Safety  
The safety aspects of our refrigerators/freezers comply with accepted  
technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. Neverthe-  
less, we consider it our obligation to make you aware of the following  
safety information:  
Intended use  
¥ The refrigerator is intended for use in the home. It is suitable for the  
cooling, freezing and storing of frozen food, as well as for making  
ice. If the appliance is used for purposes other than those intended  
or used incorrectly, no liability can be accepted by the manufacturer  
for any damage that may be caused.  
¥ Alterations or changes to the freezer are not permitted for reasons  
of safety.  
¥ If you use the refrigerator in a commercial application or forpurposes  
other than the cooling, freezing or frozen storage of foods,please  
observe all valid legal regulations for your application.  
Prior to initial startÐup  
¥ Check the refrigerator for transport damage. Under no circumstance  
should a damaged appliance be plugged in! In the event of damage,  
please contact the vendor.  
Refrigerant  
The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant  
circuit of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of environ-  
mental compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable.  
¥ During transportation and installation of the appliance, be certain  
that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become dama-  
ged.  
¥ If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:  
Ð avoid open flames and sources of ignition;  
Ð thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.  
Safety of children  
¥ Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene) can be dangerous for children.  
There is a risk of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from  
children!  
¥ Please make old appliances unusable prior to disposal. Pull out the

mains plug, cut off the mains cable, break or remove spring or bolt-  
catches, if fitted. By doing this you ensure that children cannot lock  
themselves in the fridge when playing (there is risk of suffocation!)or  
get themselves into other dangerous situations.  
¥ Often children cannot recognise the hazards present in household  
appliances. It is therefore important that you ensure adequate  
supervision and never let children play with the appliance!  
Daily Operation  
¥ Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low tempe-  
ratures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers  
with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire  
extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.  
¥ Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer compartment.  
They can burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content  
drinks can even explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine,  
sparkling wine etc. in the freezer compartment. Exception: high  
alcohol content spirits can be stored in the freezer compartment.  
¥ Do not put ice creams or ice cubes in the mouth immediately after  
removal from the freezer compartment. Very cold ice can freeze to  
the lips or tongue and cause injury.  
¥ Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze  
to the food.  
¥ Do not operate any electrical appliances in the refrigerator/freezer  
(e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).  
¥ Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance and  
unplug it, or pull the house fuse or switch off the circuit breaker.  
¥ When unplugging always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not  
pull on the cable.  
In case of malfunction  
¥ If the a malfunction occurs on the appliance, please look first in the  
"What to do if ..." section of these instructions. If the information  
given there does not help, please do not perform any further repairs  
yourself.  
¥ Refrigerators/freezers may only be repaired by qualified service  
engineers. Improper repairs can give rise to significant hazards. If  
your appliance needs repairing, please contact your specialist dea-  
ler or our Customer Service.

Disposal  
Appliance Packaging Information  
All materials are environmentally sound! They can be dumped or bur-  
ned at an incinerating plant without danger!  
About the materials: The plastics can be recycled and are identified  
as follows:  
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the  
interior.  
>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are all free of chlo-  
rofluorocarbon.  
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be dispo-  
sed of at a waste-paper recycling collection location.  
Disposal of old Appliances  
For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be dispo-  
sed of properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of  
its service life - for your new appliance as well.  
Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable.  
Remove plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy  
any snap or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing  
children lock themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or  
place themselves into other life-endangering situations.  
Disposal:  
¥ The appliance may not be disposed of with domestic waste or bulky  
refuse.  
¥ The refrigerant circuit, especially the heat exchanger at the back of  
the appliance, may not be damaged.  
¥ Information concerning collection schedules or locations can be  
obtained from the local disposal authorities or town hall.  
Remove transport safeguard  
The appliance and the interior fittings are protected for transport.  
¥ Pull off the adhesive tape on the left and right side of the door.  
You can remove any remnants of adhesive using white spirit.

Installation  
Installation Location  
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.  
Energy use is affected by the ambient temperature. The appliance  
should therefore  
Ð not be exposed to direct sunlight;  
Ð not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;  
Ð only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corre-  
sponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is desi-  
gned.  
The climate classification can be found on the serial plate, which is  
located at the left on the inside of the appliance.  
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for  
each climate classification: each climate classification:

If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following  
minimum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the applian-  
ce:  
Ð for electric cookers 3 cm;  
Ð for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.  
If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is  
required between the cooker and the refrigeration appliance.  
If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or  
freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to pre-  
vent the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.

Electrical Connection  
Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried  
out by a qualified electrician or competent person.  
WARNING Ð THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED  
The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety  
measures not be observed.  
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the  
same as that indicated on the appliance rating plate. The rating pla-  
te is inside, on the left.  
The appliance is supplied with a 13 amp plug fitted. In the event of  
having to change the fuse in the plug supplied, a 13 amp ASTA  
approved (BS 1362) fuse must be used.  
Important!  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the fol-  
lowing code:  
Green and Yellow Earth  
Blue Neutral  
Brown Live  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may  
not correspond with the coloured markings indentifying the terminals  
in your plug, proceed as follows:  
36  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
1.  
The wire coloured green and yellow must be connected to the termi-  
nal marked with the letter ãEÒ or by the earth symbol or coloured green  
and yellow.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
The wire coloured blue must be connected to the terminal ãNÒ or  
coloured black.  
The wire coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked  
ãLÒ or coloured red.  
Upon completion there must be not cut, or stray strands of wire pre-  
sent and the cord clamp must be secure over the outer sheat.  
Warning! A cut-off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety  
(shock) hazard. Ensure that the cut-off plug is disposed of safely.  
Starting up and temperature regulation  
0 Insert the plug of the connection lead into the plug socket with pro-  
tective earth contact. When the refrigerator compartment door is ope-  
ned, the internal lighting is switched on. The temperature selector  
knob is located on the RH side of the refrigerator compartment.  
Setting ã0Ò means: Off.  
Setting ã1Ò means: Hightest temperature, (warmest setting).  
Setting ã6Ò (end-stop) means: Lowest temperature, (coldest set-  
ting).  
However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in the mind that  
the temperature inside the refrigerator depends on:  
-the quantity of food stored  
-how often the door is opened  
The temperatures in the refrigerator compartment and freezer co part-  
ment cannot be independently regulated.  
If you want the freeze fresh food rapidly, select setting ã6Ò, ensuring  
that the temperature in the refrigerator compartment does not drop  
blow 0¡C. You should also promptly reset the temperature regulator to  
setting ã3Ò or ã4Ò.  
Important!  
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold set-  
ting on the temperature regulator (position"5" to "6") can cause the  
compressor to run continuously.  
If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer set-  
ting (position "3" to "4"). At this setting the compressor will be switched  
on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.

Fresh food refrigeration  
To obtain the best performance:  
¥ do not store warm food or evaporating liquide in the refrigeator  
¥ do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.  
¥ Position food so that air can circuiate freely round it.  
Useful hints:  
Meat (all types): wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf  
above the vegetable drawer(s)For safety, store in this way only one  
or two days at the most.  
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc: these should be covered and may  
be placed on any shelf.  
Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and  
placed in the special drawer(s) provided.  
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight con-  
tainers or wapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as  
much air as possible.  
Milk bootles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the  
bottle rack on the door.  
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be  
kept in the refrigerator.  
Freezing and storing frozen food  
You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself.  
Important!  
¥ The temperature in the freezer compartment must be Ð18 ¡C or col-  
der before freezing food.  
¥ Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate. The  
freezing capacity is the maximum quantity of fresh food that can be  
frozen within a period of 24 hours. If you wish to freeze food seve-  
ral days in a row, please observe a maximum capacity of only 2/3 to  
3/4 of that on the rating plate. The quality of the food is best pre-  
served when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as pos-  
sible.  
¥ Allow warm food to cool down before freezing. The warmth will cau-  
se increased ice formation and increase the power consumption.  
39  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
¥ Please note the maximum storage times specified by the manufac-  
turer.  
¥ Thawed foods which have not been processed further (cooked into  
meals) may not under any circumstances be frozen a second time.  
¥ Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low tempe-  
ratures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers  
with flammable materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire  
extinguisher refill cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.  
¥ Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer. They can burst  
when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even  
explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine  
etc. in the freezer. Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be sto-  
red in the freezer.  
¥ All foods must be packed air tight prior to freezing, so that they do  
not dry out or lose their flavour, and so that no flavour contamina-  
tion of other frozen goods occurs.  
Caution! Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could  
freeze to the food.  
1.  
2.  
Place the packed food in the drawers. Place food to be frozen in the  
upper drawer equipped with its own refrigerating unit. Unfrozen food  
must not touch items already frozen, otherwise the frozen food could  
begin to defrost.  
Place frozen foods in the drawers sorted by type, as far as possible.  
Riders are supplied for placing on drawers. To mark the contents of  
the individual drawers, press the rider over the corresponding symbol  
(see "Frozen Food Symbols/Freezer Calendar" section). This will give  
you a better overview of the contents, avoid extended door opening  
and therefore save electricity.  
Ice pack  
There is an ice pack in one drawer of the freezer.  
In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice pack will  
lengthen the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to become too  
warm by several hours. The ice pack can only fulfil this task optimal-  
ly if it is placed in the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen  
food. You can use the ice pack for cooling cold bags.

Preparation of Ice Cubes  
1.  
Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer  
compartment and leave to freeze.  
2.  
To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it  
under running water for a few seconds.  
Important! Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer  
compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects. Use the ice scra-  
per supplied.  
Storage Goods Symbols/Freezing  
Calendar  
¥ The symbols on the drawers show different types of frozen goods.  
¥ The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate  
types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indi-  
cated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and  
pre-treating before freezing. The lower value applies to foods with  
high fat content.  
¥ By attaching the included index-tabs to the drawers, they can be  
marked according to which type of foods the individual compart-  
ments contain.  
Defrosting  
Refrigerator  
Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigera-  
tor compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during nor-  
mal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special  
container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor,  
where it evaporates.  
Freezer  
The freezer compartment, however, will become progrssively covered  
with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper  
provided, whenever the tickness of the frost exceeds 4 mm. During  
this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to  
remove the foodstuffs.  
However when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, comple-  
te defrosting should be carried out as follows:  
41  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
1.  
2.  
Remove the frozen food from  
the freezer, wrap it in several  
layers of newspaper and put it  
in a very cool place.  
Switch off the appliance and  
pull out the plug, or remove or  
unscrew the safety fuses.  
3.  
4.  
Leave the freezer compart-  
ment door open.  
Insert the plastic scraper into  
the recess provided under the  
defrost water channel and pla-  
ce a collecting basin under it.  
5.  
6.  
Once defrosting is completed keep the scraper for future use;  
Turn the thermostat knob to the required setting or replace the plug in  
the power socket.  
Warning!  
Never use metal tools to scrape off the frost  
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial means to speed up  
the thawing process other than those recommended by the manufac-  
turer.  
A temperature rise of the frozen food packs, during defrosting , may  
shorten their safe storage life.  
Switching off the appliance  
To switch off the appliance, turn the temperature regulator to position  
"0".  
If the appliance is not going to be used for an extended period:  
1.  
2.

accumulate in electrical components, danger of electrical shock!  
Hot vapours can lead to the damage of plastic parts.  
¥ The appliance must be dry before it is placed back into service.  
Attention!  
¥ Ethereal oils and organic solvents can attack plastic parts, e.g.  
Ð lemon juice or the juice from orange peals;  
Ð butyric acid;  
Ð cleansers which contain acetic acid.  
Do not allow such substances to come into contact with appliance  
parts.  
¥ Do not use any abrasive cleansers.  
1.  
Remove frozen food and the food from the refrigerator. Wrap frozen  
food in several layers of newspaper. Store it in a cool place, well cove-  
red.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
Defrost the freezer compartment prior to cleaning (see "Defrosting"  
section).  
Switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the mains, or swit-  
ch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.  
Clean the appliance and the interior accessories with a cloth and  
lukewarm water. Commercially available dish washing detergents  
may also be used.  
5.  
After cleaning wipe with fresh water and rub dry.

the aid of the green peg in the  
pack of accessories included  
with the appliance.  
After everything is dry place  
appliance back into service.  
Energy Saving Tips  
¥ Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other sources  
of warmth. High ambient temperatures cause longer, more frequent  
operation of the compressor.  
¥ Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base  
and at the back wall of the appliance. Never cover air vent ope-  
nings.
