manufacturing process used, so do
not worry, it is not a d efect.
7. We recommend that you set the
thermostat knob at 3 (three) and
monitor the temperature to ensure
the appliance maintains desired
storage temperatures (See section
Temperature Control and Adjustment).
8. Do not load the appliance
immediately it is switched on. Wait
until the correct storage temperature
has been reached. We recommend
that you check the temperature

Defrosting)
EN
15
5 Using your refrigerator
Temperature Control And Adjustment
Operating temperatures are controlled by the thermostat (see diagram). Settings
may be made from 1 to 5, the coldest position.When the appliance is switched
on for the first time, the thermostat should be adjusted so that after 24 hours, the
average fridge temperature is no higher than +5°C (+41°F ).We recommend you
set the thermostat halfway between the 1 and 5 setting and monitor to obtain the
desired temperature i. e. towards 5 you will obtain a colder fridge temperature and
vice versa. Some sections of the fridge may be cooler or warmer ( such as the
salad crisper and the top part of the cabinet ) which is quite normal.Over ambient
temperatures of 25°C (77°F) especially in summer turn the thermostat knob towards
5. Under ambient temperatures of 25°C (77°F) turn the thermostat knob to a half
way position.Frequent door opening cause higher internal temperatures, so close
the door as soon as possible after use.In case of a temporary ice build up in the
fridge compartment reduce the thermostat setting to 1, monitoring at the same time
that the fridge temperature is maximum +5 degrees C (41 degrees F). Once the ice
build up disappears and the appliance starts auto defrosting again as normal, then
you may increase the thermostat setting, if required.
Suggested Arrangement Of Food In The Fridge
Arrangement Examples (See diagram).
1. To freeze fresh food, frozen food, rapid cooling of beverages,making ice cubes.
2. Baked, chilled cooked food, dairy products,
3. Meat, sausages, cold cuts, cans.
4. Fruit, vegetables, salads.
5. Tubes, small bottles and cans.
6. Butter, cheese, dairy products..
7. Beverages, large bottles.
The following guidelines and recommendations are suggested to obtain the best
results and storage hygiene.
1. The freezer compartment is rated and suitable for the freezing and storage
of pre frozen food. The recommendation for storage as stated on the food
packaging should be observed at all times.
2. The fridge is for the short term storage of fresh food and drinks.
3. Cooked dishes must be stored in airtight covered containers and are best placed on
either of the removable shelves.
4. Fresh wrapped produce can be placed on the shelf. Fresh fruit and vegetables
should be cleaned and stored in the crisper bins.
5. Bottles can be placed in the door section.

6. To store raw meat, wrap in polythene
bags and place on the lowest
shelf. Do not allow to come into
contact with cooked food to avoid
contamination. For safety, only store
raw meat for two to three days.
7. Shelves incorporate rear stops and
tilting for storing bottles. Lift shelf to
clear grooves when adjusting.
8. To tilt a shelf place the back of the
shelf one level below the front of the
shelf. To remove a tilted shelf, first
release the back off the grooves and
then pull it.
9. Keep the food packed, wrapped
or covered. Allow hot food and
beverages to cool before placing
them in the fridge. Do not store
explosive substances in the
refrigerator. High proof alcohol
must be stored upright in sealed
containers. Left over canned food
should not be stored in the can.
10. Fizzy drinks should not be frozen and
products such as flavoured water
ices should not be consumed too
cold.
11. Some fruit and vegetables suffer
damage if kept at temperatures near
0 degrees centigrade. Therefore
wrap pineapples, melon, cucumbers,
tomatoes and similar produce in
polythene bags.
12. Shelves, racks, crisper bins, dairy
compartments, drawers, baskets
trays, flaps, bottle grippers are all
removable.
13. Always wrap food using a suitable
packaging material before storing
in your appliance to avoid contact
with the appliance surface and food
remains for hygiene reasons.
Defrosting
A) Fridge compartment
The fridge defrosts automatically.
The defrosting water runs to the drain
tube via a collection channel and is
evaporated in a special container at
the back of the appliance
During defrosting, water droplets may
form at the back of the fridge where
a concealed evaporator is located.
EN
17
Some droplets may remain on the
liner and refreeze when defrosting is
completed. Do not use pointed or
sharp-edged objects such as knives
or forks to remove the droplets which
have refrozen.
If, at any time, the defrost water does
not drain from the collection channel,
check that no food particles have
blocked the drain tube. The drain tube
can be cleared by pushing the special
plastic plunger provided down the
drain tube.
1
2
B) Freezer compartment
Defrost twice a year or when a frost
layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has
formed.
To start defrosting procedure switch off
the appliance at the socket outlet and

Does Blomberg offer replacements?
This is a repair-only guarantee. On occasion, the Manufacturer may at its sole
discretion, replace your product with a new product instead of carrying out a
repair. Where a replacement is offered, this would normally be an identical model
but when this is not possible, a model of similar specification will be provided.
The Manufacturer will cover the costs and arrange for the delivery of the new
product and for the return of the old product. Any costs related to disconnecting
the faulty product and installing the replacement product will not be borne by
the Manufacturer unless previously agreed to in writing. The original guarantee
will continue to apply to the replacement product; the new product will not come
with a new guarantee.
When will the repair take place?
Our Engineers work Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.00pm. Appointments
outside these hours may be possible at the sole discretion of the Manufacturer
but cannot be guaranteed. Whilst our Engineers will endeavour to minimize
inconvenience and to meet requests for specific timed appointments, this cannot
be guaranteed. We will not be liable for delays or if it is unable to carry out a
repair because a convenient appointment cannot be arranged.
Will there be any charge for the repairs?
It is your responsibility to provide evidence to the Engineer that your product is
covered by this guarantee with a proof of purchase. The Manufacturer reserves
the right to charge for the reasonable cost of any service call if:
• You cannot provide evidence that your product is covered by this guarantee.
• Where a service call has been made and the engineer finds that there is no fault
with your product.
• That your product has not been installed or operated in accordance with the User
Instructions Booklet.
• That the fault was caused by something other than faulty materials, defective
components or manufacturing defects.
• For missed appointments.
Payment of these costs are due immediately upon the Engineer providing you
with an invoice. The Manufacturer reserves the right to terminate the guarantee if
you fail to pay the costs for the service call in a timely manner.

English law and subject to the English Courts, save where you live in another
part of the United Kingdom, in which case the law and courts of that location will
apply.
