Tips for saving energy
Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room!
The appliance should not be installed in direct
sunlight or near a heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
Do not block the ventilation openings in
the appliance.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment
and use the low temperature of the frozen food
to cool refrigerated food.
Open the appliance as briefly as possible.
Ensure that the freezer compartment door is always
closed properly.
If available:
Fit wall spacers to obtain the indicated energy rating
of the appliance (see “Installing the appliance”,
section “Ventilation”). A reduced wall gap will not
restrict the function of the appliance. The energy
rating may then increase slightly.
The arrangement of the fittings does not affect the
energy rating of the appliance.
Operating noises
Quite normal noises
Droning
Motors are running (e.g. refrigerating units, fan).
Bubbling, humming or gurgling noises
Refrigerant is flowing through the tubing.
Clicking
Motor, switches or solenoid valves are switching on/off.
Preventing noises
The appliance is not level
Please align the appliance with a spirit level. Use
the height-adjustable feet or place packing underneath
them.
The appliance is not free-standing
Please move the appliance away from adjacent units
or appliances.
Containers or storage areas wobble or stick
Please check the removable parts and re-insert them
correctly if required.
Bottles or receptacles are touching each other
Move the bottles or receptacles slightly away
from each other.
Eliminating minor faults yourself
Before you call customer service:
Please check whether you can eliminate the fault yourself based on the following information.
Run an appliance self-test (see chapter “Appliance self-test”).
Customer service will charge you for advice even if the appliance is still under guarantee!
