10 Using the fridge

Switch on / off and selecting the temperature

Temperature dial (thermostat)

The temperature dial switches the appliance on and off and

sets the cooling temperature.

Switch on:

Turn the temperature dial to the right. Your fridge has

been switched on. The light in the fridge compartment

comes on. The compressor runs until the set temperature

has been reached.

Temperature settings:

Turn dial left to lowest setting = slight cooling

Turn dial right to highest setting = lowest temperature

The temperature must be set according to:

room temperature

quantity of stored food

how often the appliance is opened

We recommend a medium setting. You will soon learn,

through observation, which is the most suitable setting for

your requirements.

Switch off: Turn the dial as far to the left as possible.

The light in the fridge compartment goes off.

The compressor has been switched off.

Interior lighting (not available on all models)

For those models equipped with interior lighting, a

Switch has been built in.

When the fridge has been switched on at the temperature

dial, the light automatically comes on when the fridge door is

opened and automatically goes off when the door is closed.

The light bulb is protected by a transparent cover.

Changing the light bulb:

Replacing the light bulb:

Under no circumstances should you use a lamp with a

wattage more than that specified on the original lamp.

Unplug the fridge and switch off the main fuse.

Remove the transparent lamp cover (as far as available).

Remove the old bulb by unscrewing it and screw in the

replacement bulb.

Fit the lamp cover back in place.

See also instruction in chapter “Product overview.

LED lights may only be replaced by a qualified specialist.

There is generally no warranty for bulbs.

Temperature range

Thanks to the natural air circulation in the fridge

compartment there is a range of differing temperatures that

is suitable for the storage of different food. The coldest

areas are directly over the salad crispers, in the lowest part

of the fridge and against the back wall (suitable e.g. for

sausages and meats); the warmest areas are in the front

upper part and on the door (suitable for spread able butter

and cheese).

Arrange the food according to the following table and store it

not too tightly packed so that the air can circulate freely.

Storing food in the fridge (from the top to the bottom)

1. Door storage compartments

a) Butter, cheese

b) Eggs

c) Small jars or bottles, tins, seasonings

d) Large bottles, tins

2. Fridge compartment (shelving / glass plates)

a) Preserves

b) pastries, ready cooked foods

c) Dairy produce / meats and sausages

d) Meats and sausages

e) Vegetables, fruits, salad

Advice

Food that gives off, or absorb, slight odour or taste, as

well as liquids, should always be kept in sealed containers

or in their own packaging; high proof spirits should be

stored upright and tightly closed.

Vegetables, fruits, salad can be stored unpacked in the

salad crispers.

Plastic and aluminium foils, which can be reused, are

suitable for packing food, as are metal or glass containers.

Hot foods and drinks should always be allowed to cool

down out of the fridge.

Switching the fridge off

If the fridge has to be switched off for a long period, the

temperature dial should be set to ”0“ and the fridge cleaned

as instructed above.

While the fridge is off, leave the doors open to prevent

odours from building up.

11 Troubleshooting guide

High quality manufacturing processes and the use of the

latest refrigerating and freezing technology will ensure the

trouble-free functioning of your appliance.

If you suspect any fault, before contacting your nearest

service department directly or via your dealer, make sure

you have followed all instructions and advice given in this

user manual.

Please note:

The compressor (also known as the refrigerating motor)

must not operate continuously.

It is controlled by a thermostat, which you set on the

temperature dial and switches on automatically when the set

temperature in the appliance is exceeded and switches off

automatically when it is reached again.

Noise can be heard in every compressor - refrigerating

system when it is switched on. These noises are produced

when the motor in the compressor is running and by the

refrigerant flowing through the refrigerating system circuit.

These noises are normal and do not indicate any fault in the

functioning of your appliance.

In unheated rooms and in cold weather conditions,

condensation can build up on the outer walls of the

appliance.

This does not mean there is a fault and it will disappear

when the temperature increases.

Only call the service department, if after analysis of the

possible fault factors, you cannot find any cause for the

defect or you are not able to eliminate the fault.

Therefore first check under: ”what to do when ...“
