5. You will hear a noise as the
compressor starts up. The liquid and
gases sealed within the refrigeration
system may also give rise to noise,
even if the compressor is not running
and this is quite normal.
6. The front edges of the fridge/freezer
may feel warm. This is normal. These
areas are designed to be warm to
avoid condensation.

Adjusting the legs
If your refrigerator is unbalanced
you can balance your fridge/freezer
by turning the front legs as shown in

leg exists is lowered when you turn in
the direction of black arrow and raised
when you turn in the opposite direction.
Getting help from someone to slightly
lift the fridge/freezer will facilitate this
process.

CFor a freestanding appliance; this
refrigerating appliance is not intended
to be used as a built-in appliance.
C Your fridge/freezer should be installed
at least 30 cm away from heat
sources such as hobs, ovens, central
heater and stoves and at least 5 cm
away from electrical ovens and should
not be located under direct sunlight.
CThe ambient temperature of the room
where you install your fridge/freezer
should at least be 10°C. Operating
your fridge/freezer under cooler
conditions is not recommended with
regard to its efficiency.
CPlease make sure that the interior
of your fridge/freezer is cleaned
thoroughly.
CIf you want to place two products
side by side, e.g. a refrigerator and a
freezer, as a side by side solution you
have to use a decoration kit which
contains a small mat and a decoration
part. The mat is mounted on the side
of one of the products to create a
space between the products. The
decoration part is placed between the
products to hide the gap between the
products (Fig. 2). The decoration kit is
not a part of the product but can be
delivered as an accessory.
4Preparation
CWhen you operate your fridge/freezer
for the first time, please observe the
following instructions during the initial
six hour.
- The door should not be opened
frequently.
- It must be operated empty without
any food in it.
- Do not unplug your fridge/freezer. If
a power failure occurs out of your
control, please see the warnings in

(Coldest setting)
The average temperature inside the
fridge/freezer should be around +5°C.
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
You can stop the operation of your
appliance by turning the thermostat
control to the "0" position.
Please note that there will be different
temperatures in the cooling area.
The coldest area is just above the
vegetable compartment.
The interior temperature also depends
on ambient temperature, the frequency
with which the door is opened and the
amount of food kept inside.

Frequently opening the door causes

For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
Freezing
Freezing food
The freezing compartment is marked
with this symbol.
You can use the appliance for freezing
fresh food as well as for storing pre-
frozen food.
Please refer to the recommendations
on the packaging of your food.


In order to maintain the quality of the
food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not be
exceeded, and the temperature inside
the freezer will not rise.

Always keep the already deep-frozen
food separated from fresh food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the
cooling compressor will work until the
food is completely frozen. This can
temporarily cause excessive cooling of
the refrigeration compartment.

EN

If you find the freezer door difficult
to open just after you have closed it,
don’t worry. This is due to the pressure
difference which will equalize and allow
the door to open normally after a few
minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just after
closing the door. This is quite normal.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with water
and place it in the freezer.
As soon as the water has turned into
ice, you can take out the ice cubes.

knives or forks to remove the ice cubes.
There is a risk of injury!
Instead let the ice cubes slightly thaw
or place the bottom of the tray in hot
water for a short moment.
Defrosting the appliance
Excessive build-up of ice will affect the
freezing performance of your device.
It is therefore recommended that you
defrost your appliance at least twice
a year, or whenever the ice build-up
exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your device when there is only
little or no food in it.
Take out the deep-frozen food. Wrap
the deep-frozen food in several layers
of paper, or a blanket, and keep it in a
cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch off the
circuit breaker to start the defrosting
process.
Take out the accessories (like shelf,
drawer etc.) from the appliance and
use a suitable container to collect the
thawing water.
Use a sponge or a soft cloth to
remove thawing water if necessary in
the freezing compartment and frozen
food compartment
Keep the door open during defrosting.
For quicker defrosting place containers
with warm water inside the appliance.

Defrosting the appliance
The fridge compartment defrosts

evaporation.
If not all of the drops run down,
they may freeze again after defrosting
