Startup / Operation

Prior to first use
CAUTION:
After transport, the appliance should be left standing
upright for four hours before connecting to the power
supply. Nonobservance could lead to malfunction of
the cooling system and causes an appliance break-
down.
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.
• Set the operating conditions. See also the follow-
ing sections.
Settings
Position [ 0 ] means that the appliance is in the
switched-off state. Turn the temperature control
clockwise from this position, the appliance switches
on automatically.
The power levels control the different values of the
internal temperature.
Power level
lowest level,
1, 2
warmest internal temperature
medium level,
3, 4
optimal operating temperature
highest level,
5, 6, 7*
coldest internal temperature
*Beware of high setting because the maximum level may
already mean "freezing point".

The freezer temperature is automatically con-
trolled by the power level setting in the fridge.
Basically, the temperature changes depending on the
ambient temperature (place of installation), the fre-
quency of opening the door and the equipment.
For initial operation, first set the lowest possible in-
ternal temperature (= highest power level) until the
appliance has reached the desired operating tem-
perature. It is recommended to reset to a medium
power level afterwards, then you can easily make
any temperature correction.
Recommendation, for optimized food storage and to
avoid food waste, a medium power level is generally
best. A high power level also increases energy con-
sumption.
