at cold ambient conditions such as
10 °C.
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
You can stop operation of your
appliance by turning the thermostat
knob to “0” position.
Please note that there will be
different temperatures in the cooling
area.
Warm Cold
1 2 3 4 5
(Or) Min. Max.
The coldest region is immediately
above the vegetable compartment on
crisper cover.
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
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
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
given on the packaging of your food.
• Attention
Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the
bottle may burst when the liquid in it
is frozen.
Be careful with frozen products such
as coloured ice-cubes.
In order to maintain the quality of the
food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
• Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food
always separated with freshly placed
food.
EN
16
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.
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.
Never use sharp objects such as
knives or forks to remove the ice
cubes. There is a risk of injury!
Let the ice cubes slightly thaw
instead, or put the bottom of the tray
in hot water for a short moment.
Defrosting of 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
at the freezing compartment
and frozen food compartment
Keep the door open during
defrosting.
For quicker defrosting, place
containers with warm water inside
the appliance.
Never use electrical devices,
defrosting sprays or pointed or sharp-
edged objects such as knives or forks
to remove the ice.
After the defrosting is done, clean
interior walls of the compartment.
EN
17
Reconnect the appliance to the
mains. Place the frozen food into the
drawers and slide the drawers into the
freezer.
Cooling
Food storage
The fridge compartment is for the
short-term storage of fresh food and
drinks.
Store milk products in the intended
compartment in the cooler/freezer.
Bottles can be stored in the bottle
holder or in the bottle shelf of the
door.
Raw meat is best kept in a
polyethylene bag in the compartment
at the very bottom of the cooler/
freezer.
Allow hot food and beverages to cool
to room temperature prior to placing
them in the cooler/freezer.
• Attention
Store concentrated alcohol in a
container only standing upright and
tightly closed.
• Attention
Do not store explosive substances or
containers with flammable propellant
gases (canned cream, spray cans etc.)
in the appliance.
There is a danger of explosion.
Defrosting of the appliance
The fridge compartment defrosts
automatically. The thawing water
flows through the drain channel into a
collection container at the back of the
appliance.
During defrosting, water droplets
form at the back wall of the fridge due
to the evaporation.
If not all of the drops run down, they
may freeze again after defrosting
completes. Remove them with a soft
cloth dampened with warm water. Do
not use hard or sharp objects.
Check the flow of the thawed water
from time to time. It may become
blocked occasionally. Clean it with a
pipe-cleaner or similar implement as
shown below.
EN
18
6 Maintenance and cleaning
A Never use gasoline, benzene or
similar substances for cleaning
purposes.
B We recommend that you unplug the
appliance before cleaning.
B Never use any sharp abrasive
instrument, soap, household
cleaner, detergent and wax polish
for cleaning.
B For non-No Frost products,
water drops and frosting up to a
fingerbreadth occur on the rear wall
of the Fridge compartment. Do not
clean it; never apply oil or similar
