2.1 Intended use
This appliance is intended for cooling and freezing food. It has been designed exclusively
for use in household and similar applications such as sta kitchen areas in shops, oces
and other working environments; farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other
residential type environments as well as in bed-and-breakfast and catering business. It is
not intended for commercial or industrial use.
Changes or modications to the device are not allowed. Unintended use may cause haz-
ards and loss of warranty claims.
CAUTION!
When you close the door, the vertical door strip on
the left door should be bent inside (1).
If you try to close the left door and the vertical door
strip is unbent (2), you should bend it rstly, other-
wise the door strip will hit the xing shaft or right
door. Thus a damage to the door slip or a leak will
occur.
There is a heating thread inside the frame. The tem-
perature of the surface will rise a little, which is nor-
mal and won´t aect the function of appliance.

5.12 Tips on storing fresh food
5.12.1 Storing into the refrigerator compartment
▶Keep your fridge temperature below 5°C.
▶Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the appliance.
▶Foods stored in the refrigerator should be washed and dried before storing
▶Food to be stored should be properly sealed to avoid odour or taste alterations.
▶Do not store excessive quantities of food. Leave spaces between foods to allow cold
air owing around them, for a better and more homogeneous cooling.
▶Foods eaten daily should be stored at the front of the shelf.
▶Leave a gap between foods and the inner walls, allowing air owing. In special way
don’t store foods against the rear wall: foods could freeze against rear wall. Avoid di-
rect contact of food (especially oily or acidic food) with the inner liner, as oil/acid can
erode the inner liner. Clean away oily/acid dirt whenever it is found.
▶Defreeze frozen food in the fridge storage compartment. This way, you can use the
frozen food to decrease the temperature in the compartment and save energy.
▶The ageing process of fruit and vegetables such as courgettes, melons, papaya, ba-
nana, pineapple, etc. can be accelerated in the refrigerator. Therefore, it is not advis-
able to store them in the refrigerator. However, the ripening of strongly green fruits
can be promoted for a certain period. Onions, garlic, ginger and other root vegeta-
bles should also be stored at room temperature.
▶Unpleasant odours inside the fridge are a sign that something has spilled and clean-
ing is required. See CARE AND CLEANING.
▶Dierent foods should be placed in dierent areas according to their properties (Fig.
5.12):
1 Butter, cheese, etc.
2 Eggs, cans, canned food, spices, etc.
3 Drinks and bottled foods.
4 Pickled foods, canned food, etc.
5 Meat products, snack foods, pasta, canned
food, milk, tofu, dairy etc.
6 Cooked meat, sausages, etc.

5.12.2 Storage into the freezer compartment
▶Keep the freezer temperature at- 18°C.
▶24 hours before freezing switch on the Power-freeze function; -for small quantities
of food 4-6 hours are sucient.
▶Hot food must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the freezer com-
partment.
▶Food cut into small portions will freeze faster and be easier to defrost and cook. The
recommended weight for each portion is less than 2.5 kg
▶It is better to pack food before putting it into the freezer. The outside of the pack-
aging must be dry to avoid bags sticking together. Packaging materials should be
odour-free, airtight, non-poisonous and nontoxic.
▶In order to avoid expiration of storage periods, please note the freezing date, time
limit and name of the food on the packaging according to the storage periods of dif-
ferent foods.
▶WARNING!: Acid, alkali and salt etc. could erode the internal surface of the freezer.
Do not place the food having these substances (e.g. sea sh) directly on the internal
surface. Salt water in the freezer should be cleaned up immediately.
▶Do not exceed the food storage times recommended by the manufacturers. Only
take the required amount of food out of the freezer.
▶Consume defrosted food quickly. Defrosted food cannot be re-frozen unless it is
rst cooked, otherwise it may bless edible.
▶Do not load excessive quantities of fresh food in the freezer compartment. Refer
to the freezing capacity of the freezer – See TECHNICAL DATA or data at the type
plate.
▶Food can be stored in the freezer at a temperature of at least -18°C for 2 to 12
months, depending on its properties (e.g., meat: 3-12 months, vegetables: 6-12
months)
▶When freezing fresh food, avoid bringing it in contact with already frozen food. Risk
of thawing!
When storing commercially frozen foods, please follow these guidelines:
▶Always follow manufacturers’ guidelines for the length of time you should store food
for. Do not exceed these guidelines!
▶Try to keep the length of time between purchase and storage as short as possible to
preserve food quality.
▶Buy frozen foods, which have been stored at a temperature of –18 °C or below.
▶Avoid buying food which has ice or frost on the packaging – This indicates that the
products might have been partially defrosted and refrozen at some point – temper-
ature rises aect the quality of food.

Notice: Keep distance
▶Please keep the distance more than 10 mm between the food placed and air duct to
ensure the cooling eect.

Energy saving tips
▶Make sure the appliance is properly ventilated (see INSTALLATION).
▶Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight or in the near of heat sources(e.g. stoves,
heaters).
▶Avoid unnecessarily low temperature in the appliance. The energy consumption in-
creases the lower the temperature in the appliance is set.
▶Functions like POWER- FREEZE or POWER-COOL consume more energy.
▶Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in the appliance.
▶Open the appliance door as little and as briey as possible.
▶Do not overll the appliance to avoid obstructing the air ow.
▶Avoid air within the food packaging.
▶Keep door seals clean so that the door always closes correctly.

7.1 Multi-air-ow
The refrigerator is equipped with a multi-air-ow sys-
tem, with which cool air ows are located on every
shelf level (Fig. 7.1). This helps to maintain a uniform
temperature to ensure that your food is kept fresher
for longer.
7.1
7.3 Dry zone drawer
In this compartment the humidity level is around 45% This drawer is suitable to store dry
fruit and other dry food with low water content like like butter, fats and oils or chocolate.
7.2 Adjustable shelves
The height of the shelves can be adjusted to t your
storage needs.
1. To relocate a shelf, remove it rst by uplifting its
hind edge (1) and pulling it out (2) (Fig. 7.2).
2. To reinstall it, put it on the lugs on both sides and
push it to the most rearward position until the rear
of the shelf is xed inside the slots in the sides
