climate classification can be found on the rating plate, which is
located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The subsequent table shows which ambient temperature is assigned to
which climate class if the operation mode "Freezing" is selected:
Attention! If the operation mode "Cooling" is selected, the ambient
temperature at the installation place must be at least 2 °C higher than
the preset DESIRED temperature.
Climate classification for an ambient temperature of
SN +10 to +32 °C
N+16 to +32 °C
ST +18 to +38 °C
T+18 to +43 °C

The appliance needs ventilation
Air is fed under the door through the
vent slots in the base and is vented
upwards along the back wall. To
ensure proper air circulation never
cover or alter the vent openings.
Attention! If the appliance is
installed under, for example, a
hanging cabinet, a clearance of at
least 10 cm between the top of the
appliance and the cabinet above it
must be maintained.
01. Break both wall spacing elements
from the plinth and insert them into
the sockets at the back side of the
appliance, according to the figure,
so that the required wall gap for the
necessary ventilation at the back of
the appliance is provided for.

01. The appliance must have a solid, level footing. Please compensate for
unevenness in the floor by turning the two adjustable feet at the front
in or out.

Installation
11
Electrical Connection
A properly installed socket outlet with earthing contact is required for
electrical connection. Electrical fuse protection must be of at least 10
ampere.
If the outlet socket is no longer accessible after installation of the
appliance, appropriate measures must be taken during electrical
installation to assure that the appliance can be disconnected from the
mains (e.g. fuse, circuit breaker, non-operate current safety-switch or
the like, with a contact opening of at least 3 mm).
01. Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain if
supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the mains
at the installation location.
e.g.: AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or
220 ... 240 V~ 50 Hz
(i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz)
The rating plate is inside the appliance at the left.
Warning: To avoid potential danger, if the mains connection lead of
this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by our customer service
representative or a person with similar qualifications.
Warning: Under no circumstances should the appliance be connected
to electronic “power saving plugs” or to a.c.-d.c. converters which con-
vert direct current to 230 V alternating current (e.g., solar installations,
ship networks)

The most important characteristic
of your appliance
• The appliance can be used as a freezing unit or as a refrigerator
depending on requirement. For this purpose, the operation mode
"Freezing" or the operation mode "Cooling" can be selected on the
appliance.
–Intheoperation mode "Freezing", the appliance is usable for
freezing and deep-temperature storage with temperatures from
-15 °C up to -24 °C.
–Intheoperation mode "Cooling", this appliance can be operated as
a "long fresh" cooling unit with temperatures of 0 °C to +2 °C,
whereby a dry cabinet interior climate is attained through the no-
frost (frost-free) technology. The appliance can also be used in the
adjustable temperature range of up to +16 °C as a chilled cupboard
for food and drink. Naturally, it is also usable as a "normal"
refrigerator for the temperature range of +2 °C to +5 °C.
• COOLMATIC/FROSTMATIC can be selected depending on purpose and
need.
–TheCOOLMATIC function is suitable for fast cooling larger
quantities when in the refrigerator mode, e.g. for drinks or salads
during a party.
Thereby, a DESIRED temperature of +2 °C is automatically preset.
After 6 hours have expired, the COOLMATIC function is terminated
automatically.
–TheFROSTMATIC function caters for quick freezing of fresh
foodstuffs and protects at the same time the foodstuff already
stored against undesired temperature increase when in the freezer
mode. The electronics of the appliance recognises automatically,
when the quick freezing mode can be completed, and automatically
switches off the FROSTMATIC function.(Depending upon the
quantity to be frozen after 30 up to maximum 51 hours).
•Theno-frost (frost free) system enables both the freezing of fresh
foodstuff as well as the storage of readily frozen or cooled foodstuff
by cold air. An evaporator cools the air in the interior space of the
appliance, which is circulated and uniformly distributed by a
ventilator. This uniformly circulating air-flow creates for a dry
climate, low temperature fluctuations and low temperature
differences in the entire appliance interior. The moisture in the air
condenses as frost on the evaporator. The evaporator thaws/defrosts -
automatically, as soon as this is necessary. The melted water is

17
drained off outside to the compressor and evaporates through the
heat generated by the latter. Thus, the interior of the appliance and
the stored cooled or frozen foodstuffs always remain fresh and ice-
free. Manual thawing/defrosting is not necessary.

Freezer tray
A freezing tray is inserted in the middle of the appliance’s interior.
3 Berries, for example, can be pre-frozen on the freezer tray. Advantage:
The berries are not squashed and maintain their natural form. The
frozen berries can then be stored in compartments or drawers packaged
in individual portions.
The freezing tray also serves for accommodating small frozen food-
stuffs (e.g. herbal produce), furthermore you can accommodate ice
cube shells.
Quick door-opener
The quick door-opener enables
easy opening through its
integrated opening mechanism.
Please observe that both tappets
(A) always interlock in the fold
of door seal, according to the
figure.
Interior Illumination
The illumination switches on automatically when the appliance door is
opened. By closing the appliance door it is automatically switched off.
3 If the appliance door remains open for more than 5 minutes, the
interior illumination starts to blink and then switches off automatically
in order to save energy.
If directly after opening the door the interior illumination is not
glowing although the appliance is in operation (recognisable through
the green mains control indicator), the lamp is defective. Replacement
procedure is described in the "Replacing the light bulb" chapter.
