Startup / Operation - BOMANN DTR 353.1 Instruction Manual

WARNING:
 The accessibility of the power plug must be en-
sured to disconnect the appliance from the power
supply in case of emergency.
 Make sure that the voltage supply matches the
specifications on the rating label before connect-
ing.
 Connect the mains cable to a properly installed
and earthed wall outlet.
 If the plug after installation is not accessible, a
corresponding disconnect device must be availa-
ble to meet the relevant safety regulations.

Startup / Operation

Prior to first use
CAUTION:
After transport, the appliance should be left standing
upright for about four hours before connecting to the
power supply. Nonobservance could lead to malfunc-
tion of the cooling system and causes an appliance
breakdown.
Clean the appliance interior including all accessory
parts. Consider the instructions which we provide in
the chapter "Cleaning and Maintenance".
Starting the appliance
 Connect the appliance to the power supply.
 Operate the temperature control. See also the
section "Settings".
Settings
Setting [ 0 ] means that the appliance is in the off
state. Turn the temperature control clockwise, start-
ing from this setting; the appliance will turn on auto-
matically.
The power levels [ 1 – 5 ] regulate the different val-
ues of the internal temperature.
Setting 0: Off sate
Setting 1: Lowest setting (warmest inside temp.)
Setting 5: Highest setting (coldest inside temp.)
The temperature of the freezer is automatically con-
trolled by the power level setting in the fridge.
Note that the temperature will change depending on
the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening
and the amount of food in the appliance.
During initial operation, turn the power level to the
highest level first, until the appliance has reached the
desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is rec-
ommended to turn the control back to a medium set-
ting; correcting the temperature at a later point would
then be easier.
NOTE:
In generally a low to medium power level works best
for an optimized food storage. A high power level
also increases the energy consumption.
Interior light
When opening the fridge door, the interior light will
turn on automatically.
Storing food
NOTE: Recommendation!
To guarantee that the temperature is low enough,
you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before
initial loading foods.
CAUTION:
Always pay attention to the storage instructions on
the sales packaging.
To avoid contamination of food, respect the following
instructions:
 Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
