Preparation of Ice Cubes

1. 

Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer
compartment 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

compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scraper
supplied.

Ice pack

There are two ice packs in one drawer of the freezer.
In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice packs will lengthen
the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to become too warm by
several hours. The ice packs can only fulfil this task optimally if it is placed
in the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food. You can use
the ice packs for cooling cold bags.

Energy Saving Tips

• Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other sources of

warmth. High ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent
operation 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.
