Operation
Before getting started
• Read the “Safety” chapter from page EN-4.
• Set up and connect the appliance as
described in chapter “First use” from
page EN-19.
Switching the appliance on
and off
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the cooling appliance has been trans-
ported horizontally, lubricant from the
compressor may get into the cooling
circuit.
■
Allow the appliance to stand upright
for approx. 2 hours after transport
and before connecting.
Switching on
• To switch the appliance on, insert the
mains plug into the socket.
The compressor starts to work, the refrig-
erant flows through the pipes and a quiet
humming sound can be heard.
The indicators on the control panel (1)
light up for one second.
If the appliance is making unusual
noises, check that it is stable and re-
move any objects that may be on top
of it.
Switching off
• To switch the appliance off, pull the mains
plug out of the socket.
If the appliance is switched off, leave
the appliance door (2) open slightly to
avoid mould from forming.
Setting the temperature
CAUTION
Health hazard!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. The
temperature may increase in the fridge
which may cause the foods stored with-
in to spoil more quickly.
■
Always ensure the prescribed ambi-
ent temperature is maintained (see
“Intended use” on page EN-4).
If you set a lower temperature, you will
require greater cooling power. This in-
creases energy consumption.
Switching on for the first time
The standard temperature setting for when
the appliance is first switched on is –22 °C.
All indicators on the control panel will also il-
luminate for a couple of seconds.
Change temperature
You can set the temperature to between
–14 °C and –22 °C.
• Touch the “Set” button (9) repeatedly until
the desired temperature is displayed.
-14
-16 -18
-20 -22
The temperature is reduced by 2 °C each
time you press the button. When the set-
ting reaches –22 °C, the display jumps to
–14 °C when pressed again.
The ideal temperature for the freezer is
–18 °C.
