Operation
Page GB-11
Switching on
1. Set the temperature controller (11) to a
setting of between “1” and “7”. The appli-
ance is then switched on. The compres-
sor starts to work, the refrigerant flows
through the pipes and a quiet humming
sound can be heard. The interior light will
switch on as soon as the door is opened
and will switch off if the door is closed.
2. If the appliance makes worrying noises
check the solid base and remove any ob-
jects that are on top of the appliance.
Switching off
1. Set the temperature controller (11) to “0”.
The compressor is switched off. The ap-
pliance doesn’t refrigerate. The interior
light continues to function.
2. To switch the appliance off completely,
pull the mains plug out of the socket.
3. If the appliance is switched off, leave the
doors 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 am-
bient temperature (see the ‘Climate
categories’ line on page GB-28).
Using the temperature controller (11), 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 above the vegetable drawer (7) in
the fridge compartment; the correct tem-
perature here is +6 ° C.
– the other in the freezer compartment; the
ideal storage temperature is
−
18 °C.
Shelves and door shelves
The glass shelves (10), bottle rack (9), door
shelves (2) and (3) can be taken out and re-
arranged if necessary.
• In order to remove the door shelves, sim-
ply pull them upwards out of the holders.
• To remove the glass shelves, lift them
slightly at the back and then pull them out
of the guide rail.
• Place the door and glass shelves back
into the desired positions.
