Switching on the appliance

Plug the power plug into the electrical outlet socket. The appliance will start cooling. When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the alarm function is deactivated until the appliance has reached the set temperature. If the appliance is switched off for an extended period, the temperature alarm may be triggered when it is first switched on again.

The temperatures flash and the display panels show the "alarm" symbol until the appliance has reached the set temperatures. By pressing the "Alarm off/Lock" button the temperature warning is switched off. The lights come on when the appliance doors are opened.

The following temperatures are recommended by the manufacturer and pre-set at the factory:

■ Fridge compartment 37 °F (3 °C)

■ Freezer compartment 0 °F (-18 °C)

Notes on using the appliance

■ After switching on the appliance, it may be several hours before the set temperatures are reached. Do not put any food in the appliance before then.

■ Thanks to the fully automatic NoFrost system, the freezer compartment remains free of ice. Defrosting is not required.

■ Some of the casing end faces are slightly heated to prevent condensation forming in the door seal area.

■ If you cannot open the freezer compartment door again immediately after closing it, wait a moment for the low pressure created to equalize.

Setting the temperature

Fridge compartment

The temperature can be adjusted between 33 °F (1 °C) up to 45 °F (7 °C). Repeatedly press the "fridge/super +" or "fridge/super –" button until the desired fridge compartment temperature is set.

The temperature last set is saved. The set temperature is shown on the fridge compartment display panel.

Freezer compartment

The temperature can be adjusted between 3 °F (-16 °C) up to -7 °F (-22 °C). Repeatedly press the "freezer/super +" or "freezer/super –" button until the desired freezer compartment temperature is set.

The temperature last set is saved. The set temperature is shown on the freezer compartment display panel.

Fast cooling function

Super cooling cools the refrigerator compartment down as low as possible for approximately 40 minutes. The temperature is then automatically reset to 37 °F (3 °C). Super cooling is particularly recommended for the following:

■ Before placing large quantities of food in the refrigerator compartment.

■ To cool drinks quickly.

Note: When fast cooling is switched on, the appliance may make more noise.

Switching on

Switching off

Press the "fridge/super +" button.

Note: The display panel no longer shows "super". The temperature setting automatically reverts to 37 °F (3 °C).

Fast freezing function

Food should be frozen thoroughly as quickly as possible. This ensures that vitamins, nutritional values, the look and the taste of the food is retained. Switch on fast freezing a few hours before placing fresh food in the freezer in order to prevent a drop in temperature.

In general, 4 - 6 hours is sufficient. When the function is switched on, the appliance operates continuously. As a result, a very cold temperature in the freezer compartment is achieved. Fast freezing automatically switches off after about 48 hours.

If the maximum freezing capacity is to be used, fast freezing should be switched on 24 hours before placing the fresh food in the freezer. Small quantities of food for freezing (up to 4.5 lb (2 kg)) can be frozen without using the fast freezing function.

Note: When fast freezing is switched on, the appliance may make more noise.

Switching on

Press the "freezer/super -" button until "super" appears on the left on the display panel.

The symbol will then stop flashing.

Usable capacity

You will find the details of the usable capacity on the rating plate inside the appliance.

Using the entire freezing capacity

To accommodate the maximum quantity of frozen food, you can remove all of the fittings from inside the appliance. You can then stack the food directly on the shelves and the bottom of the freezer compartment. How to remove and refit the fittings is described in the section headed Fittings.

Fridge compartment

The fridge compartment is the perfect place for keeping ready meals, bread and pastries, jams and preserves, condensed milk and hard cheeses.

When placing food in the fridge, follow these guidelines:

  • Keep fresh, untouched food in the fridge. In that way it will keep longer and stay fresher.
  • In the case of ready-made products and packaged foods and liquids, pay attention to the manufacturer's specified best-before or use-by date.
  • In order to maintain flavor, color and freshness, keep food well packed or covered over. That also prevents flavors from mixing and the plastic parts from becoming discolored in the fridge compartment.
  • Allow warm food and beverages to cool before putting them into the appliance.

Note:

Keep food from coming into contact with the rear panel. Otherwise, the air circulation will be impaired. Food or packaging could also become frozen to the rear panel.

Pay attention to the temperature zones in the fridge compartment

The air circulation produces different temperature zones in the fridge compartment:

  • The coldest zones are close to the rear panel.
  • The warmest zone is at the very top of the door.

Note:

Keep items such as hard cheese and butter in the warmest zone. That will allow the cheese to continue developing its flavor and the butter will remain spreadable.

Freezer compartment

WARNING Risk of explosion! Never store products containing flammable propellants (such as spray cans) or explosive or easily combustible substances in the appliance.

NOTICE Make sure that the freezer compartment door is always kept closed. The frozen food will thaw if the freezer compartment door is open. The freezer compartment will become covered with thick ice. Also: Energy will be lost due to high power consumption. When the freezer compartment door is closed, low pressure occurs inside the compartment. If you cannot reopen the freezer compartment door right away, wait two to three minutes until the low pressure has adjusted itself.

Use the freezer compartment to

■ store deep-frozen food

■ freeze food

■ make and store ice cubes.

Max. freezing capacity

You will find information on the maximum freezing capacity in 24 hours on the rating plate.

Conditions for use of max. freezing capacity

  • Switch on the fast freezing function before placing the food in the freezer (see section ”Fast freezing function”).
  • Remove the freezer compartment fittings.
  • Stack the food directly on the shelves and the bottom of the freezer compartment.

Note:

Do not cover over the ventilation slots in the rear panel with the food you are freezing.

  • Preferably, large quantities of food for freezing should be placed in the top compartment. There it will freeze quickly and, therefore, without adversely affecting the food quality.

Freezing food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food only. Separate food to be frozen from food that is already frozen. Place food in airtight containers to prevent it from losing its flavor or drying out.

How to wrap food correctly

  • Make sure the packaging is not damaged.
  • Check the ”sell by” date.
  • Seal the packaging.
  • Label the package with the contents and date.

Items not suitable for wrapping food:

Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, garbage bags and used shopping bags.

Items suitable for wrapping food:

Plastic film, polyethylene blown film, aluminum foil and freezer cans. These products can be purchased from your retailer.

Items suitable for sealing wrapped food:

Rubber bands, plastic clips, string, cold-resistant adhesive tape or similar items. Bags and polyethylene blown film can be sealed with a film sealer.

Storage life of frozen food

The storage life depends on the type of food. At a temperature of 0 °F (-18 °C):

  • Fish, sausage, ready meals and cakes and pastries: up to 6 months
  • Cheese, poultry, meat: up to 8 months
  • Fruit and vegetables: up to 12 months

Purchasing and storing deepfrozen food

Follow these guidelines when purchasing deep-frozen food:

■ Place food in packaging.

■ Press out any air.

■ The temperature of the supermarket freezer should be lower than 0 °F (-18 °C). If not, this shortens the storage life of the frozen food.

■ Pick up deep-frozen food last when shopping. Wrap in newspaper or place in a cold bag and take home.

■ At home, immediately place deep-frozen food in the freezer compartment. Use the deep-frozen food before the ”sell by” date.

Ice and water dispenser

The following may be dispensed as necessary:

■ cooled water

■ crushed ice

■ ice cubes

WARNING

Risk of injury from broken glass!

Never use fragile glassware to catch ice when dispensed.

WARNING

Risk of injury from rotating crusher blades!

Never reach into the ice cube dispenser opening.

NOTICE

Risk of damage to the appliance!

Do not place bottles or food in the ice cube container in order to cool them quickly. The ice maker may become blocked and damaged.

When switching on the appliance, note the following

The ice and water dispenser only works when the appliance is connected to the water supply.

After the appliance has been switched on, it will take hours before the first batch of ice cubes are ready.

When the appliance is connected, air bubbles will still be in the lines.

Extract the drinking water and discard until water can be dispensed without bubbles. Discard the first five glasses of water.

When using the ice maker for the first time, discard the first 30 to 40 ice cubes. Do not use ice cubes for hygienic reasons.

Operating the ice maker

Once the freezer compartment has reached its freezing temperature, water flows into the ice maker and freezes into ice cubes. The ice cubes are automatically discharged into the ice cube container when they are ready.

After the appliance is first switched on, it takes roughly hours for the first portion of ice cubes to be produced.

The sides of the ice cubes may occasionally stick together. They usually break away from each other as they move to the dispenser opening.

Ice making switches off automatically when the ice cube container is full.

The ice maker can make approximately 140 ice cubes within 24 hours when ice cubes are discharged several times during the day.

As the ice cubes are being made, the sound of the buzzing water valve, the water flowing into the ice storage bin and the falling ice cubes can be heard.

Drinking water quality

CAUTION The water filter included with the appliance only filters out particles from the supplied water and does not filter out bacteria or microbes.

All materials used in the water dispenser are odorless and tasteless. If the water has an aftertaste, this may be caused by:

■ Mineral and chlorine content in the drinking water

■ Materials from which the domestic water line or connection line are made

■ Freshness of the drinking water. If water has not been dispensed for an extended period of time, the water may have a ”stale” taste. In this case, dispense approx. 15 glasses of water and discard.

The taste and smell of the water can be improved by installing the included filter cartridge at the water intake point.

We recommend that you regularly draw off a certain amount of water from the water dispenser and do not switch the appliance off. This will maintain the best water quality.

Dispensing water

1. Press the "Water" button. The display panel shows the "Water" symbol.

2. Press a glass or container against the dispenser lever until the glass is filled with the desired amount of water.

Note: The water from the water dispenser is cooled to a pleasant temperature for drinking. If you prefer the water to be colder, dispense some ice cubes into the glass before drawing the water.

Dispensing ice

Only hold the container against the dispenser lever until the container is half full of ice. Otherwise, the ice in the ice-cube dispenser spout may cause the container to overflow or block the ice cube dispenser spout. If crushed ice was dispensed before dispensing ice cubes, there may still be some crushed ice in the dispenser spout. It will come out together with the first few ice cubes.

1. Press the "Ice cubes/Crushed ice" button until the display shows the "Ice cubes" or "Crushed ice" symbol.

2. Press a suitable glass or container against the dispenser lever until it is filled with the desired amount of ice.

Switching off the ice-maker

Note: It is imperative to turn off the water supply to the appliance several hours before switching off the ice-maker. If you do not expect to be using the ice-maker for longer than 1 week (e.g. when going on holiday), the ice-maker should be temporarily switched off to stop the ice cubes freezing together.

1. Press and hold the "Ice cubes/Crushed ice" button for 3 seconds.

In the display, the symbols "Ice cubes", "Crushed ice" and "Lock" flash for approx. 3 seconds. Then the water dispensing is switched on and the symbol "Water" lights up.

Note: When the "Ice cubes/Crushed ice" button is pressed, when the ice-maker is switched off, an alarm sounds and the symbols "Ice cubes" , "Crushed ice" and "Lock" flash for approx. 3 seconds.

2. Pull out the ice-cube container.

3. Empty the ice-cube container and clean it.

4. Push the ice-cube container all the way back on the runners until it snaps into place.

Switching on the ice-maker

Press and hold the "Ice cubes/Crushed ice" button for 3 seconds. An alarm sounds as soon as the ice-maker is switched on.

Water filter

WARNING In localities where the water quality is not ideal or not known, do not use the appliance without suitable means of disinfection on the inlet and outlet side of the filter.

Filter cartridges for the water filter can be obtained from Customer Support.

CAUTION

■ After fitting a new filter cartridge, always throw away the first 24 hours' worth of ice produced after switching on the ice-maker.

■ If the ice has not been used for an extended period, throw away all the ice cubes in the ice-cube container as well as the ice produced over the next 24 hours.

■ If the appliance has not been used or no ice has actually been dispensed for several weeks or months, or if the ice cubes have an unpleasant taste or smell, change the filter cartridge.

■ Air trapped in the system can cause water to spurt out and eject the filter cartridge. Take care when removing it.

■ The filter cartridge must be replaced at least every 6 months.

Important notes on the water filter

■ After use, the water system is slightly under pressure. Take care when removing the filter cartridge.

■ If the appliance has not been used for an extended period or the water has an unpleasant taste or smell, flush the water system through. To do so, draw water from the dispenser continuously for several minutes. If the unpleasant taste or smell persists, change the filter cartridge.
