l While the refrigerating machine is running,
water droplets of frost will form on the rear
panel of the refrigerator, simply caused by
the refrigerating machine functioning. It is
not necessary to scrape off the frost or
wipe off the water. The rear panel defrosts
automatically. The defrosting water
collects in the gutter (Fig. A/B), and then
routed to the refrigerating machine where
it evaporates.
l You may notice that the door of the
freezer sometimes refuses to open again
directly after having been closed. If this
does happen, wait two or three minutes
for the vacuum to equilibrate.

freezer compartment which are too
warm may arise if ...
- the door is not closed properly
- large quantities of warm food are placed
in them
- the temperature selectors are set to
+8 °C or to –16 °C
- the air circulation in the refrigerator or the
freezer compartment is severely impaired
by food stored there
- if the doors are opened frequently with
high ambient temperatures.
Temperatures in the refrigerator or the
l
freezer compartment which are too
cold may arise if ...
- "super cooling" or fast-freezing is
switched on

l To prevent condensation in the area of
the door seal, the sides of the housing
are partially heated.

Food arrangement

Fan inside refrigerator
compartment
2
/1. The Fig. 1/9
The fan at the top of the refrigerator
compartment increases the speed at which
air circulates.
The results are...
l a uniform temperature throughout the
2
/1, clean refrigerator compartment
l after the door has been opened, the
original temperature is restored rapidly
l when the temperature setting is altered,
the new level is reached more quickly
l fresh food can be kept for a longer period
of time due to decreased air humidity.
When loading the food,
note the following:
l Allow warm food and beverages to cool
down before storing inside the appliance.
l Ensure that food is well wrapped or
covered before it is stored. This will pre-
vent food from dehydrating, deteriorating
in colour or losing in taste and will help
maintain freshness. It will also prevent
cross-flavouring. Vegetables, fruit and
salad need not be wrapped provided they
are stored in the vegetable bins of the
refrigerator.
l Never let any oil or grease come into
contact with plastic fittings or the door
seal as these materials easily become
porous.
l Never store any explosive substances
inside the appliance. High-proof alcohol
should only be stored upright in tightly
sealed containers.
Danger of explosion!
l Glass bottles containing liquid that can
freeze should never be stored in the
freezer as the glass bursts when the
contents freeze.
