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  electrical
installation must include suitable means of isolating the appliance from the
mains  (e.g.  fuse,  cut-out,  current  trip  or  similar  with  a  minimum  contact
separation of 3 mm).
Attention:  The  mains  connection  cable  may  only  be  replaced  by  a  skilled
electrician. Please contact your dealer or our customer service department
for repairs.

– butyric acid;
– cleansers which contain acetic acid.
Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance parts.
• Do not use any abrasive cleansers.
1. Remove frozen food and the food from the refrigerator. Wrap frozen food
in several layers of newspaper. Store it in a cool place, well covered.
2. Defrost  the  freezer  compartment  prior  to  cleaning  (see  "Defrosting"  sec-
tion).
3. Switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or switch off
or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
4. Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and lukewarm
water. Commercially available dish washing detergents may also be used.
5. After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry.
Accumulation  of  dust  at  the  condenser  increases  energy  consumption.  For
this reason carefully clean the condenser at the back of the appliance once
a year with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.Energy Saving Tips•  Do  not  install  the  appliance  near  cookers,  radiators  or  other  sources  of
warmth. High ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent opera-
tion of the compressor.
• Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base and at
the back wall of the appliance. Never cover air vent openings.
•  Do  not  place  warm  foods  into  the  appliance.  Allow  warm  foods  to  cool
first.
• Only leave door open as long as necessary.
• Do not set temperature any colder than necessary.
•  Put  frozen  food  in  the  fridge  to  defrost.  The  cold  in  the  frozen  food  will
then be used to cool the fridge.
•  Keep  the  heat  emitting  condenser,  the  metall  grille  on  the  rear  wall  of
your appliance, always clean.

Cleaning and Care
For  hygienic  reasons  the  appliance  interior,  including  interior  accessories,
should be cleaned regularly.Warning!• The appliance may not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Dan-
ger  of  electrical  shock!  Before  cleaning  switch  the  appliance  offand  rem
ve the plug from the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker
or fuse.
• Never clean the appliance with a steam cleaner. Moisture could accumu-
late in electrical components, danger of electrical shock! Hot vapours can
lead to the damage of plastic parts.
• The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.
Attention!
• Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g.
– lemon juice or the juice from orange peals;
1. Remove  the  frozen  food  from  the
freezer,  wrap  it  in  several  layers  of
newspaper  and  put  it  in  a  very  cool
place.
2. Switch off the appliance and pull out
the  plug,  or  remove  or  unscrew  the
safety fuses.
3. Leave the freezer compartment door
open.
4. Insert  the  plastic  scraper  into  the
recess  provided  under  the  defrost
water channel and place a collecting
basin under it.
5. Once defrosting is completed keep the scraper for future use;
6. Switch on the appliance or replace the plug in the power socket.
Warning!
Never use metal tools to scrape off the frost 
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up the
thawing process other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting , may shor-
ten their safe storage life.

• During  normal  operation,  the  temperature  currently  present  in  the  fridge
(ACTUAL temperature) is displayed. 
• When  the  temperature  is  being  adjusted  a  flashing  display  indicates  the
fridge temperature currently set (DESIRED temperature). Starting Up - Setting the Temperature1. Plug the mains plug into the mains socket. 
2. Press  ON/OFF  button  (B)  can  function  the  fridge  compartment  separately
with the appliance in function. The green mains pilot indicator illuminates.
The appliances start.
3. Press either the „C“ or „E“ button. The temperature display switches over and
the DESIRED temperature currently set flashes on the temperature display.
4. Set the required temperature by pressing the „C“ or „E“ buttons (see section
"Temperature  setting  buttons").  The  temperature  display  will  immediately
show the changed setting. Each time the button is pressed the temperatu-
re is adjusted by 1 °C.
From  a  food  safety  point  of  view  +5  °C  should  be  considered  sufficiently
cold for storing food in the fridge.
5. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5
sec.)  the  temperature  display  will  change  and  again  indicate  the  current
ACTUAL temperature inside the fridge. The display will change from flashing
to continuous illumination.
Information!When  the  setting  is  changed,  the  compressor  does  not  start
immediately if automatic defrosting is currently taking place. As the stora-
ge  temperature  within  the  fridge  is  reached  quickly  you  can  store  food
immediately after switching on.COOLMATIC 
The  COOLMATIC  function  is  suited  for  quick  cooling  of  large  quantities  of
goods in the refrigerator.
1. The  COOLMATIC  function  is  switched  on  by  pressing  the  COOLMATIC  but-
ton. The yellow light illuminates.
The  COOLMATIC  function  now  provides  for  intensive  cooling.  A  DESIRED
temperature of +2 ÞC is automatically selected. The COOLMATIC function is
ended automatically after a period of 6 hours. 
2. The  COOLMATIC  function  can  be  ended  manually  at  any  time  by  pressing
the COOLMATIC button again. The yellow light goes out.
Holiday function
The  holiday  function  sets  the  temperature  at  +15°C.  This  function  allows
you  to  keep  the  refrigerator  shut  and  empty  during  a  long  holiday  period
38Freezing Calendar
•  The  symbols  on  the  drawers  show
different types of frozen goods.
• The numbers indicate storage times
in  months  for  the  appropriate
types of frozen goods. 
Whether  the  upper  or  lower  value  of  the  indicated  storage  time  is  valid
depends  on  the  quality  of  the  foods  and  pre-treating  before  freezing.  The
lower value applies to foods with high fat content.
Preparation of Ice Cubes1.  Fill  the  ice  cube  tray  3/4  full  with  cold  water,  place  it  in  the  freezer  com-
partment and leave to freeze.
2. To  loosen  the  frozen  cubes,  either  bend  the  ice  cube  tray  or  hold  it  under
running water for a few seconds.
Important!Never  try  to  free  an  ice  tray  that  is  frozen  to  the  freezer  com-
partment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scraper supplied.Defrosting
RefrigeratorFrost is automatically eliminated from
the  evaporator  of  the  refrigerator
compartment  every  time  the  motor
compressor  stops,  during  normal  use.
The defrost water drains out through a
trough  into  a  special  container  at  the
back of the appliance, over the motor
compressor, where it evaporates.FreezerThe  freezer  compartment,  however,  will  become  progrssively  covered  with
frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, whe-
never the tickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During this operation it is not
necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs. 
However  when  the  ice  becomes  very  thick  on  the  inner  liner,  complete
defrosting should be carried out as follows:
