IMPORTANT If your new appliance has been bought to replace an order model, please make the old appliance unusable at once: pull the plug out of the socket, cut the connecting lead off, and dispose of the plug together with the remaining lead in an environmentally friendly manner.
General instructions You have just purchased a home refrigerator which has been produced according to the standards applicable to these appliances. During manufacture, the necessary measures have been taken as required by the Appliance Safety Act (GSG), the Accident Prevention Regulations for Refrigerating Installations (VBG 20), and the Specifications of the Institute of German Electrical Engineers (VDE).
Choice of location • If possible, your refrigerator should be installed in a dry, well-venti- lated room. Its installation in a damp room or the occurrence of weather-dependent high air humidity may temporarily lead to pre- cipitation of moisture (dew formation) on the outside of the freezer compartment.
Hints on proper use • Store your food, depending on type and sensitivity, in the appropri ate temperature zones. This will enable you to achieve an optimum storage duration (see illustration under “Correct storage”). • Ensure good packaging and coverage of food intended for storage in the refrigerator to retain flavour, colour, moisture, and freshness.
Removing the adhesive tapes The door is secured to the housing with adhesive tapes. Remove any adhesive tape residues with a suitable petroleum-based cleansing agent. Hints on energy-saving One or two additional hints on energy-saving are given below: • Do not install your refrigerator next to a radiator or oven. Through high ambient temperature, the temperature regulator switches on the refrigerating unit more frequently and for longer.
Mounting under a continuos worktop Supplied with the appliance is a kit including a venting grille (B) and two brackets (A) to fix the appliance to the kitchen unit. Fit the two brackets on the upper hinges (see detail) and fix them by means of the screws supplied with the kit.
Pannelling the door Take off the door frame section opposite to the door handle. Loosen, without removing them, all remain- ing screws securing the door frame. Slide in the decor panel from the frameless side, then fasten again the frame to the door including the previously removed frame section.
Starting up and temperature regulation Insert the plug of the connection lead into the plug socket with protective earth con- tact. When the refrigerator compartment door is opened, the internal lighting is switched on. The temperature selector knob is located on the RH side of the refrigerator compartment.
Icemaking Fill the ice-tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the icemaking compartment, and allow it to freeze. The ice-cubes can be easily loos- ened by twisting the icetray or by holding it briefly under running water. Never loosen the frozen-on ice-tray with sharp or pointed objects, since you may damage the refrigerating circuit.
Cleaning and care Your refrigerator should be cleaned at regular intervals. This is best done when it is empty or contains little food. During clearing, your refrigerator should basically be disconnected (unplugged) from the electricity supply. Some organic solvents as well as essential oils (e. g. juice from lemon and orange peel, butyric acid) attack the plastic parts.
Minor repairs that you can carry out your- self - Spare parts: Spare parts can be ordered from the service centre. You can fit these yourself without any special skill or training, e. g. - internal equipment parts, such as butter/cheese compartment, egg holders, door racks,...
Electrical connection Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed. Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance rating plate.
Plug socket If your appliance is installed under a continuous worktop, the plug socket should be provided as shown. A concealed protective contact plug socket requires 10 A/16 A fusing. 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.
