compartment door is opened, the internal
lighting is switched on.
The temperature selector knob is
located on the RH side of the refrigerator
compartment.
Setting “0” means: Off.
Turning clockwise in direction “1”

Setting” 1” means: Highest temperature,
warmest setting.
Setting “7” (end-stop) means: Lowest
temperature, coldest setting.

The temperatures in the refrigerator
compartment and freezer compartment
cannot be independently regulated.
At a low ambient temperature of around
16°C, setting ‘1’ should be selected. At
ambient temperatures of around 25°C ,
select setting ‘2’.
If you require a lower temperature, select
setting ‘3’ or ‘4’. On this setting, you can
be sure the fresh food will be reliably
frozen and that a storage temperature
of -18°C will be maintained in the freezer
compartment. If you want the freeze fresh
food rapidly, select setting ‘7’,ensuring
that the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment does not drop below 0°C.
You should also promptly reset the
temperature regulator to setting ‘3’ or ‘4’.
IMPORTANT! High ambient
temperatures (e.g. on hot
summer days) and a cold setting
on the temperature regulator
(position ‘6’ to ‘7’) can cause the
compressor to run continuously.
Reason: when the ambient temperature
is high, the compressor mustrun
continuously to maintain the low
temperature in the appliance. The fridge
will not be able to defrost since automatic
defrosting of the fridge is only possible
when the compressor is not running
(see also ‘Defrosting’ section). The result
is the build up of a thick layer of frost on
the fridge rear wall.
If this happens, turn the temperature
regulator back to a warmer setting
(position ‘3’ to ‘4’). At this setting the
compressor will be switched on and
off as usual and automatic defrosting
recommenced.
INTERIOR ACCESSORIES
Storage shelves/wire trays
Various glass or plastic storage shelves
and wire trays are included with your
appliancedifferent models have different
combinations. You should always slide
one of the full size glass storage shelves
into the lowest set of guides, above the
fruit and vegetable containers, and keep
it in this position. The height of the storage
shelves can be adjusted:
To do this pull the storage shelf forward
until it can be swivelled upwards or
downwards and removed.
Please do the same in reverse to insert
the shelf at a different height.

FREEZING AND STORING FROZEN FOOD
The freezer compartment is for freezing
and storing food. Important!
IMPORTANT! The temperature
in the freezer compartment must
be -18°C or colder before freezing
food or storing food already
frozen.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any
one time (max. 1kg per 24hrs). The quality
of the food is best preserved when it is
frozen right through to the core as quickly
as possible.
Allow warm food to cool down before
freezing. The warmth will cause increased
ice formation and increase the power
consumption.
Please note the maximum storage times
specified by the manufacturer.
Thawed foods which have not been
processed further (cooked into meals)
may not under any circumstances be
frozen a second time.
Containers with flammable gases or
liquids can leak at low temperatures.
There is a risk of an explosion!
Do not store any containers
with flammable materials such
as spray cans, fire extinguisher
refill cartridges etc in the freezer
compartment.
Bottles and cans must not be placed in
the freezer. They can burst when the
contents freeze, high carbonate content
drinks can even explode! Never store
lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling
wine etc. in the freezer compartment. All
foods must be packed air tight prior to
freezing, so that they do not dry out or
lose their flavour, and so that no flavour
contamination of other frozen goods
occurs.
Tip:
Food in the fridge should always be
covered or packaged, to prevent drying
and tainting of other food.
The following are suited for packaging:
– Polyethylene airtight bags and wraps;
– Plastic containers with lids;
– Special plastic covers with elastic;
– aluminium foil.
CAUTION! Do not touch frozen
food with wet hands. Your hands
could stick to the food and cause
skin abrasions. Lay the packaged
food on the floor of the freezer
compartment. Unfrozen food must
not touch items already frozen,
otherwise the frozen food could
begin to defrost.
Tips:
The following are suited for the packaging
of frozen goods: freezer bags and
polyethylene wraps; special cans for
frozen goods; extra-thick aluminium foil.
The followings are suitable for sealing
bags and wrap: plastic clips, rubber bands
or tape. Smooth the air out of the bag
before sealing; air makes it easier for the
frozen food to dry out.
Make flat packages, because these freeze
more quickly.
Do not fill cans for frozen goods to the
brim with liquid or paste-like goods,
because liquids expand during freezing.
Preparation of ice cubes
Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold
water, place it in the freezer compartment
and leave to freeze. To loosen the frozen
cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or
hold it under running water for a few
seconds.
IMPORTANT! Never try to free an
ice tray that is frozen to the freezer
compartment using pointed or
sharp edged objects, since you
may damage the refrigerating
circuit. Use the plastic scraper.

10
DEFROSTING
CLEANING AND CARE
The fridge defrosts automatically
The rear wall of the fridge covers with
frost when the compressor is running, and
defrosts when the compressor is off. The
water from the thawing frost evaporates
by itself.
Defrosting the freezer
compartment
During use and when the freezer
compartment door is opened, moisture
is deposited in the freezer compartment
as frost. Remove this frost from time to
time with the soft plastic scraper. Under
no circumstances, use hard or pointed
objects to remove frost.
The freezer compartment should always
be defrosted when the layer of frost
has reached a thickness of approx.
4 millimetres; however at least once a
year. A good time for defrosting is when
the appliance is empty or contains only
little food.
WARNING! Do not use electrical
heating appliances or any other
mechanical or artificial devices to
speed up the defrosting process,
with the exception of those
recommended in these operating
instructions.
Do not use defrosting sprays, they can be
hazardous to your health and/or contain
substances that damage plastics.
For hygienic reasons the appliance
interior, including interior accessories,
should be cleaned regularly.
WARNING! The appliance may
not be connected to the mains
during cleaning. Danger of
electrical shock! Before cleaning
switch the appliance off and
remove the plug from the mains,
or switch off or turn out the circuit
breaker or fuse.
CAUTION! Do not touch frozen
food with wet hands. Your hands
could stick to the food and cause
skin abrasions.
Remove frozen food, wrap it in several
layers of newspaper and store it, covered,
in a cool place. Switch off the appliance
and unplug it, or pull the fuse or switch off
the circuit breaker.
Tip:
You can speed up the defrosting water in
the freezer compartment and closing the
doors. Remove pieces of ice that have
fallen before they completely defrost. After
defrosting, thoroughly clean the freezer
compartment (see “Cleaning and Care”
section).
Switching off the appliance
To switch off the appliance, turn the
temperature regulator to position “0”.
If the appliance is not going to
be used for an extended period:
Remove all refrigerated packages. Switch
off the appliance by turning the temperature
regulator to position “0”. Remove the
mains plug or switch off or turn out the
circuit breaker or fuse. Clean thoroughly
(see section “cleaning and Care”).
Leave the door open to avoid the build
up of odour.
Never clean the appliance with a steam
cleaner. Moisture could accumulate in
electrical components, danger of electrical
shock! Hot vapour can lead to the damage
of plastic parts.
The appliance must be dry before it is
placed back into service.
IMPORTANT! Ethereal oils and
organic solvents can attack plastic
parts, e.g. lemon juice or the
juice from orange peel; butyric

11
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Do not install the appliance near cookers,
radiators or other sources of warmth. High
ambient temperatures cause longer, more
frequent operation of the compressor.
Ensure sufficient air circulation and
exhaust at the appliance base and at the
back wall of the appliance.
Never cover air vent openings.
Do not place warm foods into the
appliance. Allow warm foods to cool first.
Only leave door open as long as
necessary.
acid; cleansers which contain
acetic acid. Do not allow such
substances to come into contact
with appliance parts. Do not use
any abrasive cleansers.
Remove frozen food and the food from
the refrigerator. Wrap frozen food in
several layers of newspaper. Store it in
a cool place, well covered. Defrost the
freezer compartment prior to cleaning
(see “Defrosting” section).
Switch the appliance off and remove the
plug from the mains, or switch off or turn
out the circuit breaker or fuse.
Clean the appliance and the interior
accessories with a cloth and lukewarm
water. Commercially available dish
washing detergents may also be used.
After cleaning wipe with fresh water and
rub dry.
Accumulation of dust at the condenser
increases energy consumption. For this
reason carefully clean the condenser at
the back of the appliance once a year with
a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
Check the water drain hole on the rear
wall of the fridge. After everything is dry
place appliance back into service.
Do not set temperature any colder than
necessary.
