3. If the appliance is switched off, leave the
door open slightly to avoid mould forma-
tion.
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
and freezer compartments which may
cause the foods stored within to spoil
more quickly.
■
Always abide by the prescribed ambi-
ent temperature (see “Intended use”
on page EN-4).
Using the temperature controller (1), you can
set the temperature in the fridge and freezer
compartments.
• First select a medium setting.
• If, for example in summer, the ambient
temperature increases, so select a lower
setting accordingly.
In order to
– increase the refrigeration output in the
fridge and freezer compartments, turn the
temperature controller towards “7”.
– decrease the refrigeration output in the
fridge and freezer compartments, turn the
temperature controller towards “1”.
You ideally need two refrigerator/freezer ther-
mometers to be able to control the refrigera-
tion output.
Place one in the fridge compartment above
the vegetable drawer (6) and one in the freez-
er compartment. The correct temperature in
the fridge compartment is +6 °C. The ideal
storage temperature in the freezer compart-
ment is –18 °C.
Before getting started
• Read chapter “Safety” starting on page
EN-4 and all the safety notices.
• Set up and connect the appliance as de-
scribed in chapter “Start-up” starting on
page EN-22.

will switch on as soon as the door is opened
and will switch off if the door is closed.
2. If the appliance makes unusual noises,
check that it is on a solid base and re-
move any objects that are on top of the
appliance.
Switching off
1. Set the temperature controller (1) to “0”.
The compressor is switched off. The appli-
ance doesn’t refrigerate. The interior light
continues to function.
2. To switch the appliance off completely,
