Switching the appliance on
and off
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the cooling unit has been transport-
ed horizontally, lubricant from the com-
pressor may get into the cooling circuit.
■
Allow the appliance to stand upright
for approx. 2 hours after transport
and before connecting.
Switching on
1. To switch the appliance on, insert the
mains plug into the socket.
The indicators on the display (12) will light
up for one second.
2. Press and hold the button (10) for ap-
proximately 3 seconds.
The compressor starts to work, the refrig-
erant flows through the pipes and a quiet
humming sound can be heard.
If the appliance is making unusual
noises, check that it is stable and re-
move any objects that may be on top
of it.

If the appliance is switched off, leave
the appliance door (2) open slightly to
prevent 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 refrigeration perfor-
mance. This increases energy con-
sumption.
Switching on for the first time
The standard temperature setting for when
the appliance is first switched on is +4 °C.
Changng the temperature
You can set the temperature to between
+2 °C and +8 °C.
