Technical safety

Fire hazard
The tubes of the refrigeration circuit convey a small quantity of an environmentally friendly but flammable refrigerant (R600a). It does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. If refrigerant escapes, it may injure your eyes or ignite.

If damage has occurred

  • Keep naked flames and/or ignition sources away from the appliance,
  • thoroughly ventilate the room for several minutes,
  • switch off the appliance and pull out the mains plug,
  • inform customer service.

The more refrigerant an appliance contains, the larger the room must be in which the appliance is situated. Leaking refrigerant can form a flammable gas- air mixture in rooms which are too small.
The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in your appliance is indicated on the rating plate inside the appliance. When installing the appliance, ensure that the mains cable is not trapped or damaged.
If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, Customer Service or a similarly qualified person. Improper installations and repairs may put the user at considerable risk.
Repairs may be performed by the manufacturer, customer service or a similarly qualified person only.
Only original parts supplied by the manufacturer may be used.
The manufacturer guarantees that only these parts satisfy the safety requirements.
Do not use multiple sockets, extension leads or adapters.

Fire hazard
Portable multiple outlets or power supplies may overheat, causing a fire.
Never leave portable multiple outlets or portable power supplies behind the appliance.

Note
Ensure that the freezer compartment door has been closed properly. If the door is open, the frozen food will thaw. The freezer compartment will become covered in thick ice. Also: waste of energy due to high power consumption!

Freezing capacity

Information on the freezing capacity can be found on the rating plate. Fig. 11

Prerequisites for freezing capacity

  • Switch on fast freezing 24 hours before placing fresh products in the compartment (see chapter “Fast freezing”).

  • The food can be stacked directly on the shelves and in the bottom of the freezer compartment.
    Note
    Do not cover the ventilation slots onthe rear panel with frozen food.

  • Freeze large quantities of food preferably in the very top compartment where food freezes particularly quickly and therefore also gently.

  • If the top compartment does not have enough space, store the remaining foodstuff in the compartment underneath.

Freezing and storing food

Purchasing frozen food

  • Packaging must not be damaged.
  • Use by the “use by” date.
  • Temperature in the supermarket freezer must be -18 °C or lower.
  • If possible, transport deep-frozen food in an insulated bag and place quickly in the freezer compartment.

Note when loading products

  • Preferably freeze large quantities of food in the top compartment, where food freezes particularly quickly and therefore also gently.

  • Do not cover the ventilation slots on the rear panel with frozen food.

  • Place the food over the whole area of the compartments or the frozen food containers.
    Note
    Food which is already frozen must not come into contact with the food which is to be frozen. If required, move the frozen food to the frozen food container.

  • To ensure air circulation in the appliance, insert frozen food container all the way.

Freezing smaller amounts of food

How you freeze smaller amounts of food, so that they are frozen solid extremely quickly, can be found in the section Automatic super freezing.

Freezing fresh food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.

To retain the best possible nutritional value, flavour and colour, vegetables should be blanched before freezing. Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and asparagus do not require blanching. Literature on freezing and blanching can be found in bookshops.

Note
Keep food which is to be frozen away from food which is already frozen.

  • The following foods are suitable for freezing:
    Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood, meat, game, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbs, eggs without shells, dairy products such as cheese, butter and quark, ready meals and leftovers such as soups, stews, cooked meat and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and desserts.

  • The following foods are not suitable for freezing:
    Types of vegetables, which are usually consumed raw, such as lettuce or radishes, eggs in shells, grapes, whole apples, pears and peaches, hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, crème fraîche and mayonnaise.

Packing frozen food

To prevent food from losing its flavour or drying out, place in airtight containers.

  1. Place food in packaging.
  2. Remove air.
  3. Seal the wrapping.
  4. Label packaging with contents and date of freezing.

Suitable packaging:

Cling wrap, tubular film made of polyethylene, aluminium foil, freezer containers. These products are available from specialist outlets.

Unsuitable packaging:
Wrapping paper, greaseproof paper, cellophane, bin liners and used shopping bags.

Items suitable for sealing packaged food:
Rubber bands, plastic clips, string, coldresistant adhesive tape, etc. Bags and tubular film made of polyethylene (PE) can be sealed with a film heat sealer.

Shelf life of frozen food Storage duration depends on the type of food.
At a temperature of -18 °C:

  • Fish, sausage, ready meals and cakes and pastries:
    up to 6 months

  • Cheese, poultry and meat:
    up to 8 months

  • Vegetables and fruit:
    up to 12 months

Super freezing

Food should be frozen solid as quickly as possible in order to retain vitamins, nutritional value, appearance and flavour.
The appliance runs constantly when super freezing has been switched on.
The freezer compartment temperatures are much lower than in normal operation.

Switching on super freezing
**** Depending on the amounts of food to be frozen, you can use super freezing in different ways.

Note
When super freezing is switched on, increased operating noises may occur and the super display is lit, Fig. 2/3.
Distance from wall

Automatic super freezing
Smaller amounts of food are frozen solid extremely quickly if you freeze them as follows:

  • in the second frozen food container from below
  • from the outer right
  • over a large area

Automatic super freezing automatically switches on when warm food items are placed inside the freezer.

Manual super freezing

Freeze larger quantities of food preferably in the top compartment. This is where food freezes particularly quicklyand therefore also gently.

Several hours before placing fresh food in the freezer compartment, switch on super freezing to prevent an unwanted temperature rise.

If the freezing capacity according to the rating plate is to be used, switch on super freezing 24 hours before the fresh products are placed in the freezer compartment.

Keep pressing 4 temperature setting button until 3 super display is lit.

Switching off super freezing

Eliminating minor faults yourself

Before you call customer service:
Please check whether you can eliminate the fault yourself based on the following information.
Customer service will charge you for advice – even if the appliance is still under guarantee!

Fault Possible cause Remedial action
Temperature differs greatly from the set value. In some cases it is

adequate to switch off the appliance for 5 minutes. If the temperature is too high wait a few hours and check whether the temperature has approached the set value. If the temperature is too low check the temperature again the next day.
Displays do not illuminate| Power failure; the fuse has been switched off; the mains plug has not been inserted properly.| Connect mains plug. Check whether the power is on, check the fuses.
A warning signal sounds. Temperature display flashes. Fig. “/2| Fault – the freezer section is too warm! Frozen food is at risk.| To switch off the warning signal, press temperature setting button Fig. “/4.
Appliance is open.| Close the appliance
Ventilation openings are covered up| Ensure that there is adequate ventilation.
Too much food was placed in the freezer at once.| Do not exceed the freezing capacity.
When the fault has been eliminated, the temperature display stops flashing.
Freezer compartment door was open for a long time; temperature is no longer reached.| The evaporator (refrigeration generator) in the NoFrost system is covered in thick ice and can no longer be defrosted fully automatically.| To defrost the evaporator, remove the frozen food with the compartments, insulate well and store in a cool location. Switch off the appliance and move it away from the wall. Leave the appliance door open. After approx. 20 min. the condensation begins to run into the evaporation pan, at the rear of the appliance. Fig. * To prevent the evaporation pan from overflowing in this case, mop up the condensation with a sponge. The evaporator is defrosted when the water stops running into the evaporation pan. Clean the interior. Switch the appliance back on again.
Appliance is not cooling, temperature display and light are lit.| Showroom mode is switched on.| Start appliance self-test (see chapter “Appliance self- test”). When the programme has ended, the appliance switches over to normal operation.
Automatic super freezing does not switch on.| | The appliance decides independently whether automatic Super freezing is required and automatically switches it on or off.
