The refrigerating unit is ventilated at the
rear of the appliance. Never cover the gap
on the rear of the appliance. Otherwise,
the refrigerating unit must work harder
and the power consumption is increased.
Connecting the
appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least
1/2 hour until the appliance starts up.
During transportation the oil in the
compressor may have flowed into the
refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for the
first time, clean the interior (see Cleaning).
The socket should be freely accessible.
Connect the appliance to 220 240 V/
50 Hz alternating current via a correctly
installed earthed socket. The socket must
be fused with a 10 A fuse or higher.
If the appliance is to be operated in
a non European country, check on
the rating plate whether the indicated
voltage and current type correspond
to the values of your mains supply.
The rating plate is situated in the

Switching on the
appliance
Rotate temperature selector, Fig. 2/2,
from controller position 0".
The appliance starts refrigerating.
Interior light is switched on when the door
is open.
Selecting the temperature
We recommend storing perishable foods
at a temperature not warmer than +4 °C.
When the controller is at a medium
setting, the temperature drops to approx.
+4 °C in the coldest zone, Fig. q.
Higher settings result in lower
temperatures in the refrigerator and
freezer compartments.
We recommend:
S for short term storage of food:
low controller setting
(energy saving mode, e.g. 1 2)
S for long term storage of food:
medium controller setting (e.g. 2 3)
S select a higher setting (e.g. 4 5) only
temporarily if: door opened frequently,
large amounts of food placed in the
refrigerator compartment.
