Ambient temperature

The appliance is designed for a specific

climate class. Depending on the climate

class, the appliance can be operated at

the following temperatures.

The climate class can be found on

the rating plate. Fig. 0

This appliance is identified

according to the European

guideline 2002/96/EC on waste

electrical and electronic

equipment – WEEE. The directive

specifies the framework for an

EU-wide valid return and re-use

of old appliances.



Climate class Permitted ambient

temperature

SN +10 °C to 32 °C

N+16 °C to 32 °C

ST +16 °C to 38 °C

T+16 °C to 43 °C

Note

The appliance is fully functional within

the room temperature limits

of the indicated climatic class. If

an appliance of climatic class SN

is operated at colder room temperatures,

the appliance will not be damaged up to

a temperature of +5 °C.

Ventilation

Fig. 3

The air on the rear

panel of the appliance heats up.

Conduction of the heated air must

not be obstructed. Otherwise,

the refrigerating unit must work harder.

This increases power consumption.

Therefore: Never cover or block

the ventilation openings!

Connecting

the appliance

After installing the appliance, wait at least

1 hour until the appliance is switched on.

During transportation the oil in

the compressor may have flowed into

the refrigeration system.

Before switching on the appliance for

the first time, clean the interior of

the appliance (see chapter “Cleaning

the appliance”).

Electrical connection

The socket must be near the appliance

and also freely accessible following

installation of the appliance.

The appliance complies with the

protection class I. Connect the appliance

to 220–240 V/50 Hz alternating current

via a correctly installed socket with

protective conductor. The socket must

be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.

For appliances operated in non-

European countries, check whether the

stated voltage and current type match

the values of your mains supply match

the values of the mains supply. This

information can be found on the rating

plate. Fig. 0

ã=Warning

Never connect the appliance

to electronic energy saver plugs.

Our appliances can be used with mains

and sine-controlled inverters. Mains-

controlled inverters are used

for photovoltaic systems which

are connected directly to the national

grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be

used for isolated applications (e.g. on

ships or in mountain lodges) which are

not connected directly to the national

grid.

Perishable food should not be stored

warmer than +4 °C.

Freezer compartment

The temperature in the freezer

compartment depends on

the temperature in the refrigerator

compartment.

Lower temperatures in the refrigerator

compartment also cause lower

temperatures in the freezer

compartment.

Usable capacity

Information on the usable capacity can

be found inside your appliance on

the rating plate. Fig. 0

Refrigerator

compartment

The refrigerator compartment is the ideal

storage location for ready meals, cakes

and pastries, preserved food, condensed

milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables

sensitive to cold as well as tropical fruit.

Note when loading products:

Wrap or cover food before placing in

the appliance. This will retain the aroma,

colour and freshness of the food. In

addition, flavours will not be transferred

between foods and the plastic parts will

not become discoloured.

Note

Avoid contact between food and rear

panel. Otherwise the air circulation will

be impaired.

Food or packaging could freeze to

the rear panel.

Note the chill zones in

the refrigerator compartment!

The air circulation in the refrigerator

compartment creates different chill

zones:

■Coldest zone is in the pull-out

container. Fig. 4

Note

Store perishable food (e.g. fish,

sausage, meat) in the coldest zones.

■Warmest zone is at the very top of

the door.

Note

Store e.g. cheese and butter in

the warmest zone. When served,

the cheese will not have lost its flavour

and the butter will be easy to spread.

Super cooling

Super cooling cools the refrigerator

compartment as cold as possible for

approx. 2½ days. Then the appliance

automatically switches to

the temperature set prior to super

cooling mode.

Switch on super cooling mode, e.g.:

■before placing large quantities of food

in the refrigerator compartment.

■to cool drinks quickly.

Switching on and off

Fig. 2

Keep pressing the temperature selection

button 4 until the Super display 3 is lit.

Super cooling automatically switches off

after approx. 2½ days.

Freezer compartment

Use the freezer compartment

■To store deep-frozen food.

■To make ice cubes.

■To freeze food.

Note

Ensure that the freezer compartment

door has been closed properly. If

the door is open, the frozen food will

thaw. The freezer compartment will

become covered in thick ice. Also: waste

of energy due to high power

consumption!

Purchasing frozen food

■Packaging must not be damaged.

■Use by the “use by” date.

■Temperature in the supermarket

freezer must be -18 °C or lower.

■If possible, transport deep-frozen food

in an insulated bag and place quickly

in the freezer compartment.

Max. freezing capacity

Information about the max. freezing

capacity within 24 hours can be found

on the rating plate. Fig. 0

Freezing and storing

food

Freezing food

Freeze fresh, undamaged food only.

Keep food which is to be frozen away

from food which is already frozen.

To prevent food from losing its flavour

or drying out, place in airtight containers.

Storing frozen food

To ensure good air circulation in

the appliance, insert the frozen food

container all the way.

If you have to store lots of food, it is

possible to transfer the food to the glass

shelves and stack it on the base of

the freezer base. To do this, remove all

the frozen food containers. Pull out

the frozen food containers all the way, lift

at the front and remove. Fig. 5

Freezing fresh food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.

To retain the best possible nutritional

value, flavour and colour, vegetables

should be blanched before freezing.

Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and

asparagus do not require blanching.

Literature on freezing and blanching

can be found in bookshops.

Note

Keep food which is to be frozen away

from food which is already frozen.

■The following foods are suitable for

freezing:

Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood,

meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit,

herbs, eggs without shells, dairy

products such as cheese, butter and

quark, ready meals and leftovers such

as soups, stews, cooked meat and

fish, potato dishes, soufflés and

desserts.

■The following foods are not suitable

for freezing:

Types of vegetables, which are usually

consumed raw, such as lettuce or

radishes, eggs in shells, grapes,

whole apples, pears and peaches,

hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured

milk, sour cream, crème fraîche and

mayonnaise.

Packing frozen food

To prevent food from losing its flavour

or drying out, place in airtight containers.

1. Place food in packaging.

2. Remove air.

3. Seal the wrapping.

4. Label packaging with contents

and date of freezing.

Suitable packaging:

Plastic film, tubular film

made of polyethylene, aluminium foil,

freezer containers.

These products are available

from specialist outlets.

Unsuitable packaging:

Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper,

cellophane, bin liners and used

shopping bags.

Items suitable for sealing packaged

food:

■Fish, sausage, ready meals and cakes

and pastries:

up to 6 months

■Cheese, poultry and meat:

up to 8 months

■Vegetables and fruit:

up to 12 months

Super freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly

as possible in order to retain vitamins,

nutritional value, appearance and flavour.

To prevent an undesirable temperature

rise when placing fresh food in

the freezer compartment, switch on

super freezing several hours beforehand.

As a rule, 4–6 hours is adequate.
