							Installation
818 35 64-01/511
Electrical Connection
Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain if 
supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the mains 
at the installation location.
e.g.:  AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or
220 ... 240 V~50 Hz
(i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz)
The rating plate is inside the appliance on the left.
A correctly installed, earthed socket is required for the electrical supply. 
The supply must have a fuse rating of at least 10 Amps.
If the socket is not accessible once the appliance is built in, the electri-
cal installation must include suitable means of isolating the appliance 
from the mains (e.g. fuse, cut-out, current trip or similar with a mini-
mum contact separation of 3 mm).
Warning: To avoid potential danger, if the mains connection lead of 
this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by our customer service 
representative or a person with similar qualifications. 
Installation of the carbon filter
On delivery the carbon filter is placed 
in a plastic bag to secure the length of 
life of the carbon filter. The filter 
should be placed behind the grill 
before the cabinet is turned on. 
0 1.The cover can be opened by simultane-
ously pressing the lever on the right of 
grill (1) and turning the cover outward 
(2). 
2.The carbon filter is then mounted in 
the slot found in the back of the cover 
(3).
1 The filter should be handled carefully 
so fragments don´t loosen from the 
surface.

Buttons for Adjusting the Temperature
The temperature is adjusted using the 
„+“ (WARMER) and „-“ (COLDER) buttons.
These buttons are connected to the temperature display.
 The temperature display is switched over from the display of the 
ACTUAL temperature (Temperature display is illuminated) to the 
display of the DESIRED temperature (Temperature display flashes) by 
pressing one of the two buttons, „+“ (WARMER) or „-“ (COLDER). 
 Each time one of the two buttons is pressed again the DESIRED tem-
perature is adjusted by 1 °C.
 If neither button is pressed, the temperature display automatically 
switches back after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) to the display of 
the ACTUAL temperature.
DESIRED temperature means:
The temperature that is required in the refrigerator compartment. The 
DESIRED temperature is indicated by flashing numbers.
ACTUAL temperature means:
The temperature display indicates the temperature that is currently 
present in the refrigerator compartment. The ACTUAL temperature is 
indicated with illuminated numbers.

Temperature Display
The temperature display can indicate several pieces of 
information.
 During normal operation, the temperature currently present in the 
refrigerator (ACTUAL temperature) is displayed.
 When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates 
the fridge compartment temperature currently set (DESIRED temper-
ature).
 If there is a fault in the appliance the temperature display shows a 
square in the upper part of the temperature display.
COOLMATIC button
The COOLMATIC function is suited for quick cooling of 
large quantities of goods in the refrigerator, e.g. drinks 
and salads for a party.
0 1.The COOLMATIC function is switched on by pressing the COOLMATIC 
button. The yellow light illuminates.
The COOLMATIC function now provides for intensive cooling. A DESI-
RED temperature of +2 °C is automatically selected. The COOLMATIC 
function is ended automatically after a period of 6 hours. The originally 
selected DESIRED temperature is again valid. The temperature display 
shows the ACTUAL refrigerator temperature.
2.The COOLMATIC function can be ended manually at any time by press-
ing the COOLMATIC button again. The yellow light goes out.
Quick chill
The quick chill function can be used for the fast cooling of drinks in 
cans or bottles in the fast cool storage tray or of larger amounts of 
room-temperature food. The built-in charcoal filter reduces the 
development of any smell.
Chilling of cans or bottles
Place cans or bottles in the holder on the 
fast cool storage tray in front of the fan 
grille. Turn the fan regulator to maximum 
and press the COOLMATIC button. 
The yellow indicator light comes on.
 
						

							818 35 64-01/515
Chilling of food
Place the food in the fridge.
Open the fan regulator to maximum and press the COOLMATIC button. 
The yellow indicator light comes on.
When the drinks or the food is sufficiently cooled, press the COOLMATIC 
button again. The yellow indicator light goes out. Set the fan regulator to 
the minimum position.
3 When this function has been activated, forced air will chill the groce-
ries, and the temperature in the cabinet reset to +2 °C. After 6 hours 
the COOLMATIC function is ended automatically. The yellow light goes 
out. Turn the air regulator to its minimum position.
WARNING OFF button
With the WARNING OFF button, the acoustic warning 
signal can be switched off, e.g. the Open Door warning 
when sorting in or out the food to be stored. 
Prior to Initial Start-Up
1 Before connecting the appliance to the mains and putting it into ope-
ration for the first time, leave the appliance to stand for 30 minutes if 
was transported upright. After transport on its side, the appliance must 
be left to stand for 4 hours before putting it into operation. This is 
necessary to allow the oil to flow back into the compressor. Otherwise 
the compressor may be damaged.
0 1.Please clean the appliance interior and all accessories prior to initial 
start-up (see section: Maintenance and Cleaning).
Initial Start-Up
0 1.Insert plug into mains socket.
2.Press ON/OFF button.
3.Set the refrigerator to the desired temperature (see section: Tempera-
ture Adjustment).
 
						

							16818 35 64-01/5
Temperature Adjustment
With the buttons for temperature adjustment the desired temperatures 
in the refrigerator can be adjusted.
0 1.Press either the „+“ (WARMER) or „-“ (COLDER) button.
The temperature display switches over and the DESIRED temperature 
currently set flashes on the temperature display.
2.To adjust to a warmer temperature, press the „+“ (WARMER) button. To 
adjust to a colder temperature, press the „-“ (COLDER) button. The 
changed setting is immediately displayed on the temperature display.
Each time the button is pressed the temperature is adjusted by 1 °C.
Adjustable temperature range: +2 °C to +8 °C, +15 °C (Holiday mode)
Note: From a food science point of view, +5 °C for the refrigerator 
compartment should be considered cold enough as a storage 
temperature.
3 When the buttons are not further pressed after an adjustment has been 
made, after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) the temperature display swit-
ches over and again displays the ACTUAL temperature in the refrigera-
tor. The display changes from flashing to continuous illumination.
The compressor will start and then run automatically.
Information! When the setting is changed, the compressor does not 
start immediately if automatic defrosting is currently taking place.
3 Goods to be refrigerated can be loaded immediately after switching on, 
because the storage temperature in the refrigerator is quickly reached.
Switching the Appliance off
0 1.To switch off, hold down the ON/OFF button for approx. 5 seconds. This 
will result in a countdown from 3 to 1 taking place in the tempera-
ture display. On reaching 1 the fridge will switch off. The temperature 
display will go off.
Note:
The appliance cannot be switched on or off if unplugged, or if there is 
no power being supplied to it.
Following connection to the mains power supply, the appliance returns 
to the same operating state as before the interruption of main power.
 
						

							818 35 64-01/517
If the appliance is to be removed from service for a lengthy period:
0 1.Switch off the appliance, to do this press the ON/OFF button until the 
display extinguishes (see above).
2.Remove the mains plug or switch off.
3.Clean the appliance thoroughly (see section: Maintenance and Clean-
ing).
4.Leave door open to avoid accumulation of odours. 
Holiday Mode
In the holiday mode the temperature for the refrigerator is approxi-
mately +15 °C. In the holiday mode it is therefore possible to leave the 
door of the empty refrigerator closed during periods of extended 
absence. Advantage: Unintentional closing of the door, or accidental 
closing of the door by persons who have access to your home during 
your absence, is no longer possible. Without the holiday mode leaving 
the door closed would lead to the accumulation of odours and mould.
After emptying and cleaning the appliance, proceed as follows:
0 1.To set the holiday mode, press the „+“ (WARMER) or „-“ (COLDER) but-
ton. 
The temperature display will change and indicate in flashing numbers 
the DESIRED temperature that is currently set.
2.Hold down the „+“ (WARMER) button until the temperature display 
indicates H (for holiday). The temperature shown in the temperature 
display will change in steps of 1 °C until it reaches +8 °C. After +8 °C 
the value +15 °C will appear in the display with the letter H. The fridge 
is now operating in energy-saving holiday mode.
3 To switch the fridge back to normal operation, press the „-“ (COLDER) 
button.
Important! Do not store any goods in the refrigerator when the holiday 
mode is in operation. The temperature is regulated at about +15 °C 
when the holiday mode is in operation. This is too warm for food pro-
ducts.

Control and Information Systems
The control and information systems consist of the temperature display, 
an optical warning display and an acoustic warning.
The system warns if:
– if the appliance door remains open for longer than 5 minutes;
– if the temperature in the fridge compartment is too warm;
– functional disturbances at the appliance.
Open Door-Warning 
If the fridge door is left open for longer than 5 minutes the red warn-
ing display will flash and an acoustic warning tone will sound.
If you need more time to load or rearrange refrigerated foods, you can 
switch off the warning tone by pressing the WARNING OFF button. 
The red warning display will go off when the door is closed.
Temperature warning
The red warning light flashes and a warning tone sounds, as soon as the 
temperature in the refrigerator is warmer than 12 °C. Such a rise in 
temperature can possibly be put down to:
– opening the door a lot or leaving it open for a long time;
– storing larger quantities of warm food;
– a fault with the appliance.
You can turn off the warning tone using the WARNING OFF button. 
The warning light and the warning tone switch off automatically, 
when the ACTUAL temperature existing in the refrigerator drops under 
12 °C again.
Function Errors
If the appliance electronics detects a technical fault that needs to be 
rectified by customer service, the temperature display shows a square in 
the upper part of the temperature display. The red warning indicator 
flashes. The appliance will continue to operate in emergency mode.
