food for an extended period of time, a

temperature of 0°F (-18°C) is

suggested.

^ Touch the sensor button for the

refrigerator or freezer section so it

turns yellow.

The room temperature and the

installation location can affect the time it

takes for the appliance to get to the

desired temperature. If the room

temperature is too high, it may not be

possible for the appliance to reach the

lowest temperature.

^ Use the X and Y buttons next to the

temperature display to set the

temperature warmer or colder.

temperature, wait for approx. 6 hours if

the appliance is not very full and for

approx. 24 hours if the appliance is full

before checking the temperature, as it

will take this long for the appliance to

reach the temperature. If, after this

time, the temperature is still too high or

too low, you will need to adjust it again.

three times longer than in the other

zones of the refrigerator.

Using the SmartFresh drawers

^ Use the sensor button to select the

For fresh foods that are not adversely

affected by cold, the best range is

32° - 37°F (0° - 3°C). This helps to keep

the food fresh considerably longer than

in the rest of the refrigerator, spoiling is

minimal.

The selected sensor button turns

yellow, and the sensor buttons for the

food choices appear.

The most recently selected food type(s)

appear yellow.

Humidity

The level of humidity in the SmartFresh

drawers is dependent on:

^ Use the sensor buttons to select the

desired food type(s), so they appear

yellow.

– the moisture content of the stored

food, and

– Several food types can be selected

at the same time.

– the quantity of food stored.

The closer the humidity in the appliance

matches the moisture content of the

food, the more moisture the food will

retain, and the fresher and crisper it will

stay over a longer period of time.

– To delete a food type, simply press it

again.

– Depending on the food types

selected, the optimal humidity is

determined for the crispers.

– The "deli" and "dairy" settings are the

most energy efficient.

^ Touch the access button "p" to

confirm the settings.

^ Place the food in the drawer.

SmartFresh drawers

For optimal storage conditions, it is

always best to store similar foods

together in one crisper.

Foods that are best stored under dry

conditions

– fresh fish and shellfish, meats,

poultry, sausage, dairy products and

deli salads.

Foods that are best stored under

moist conditions

– fresh produce, e.g., vegetables,

lettuce, herbs, mushrooms,

cabbage, fruit.

Remember that higher moisture levels

can only be attained when the food is

stored unpacked so air can circulate

freely.

Using the refrigerator efficiently

Different storage zones

– fresh bread dough, pastry dough,

cake batters,

Due to the natural circulation of air in

the appliance, there are different

temperature zones in the refrigerator.

Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest

section of the appliance. Make use of

these different zones when placing

food in the appliance.

– dairy products.

Do not store explosive materials in

the appliance or any products

containing propellants (e.g. spray

cans). Danger of explosion.

This appliance uses a dynamic

cooling feature to establish a

constant temperature during

cooling. As a result, the differences

between temperature zones are less

pronounced.

If storing high-proof alcohol, make

sure it is tightly closed and stored

upright.

Do not store cooking oil in the

refrigerator door. Traces of oil can

cause stress cracks to occur in the

plastic components in the door.

Leave some space between items, so

air can circulate freely around them.

Make sure the ventilation slits are not

covered - this is important for the

cooling performance.

Do not allow food to touch the rear

wall of the appliance, it may freeze

to the wall.

Warmest area

To allow air to circulate efficiently,

do not pack food too closely

The warmest area is in the top section

of the door (storage shelf). Use this

cover the fan in the rear wall of the

refrigerator, as this is essential for

keeping the appliance cool.

Coldest area

The coldest area in the refrigerator is

directly above the SmartFresh drawers.

The temperature in the drawers

themselves is even colder.

Use these cold areas in the refrigerator

for all highly perishable foods, such as:

– fish, meat, poultry,

– deli meats, store-bought meals,

– dishes or baked goods containing

eggs or cream,

Freezing food

Placing food in the freezer

Fresh food should be frozen as quickly

as possible. This helps maintain the

nutritional value, vitamin content,

appearance and taste of the food.

Food to be frozen can be placed

anywhere in the freezer section.

^ When placing items in the freezer,

make sure the packaging and

containers are dry, to keep them from

sticking together when frozen.

When freezing, make sure that

already frozen food does not come

into contact with fresh food being

frozen, this could cause the frozen

food to defrost.

– in the refrigerator (the cold given off

by the frozen food helps to keep the

other food cold),

– in a steam oven.

Poultry It is especially important to

observe proper hygiene when

defrosting poultry. Never save the liquid

from defrosted poultry. Drain it away

and promptly wash the container, the

sink and your hands. Danger of

salmonella poisoning.

Fruit should be defrosted at room

temperature in its packaging, or in a

covered bowl.

Most vegetables can be cooked while

the freezer.

The sensor button turns white, and the

appliance continues running at normal

power.

Ice cube maker

Once the ice cube container is full, the

ice cube maker switches off

automatically.

For the automatic ice cube maker to

operate, it must be connected to the

household water supply. See

"Plumbing".

Do not use the ice cube container

for rapid cooling of food or drinks.

The ice cube maker may become

blocked and be damaged.

Turning on the ice cube maker

^ Make sure that the ice cube

container is under the ice cube

maker, as far as possible.

Do not use the first three containers

of ice cubes from the ice cube

maker.

Ice cubes will not be produced unless

the container is completely closed.

Discard the ice produced in the first

24 hours after switching on the ice

cube maker.

This applies for the very first use,

and whenever the appliance has

been out of service for an extended

period of time.

^ Touch the sensor button for the ice

cube maker so that it turns yellow.

As soon as the freezer has cooled to a

freezing temperature, the ice cube

container fills with water. Cold air is

blown directly over the container.

The amount of ice cubes produced

depends on the temperature in the

freezer section. The lower the

temperature, the more ice cubes will be

produced in a given period of time.

As soon as the ice cubes are frozen,

they fall into the ice cube container.

Turning off the ice cube maker

The ice cube maker can produce

approx. 140 ice cubes within 24 hours.

Note: Ice production will vary due to

your water source temperature,

pressure and hardness.

The water supply line must be shut

off several hours before the

appliance or ice cube maker is

switched off.

The production volume of the ice

depends on the temperature in the

freezer. The lower the temperature the

more ice cubes produced.

After the appliance is turned on for the

very first time, it can take up to 10 hours

for the first ice cubes to drop out of the

ice cube maker and collect in the

container.

^ Touch the sensor button for the ice

cube maker so that it turns white.

and frost can form on the rear wall of

the refrigerator and drawers.

You do not need to remove this

build-up, it will defrost and evaporate

automatically with the heat generated

by the appliance.

This automatic defrosting system

enables the freezer to remain
