Disposal of Old Appliance
DANGER!
Risk of child entrapment.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of
the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous –
eveniftheywillsitfor“justafewdays.”
Ifyouaregettingridofyouroldrefrigerator,please
follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before you discard old appliances:
• Takeoffthedoors.
• Leavetheshelvesinplacesothatchildren
may not easily climb inside.
• Cutoffthepowercablefromthediscarded
appliance. Discard separately from the
appliance.
• Besuretofollowyourlocalrequirementsfor
disposal of appliances.
Contact the trash collection agency in
your area for additional information.
Disposal of this Appliance
This appliance contains flamable gases within
the refrigeration circuit and insulation foam.
Contact the Municipality or Disposal Company
in your area for information on approved
recycling or disposal.
R600a Refrigerant
WARNING!
The refrigerant contained within the
appliance R600a is environmentally
friendly,butflammable.Leaking
refrigerant can ignite.
To prevent possible ignition follow
the warnings below:
•
Keep ventilation openings, in
the appliance enclosure or in
the built-in structure, clear of
obstruction.
• Donotusemechanicaldevicesorother
means to accelerate the defrosting process,
other than those recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Donotdamagetherefrigerantcircuit.
• Anyrepairsandworkontheappliance
should only be performed by the customer
service department.
• Donotuseelectricalappliancesinsidethe
food storage compartments of the appliance,
unless they are of the type recommended by
the manufacturer.
Disposal of Carton
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance and
individual components during moving and is made of
recyclable materials.
WARNING!
Keep packaging materials away from
children. Polythene sheets and bags can
cause suffocation!
Pleaserecyclepackagingmaterialwherefacilitiesare
available.
Setting up
Avoidplacingtheapplianceindirectsunlightornear
the stove, range top, radiators and similar heat sources.
Assoonasyouuncratetheunit:
• Examinetheunitandpackagingforshippingdam-
age. Contact the carrier immediately if you suspect
there is any damage.
• Notethetype(modelnumber),index,appliance/

Audible Alarm Signal - Figure 8
Theaudiblealarmsignalhelpstoprotectfrozenfood

The audible alarm signal is switched off by touching the
Alarm icon.
Audible door alarm
This sounds when the door has been left open for
longerthanabout180seconds.Thesoundswitch-off
function is active as long as the door is left open. The
alarm automatically switches back to standby when the
door is shut.
Audible/visual temperature alarm
Italwayssoundsifthefreezertemperatureisnotlow
enough. The temperature display and the alarm LED
flash at the same time.
Thiscanbecausedby:
- warm,freshfoodbeingplacedinthefreezer;
- too much warm air from the outside entering when
re-arrangingorremovingfrozenfood,
- a fault in the appliance.
The temperature display will continue to flash until the
causeofthealarmhasbeenrectified.Itwillthenstop
flashing and light up continually. The audible warning
signal is now automatically reset.
SuperCool - Figure 8
Touching the SuperCool icon switches the refrigerator
compartmenttomaximumcooling.Itisrecommended
particularly if you wish to cool large quantities of food,
drinks, freshly baked goods or meals rapidly.
Turning on
Touch the SuperCool icon brieflysotheLED turns
on. The refrigerator temperature will drop to its lowest
value.
IMPORTANT
The SuperCool function uses slightly more
energy. After approximately six hours, however,
the refrigerator switches back automatically to
normal energy-saving operation. If required, the
SuperCool function can be turned off sooner.

reusable plastic, metal or aluminum containers.
• Donotallowfreshfoodwhichistobefrozentocome
intocontactwithfoodalreadyfrozen.Alwayskeep
packages dry in order to avoid them sticking together.
• Alwayswritethedateandcontentsonthepackage
and do not exceed the stated storage time for the
food. This prevents spoiling.
• Packfoodwhichyouarefreezingyourselfin
quantities right for your household. To ensure the
foodfreezesrightthroughquickly,thefollowing
quantitiesshouldnotbeexceededperpackage:
- fruit,vegetables:upto2-1/4lbs(1kg);
- meat:upto5-1/2lbs(2.5kg).
• Donotfreezebottlesandcanswhichcontain

cooled down quickly, but take the bottles out of the
freezercompartmentafteranhouratthemost.
• Onlytakeoutasmuchfoodasneededforthawing.

and ensures that the nutritional value, appearance and
flavor of the food remains intact.

Safety Instructions and
Warnings for the Automatic Ice
Maker
• Theicemakerisdesignedexclusivelytomakeice
cubes in quantities needed by a household.
• Allrepairsandworkontheicemakermayonlybe
done by customer service personnel or other appro-
priately trained personnel.
• Do not consume or use the first three batches
of ice. This applies both to using the appliance
for the first time and also using it after it has not
been used for a long period of time.
• The manufacturer cannot accept liability for
damagecausedbyequipmentorwaterlines
between the solenoid valve and the water supply.
• Theicemakerwillonlymakeicecubesifthefreezer
compartmentisoperatingandbothfreezerdrawers
are completely closed.
Ice Maker Description
Afteryoustarttheicemakerforthefirsttime,itmay
take up to 24 hours before the first ice cubes are ready.
The ice cubes fall out of the ice maker into the drawer
(seechapter“Freezercompartmentdescription”).
IMPORTANT
The first three batches of ice must not be consumed
or used.
Whentheicereachesacertainlevelinthedrawer,the
appliance stops producing ice automatically.
Theproductioncapacityis100-120icecubesin
24hoursatatemperatureof0°F(-18°C)insidethe
freezercompartment.
Tohavethemaximumcapacityofapprox.150ice
cubesin24hours,activatetheSuperFrostfunction.
Be aware that this increases the energy consump-
tion because the compressor will run constantly.
Note
If the IceMaker LED flashes, the ice maker is not
being supplied with water. Check if the shut off
valve of the water supply is opened.
