It is designed as a household appliance. If used commercially, the relevant regulations on commercial use must be observed. • The interior light will turn ON when the refrigerator door is open. • The freezer compartment display will display lines until a temperature less than 32°F (0°C) is reached. The appliance is set to operate within specific ambient temperature limits according to its climate rating. These temperature limits should not be exceeded. The correct climate rating for your appliance is indicated on the model plate. Setting the Temperature - Figure 1 This is explained as follows: The appliance is pre-set for normal operation. We recommend temperatures of 34°F (+1°C) in the BioFresh compartment and 0°F (-18°C) in the freezer compartment. Climate Rating Set for Ambient Temperatures of SN N ST T 50°F to 90°F (10°C to 32°C) 61°F to 90°F (16°C to 32°C) 65°F to 100°F (18°C to 38°C) 65°F to 109°F (18°C to 43°C) - The refrigerant circuit has been tested for leaks. - The appliance complies with current safety regulations and EC directives 73/23/EEC and 89/336/EEC. We recommend cleaning the appliance before turning it ON for the first time. See Cleaning. Turn ON the appliance several hours before loading it with frozen food for the first time. Do not load with frozen food until the temperature shows approximately 0°F (-18°C). ! WARNING Do not allow children to play with the appliance. Children must not climb, sit or stand on the shelves, drawers or door. Turning the Appliance ON and OFF - Figure 1 Clean the appliance before turning it on for the first time. See Cleaning. Allow the appliance to operate approximately two hours before placing food in it. DO NOT place frozen food in the freezer until the temperature shows at least 0°F. The refrigerator and freezer compartments can be operated separately. 1. Turning ON: Press the Refrigerator ON/OFF button (Fig. 1, 9) and the Freezer ON/OFF button (Fig. 1, 3) so the Temperature Displays (Fig. 1, 1) and (Fig. 1, 7) light up or “flash.” The appliance is pre-set for normal operation. We recommend temperatures of 34°F (+1 °C) in the BioFresh compartment and 0°F (-18 °C) for the freezer. To reduce the temperature: Press the (DOWN) button; (8) on left for BioFresh compartment and (2) on right for the freezer compartment. To increase the temperature: Press the (UP) button. The temperature in the BioFresh compartment is controlled automatically, between 33°F to 35°F (0°C and 2°C). If you want a higher or lower temperature, for example, for storing fish, you can alter the temperature setting in the BioFresh compartment. The setting range is displayed as between b1 and b9. The default factory setting is b5. The temperature can be changed by ± 5 increments, displayed in the temperature display. Note By decreasing the temperature, b4 to b1, minus temperatures can be reached and the food will freeze slightly. For the freezer compartment, the setting range is displayed between 7°F and -14°F (-14°C and 26°C). Whether you can obtain the lowest freezer temperature depends on where the appliance is positioned (if it is located in an area with a high ambient temperature it will not reach the lowest temperature). While you are entering the temperature, the set temperature will flash on the display. When you press the temperature setting buttons for the first time, the most recent setting is displayed. * Depending on model and options BFI/BF1055 (7082 244-00) 5 7082_244_00_Use Manual.qxd 10/21/2004 8:05 AM Page 6 OPERATION You can change the settings in increments by briefly pressing the buttons again. If the buttons are held down, the temperature setting will change faster. Approximately five seconds after the button has been released, the display will automatically show the actual freezing or BioFresh temperature (known as the “actual setting”). Temperature Display When the appliance is switched on (Fig. 1, 3), the set unit of temperature °F or °C appears on the display (Fig. 1, 7) for a few seconds. If you wish to change the unit of temperature, you can adapt the display. The altered temperature will adjust slowly to the new value. Refer to Additional Functions, unit of temperature for more information. Additional Features In normal operation, the following settings will be displayed: In set-up mode you can set the Childproof Lock, adjust the brightness of the display* and choose the unit of temperature in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius for the display. To activate the set-up mode: • Press SuperFrost button for approximately five seconds, the SuperFrost will button will flash and the display shows for Childproof Lock. Note The value to be altered will flash. • Select the required function by pressing the ?/? (UP/DOWN) button: = childproof lock or = unit of temperature. = brightness or • Now select/acknowledge function by pressing the SuperFrost button briefly: – For = childproof lock, press the / (UP/DOWN) button to select = childproof lock ON or = childproof lock OFF and acknowledge with the SuperFrost button.

The display will flash: – if you change the temperature or – if the temperature rises by several degrees, indicating a rise in temperature from placing fresh, "warm" food in the freezer or if you remove or re-pack frozen food, the temperature may rise for a short time due to warm air flowing into the freezer. Once you have finished loading or re-packing, the electronics will automatically re-set the temperature to the most recent setting. Short-term rises in temperature will not affect the frozen food. • If F 0 to F 5 appears in the display, the appliance has recognized a fault. Contact your Liebherr retailer or the customer service department and indicate the fault number displayed; this will tell the technician what kind of irregularity has occurred. Audible Warning Signal - Figure 1 The audible warning signal helps to protect frozen food and to save energy. The audible warning device is turned off by pressing the audible warning ON/OFF button (Fig. 1, 5). The alarm will turn off automatically as soon as the temperature is low enough or the door is closed. To exit set-up mode: • Press the ON/OFF button; after two minutes the electronic system automatically switches over and the normal operating mode is activated. * Depending on model and options 6 BFI/BF1055 (7082 244-00) 7082_244_00_Use Manual.qxd 10/21/2004 8:05 AM Page 7 OPERATION Audible Door Alarm - BioFresh Compartment The alarm sounds when the door has been left open for longer than approximately 60 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 closed. Audible/Visual Temperature Alarm - Freezer Compartment The audible/visual alarm will sound and display will flash if the freezer temperature is not low enough (depending on the temperature setting). This can be caused by: • “warm,” fresh food being placed in the freezer. • too much warm air from the outside is entering when re-arranging or removing frozen food. The temperature display will continue to flash until the cause has been rectified. It will then stop flashing and temperature will display. The audible warning signal will also reset. Power Failure/Frost-Control Display - Figure 1 If appears in the display, this means the freezer temperature has risen too high during the last few hours or days due to a power failure. SuperFrost Fresh food should be frozen to the core as rapidly as possible. Frozen food can also be given a cold boost. This is provided by the SuperFrost feature (Fig. 1, 4) and ensures the nutritional value, appearance and flavor of the food remains intact. • The maximum amount of food which can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the type plate, freezing capacity, weight in 24 hours (Fig. 1, 31). For more information, refer to Freezing with SuperFrost. BioCool The BioCool button switches the BioFresh compartment to maximum cooling. It is recommended to cool large quantities of food, freshly baked cakes or meals rapidly. • To turn ON: Press the BioCool button (Fig. 1, 10) briefly. When the symbol is lit, BioCool is activated. Note The BioCool function uses slightly more energy. After approximately six hours, the electronic control system will automatically switch back to normal energy-saving operation. The BioCool function can be turned OFF sooner. • To turn OFF: Press the BioCool button, if the indicator is lit and BioFresh will turn OFF. • If you press the Alarm button (Fig. 1, 5) while the display is reading, the highest temperature registered during the power failure will be displayed. • Check the quality of the food in case it has become too warm or even defrosted. • The highest temperature will appear for approximately one minute. After that, the actual temperature in the freezer will reappear. The display can be turned OFF by repeatedly pressing the Alarm button. Once the power is re-instated, the appliance will continue to operate at the most recent temperature setting. * Depending on model and options BFI/BF1055 (7082 244-00) 7 7082_244_00_Use Manual.qxd 10/21/2004 8:05 AM Page 8 BIOFRESH COMPARTMENT The BioFresh Compartment The BioFresh compartment enables you to keep a range of fresh food fresh for up to three times as long as you would in a standard refrigerator, thus making your food last longer. Taste, freshness and nutritional value (vitamin B and C group content) remain largely intact. Spoilage and weight loss in vegetables and fruit are reduced, leaving food more fresh and natural. The automatically controlled storage temperature, which is kept between 32°F and 36°F (0°C and 2°C), and the resulting humidity provide the ideal storage conditions for different types of food. The top drawer: • is suitable for storing dry and wrapped food (e.g. dairy products, meat, fish, cold meats). The storage climate in this drawer is relatively dry. The drawer with humidity control: • can be set to “humid” for storage of unwrapped salad, vegetables and fruit. When the drawer is full, the climate will be “dew-fresh,” with approximately 90% humidity. You can set the humidity in this drawer to dry or moist as desired. Tips: • The humidity in the compartment depends on the moisture content of the food in it, and the frequency with which the compartment is opened. • When buying food, make sure it is fresh; the fresher the product and the higher the quality, the longer it will keep. • Unwrapped meat and vegetables should be stored separately in the drawers. If there is not enough space for them to be stored separately, make sure they are wrapped. • Do not allow different types of meat to come into contact with one another but keep them packaged separately to avoid premature bacterial spoilage. • Note that protein-rich food spoils more quickly, i.e. crustaceans and shellfish spoil faster than fish, and fish faster than meat. • Remove food from the drawers some time before consumption. Enjoyment will be enhanced in this way as the aroma and flavor develop best at room temperature.

Frozen food can also be given a cold boost. This is provided by the Superfrost feature and ensures that the nutritional value, appearance and flavor of the food remain intact. Use frozen food within the recommended period. The numbers between the symbols indicate the storage period in months for different kinds of frozen foods. Storage times given are guidelines for food frozen at home. Whether or not the lower or upper value is applicable depends on the food quality and how it was processed prior to freezing. The lower values always apply to food with a high fat content. • The maximum amount of food which can be frozen in 24 hours is shown on the model plate (“Freezing capacity ... kg/24h”), (Fig. 1, 31). This amount varies according to the model and climate rating. Freezing with SuperFrost - Figure 1 • Press the SuperFrost button (Fig. 1, 4) briefly so the LED turns ON. The freezer temperature will decrease and the appliance will change to the lowest temperature. pre-cooked meals ice-cream fish pork vegetables fruit • For small amounts of frozen food, it is normally sufficient to turn ON SuperFrost six hours beforehand. For the maximum amount (see freezing capacity on the model plate) you will need to turn it ON 24 hours before. • Then place the fresh food inside the freezer, preferably in the top drawers. If freezing the maximum quantity of food, DO NOT use the drawers; instead, place the wrapped food directly on the glass shelves. Once the food is frozen, you can place it into the drawers. • The SuperFrost function turns OFF automatically. Depending on the quantity of food placed in the freezer, this will normally be between 30 and maximum of 65 hours. The freezing process is now complete; the SuperFrost LED will turn OFF, and the freezer will change back to normal energy-saving operation. sausages bread mushrooms game poultry beef/veal Figure 7 Freezer Tray* - Figure 8 The freezer tray allows individual freezing of berries, herbs, vegetables and other small goods. It prevents foods from freezing together. Items being frozen will retain more of their shape, and it will be easier to remove exactly the right quantity later for use. 1. Spread the items out loosely on the tray. 2. Suspend the freezer tray in one of the top drawers. Freeze for 10 to 12 hours, then transfer to a freezer bag or container and place in a drawer. 3. To defrost, spread the frozen items out loosely. IMPORTANT You should not turn ON the SuperFrost function: • when placing frozen food in the freezer; • when freezing up to approximately 4-1/2 lbs (2 kg) fresh food daily. Figure 8 * Depending on model and options 12 BFI/BF1055 (7082 244-00) 7082_244_00_Use Manual.qxd 10/21/2004 8:05 AM Page 13 FREEZER COMPARTMENT Cold-storage Accumulators* Figure 9 The cold-storage accumulators prevent the temperature in the freezer from rising too quickly in the event of a power failure, preserving the quality of the food. To save space, you can freeze and store the coldstorage accumulators in the freezer tray. • To ensure maximum storage time in the event of a power failure, place the frozen cold-storage accumulators in the top freezer drawer on top of the food. Figure 9 * Depending on model and options BFI/BF1055 (7082 244-00) 13 7082_244_00_Use Manual.qxd 10/21/2004 8:05 AM Page 14 FREEZER COMPARTMENT - Flat portions of meat or fish can be cooked when partially thawed. Freezing and Storage Do Not Freeze: Lettuce, radishes, grapes, whole apples, pears, and fatty meat. - Vegetables can be cooked from frozen ( in half the normal time). Food to Freeze: Storage - Figure 10 Meat, game, poultry, fresh fish, vegetables, fruit, dairy products, bread, baked goods, pre-cooked meals. Each drawer and shelf can take up to 55 lbs (25 kg) of frozen food. • Pack frozen food in standard freezer bags or 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). • Blanch vegetables after washing and cutting them. (Add to boiling water for 2-3 minutes, remove and quickly cool down in cold water. If you blanch with a steamer or microwave oven, please follow the operating instructions.) • Do not salt or season fresh food or blanched vegetables before freezing. Only lightly salt and season other food. Some spices can alter their flavor intensity. • Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain carbonated drinks as they might burst. Drinks can be cooled down quickly, but take the bottles out of the freezer compartment after an hour at the most. By removing a drawer and a shelf you can create a double height space for big items of frozen food. This allows you to freeze things like poultry, large pieces of meat or large cakes without first having to cut them up, so they can be served “whole” afterwards. If you want to use the maximum net capacity, you can remove the drawers and store items directly on the shelves. • Always leave the bottom drawer in the appliance. If you removed the top drawer, do not cover the fan openings at the back, otherwise the freezer will not work properly. Removing Drawers Pull forward until the drawer stops and lift out. Removing and Installing the Shelves Lift the shelf up at the front and pull out. To install, proceed in reverse and simply push the shelf in as far as it will go. • Always store identical food items together to avoid the door being open for unnecessary long periods and to save energy. • Do not exceed storage times given. • Only take out as much food as needed for thawing. Cook food which has been thawed as quickly as possible. Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways: Figure 10 - in a microwave oven - in the refrigerator: the safer way to thaw food because there is less chance of bacteria growth. Use this method for high density food such as roasts or poultry. * Depending on model and options 14 BFI/BF1055 (7082 244-00) 7082_244_00_Use Manual.qxd 10/21/2004 8:05 AM Page 15 ICEMAKER To Start the IceMaker - Figure 11 The IceMaker will only work if the combined refrigerator-freezer is connected to the electrical outlet. It will only make ice cubes if the freezer compartment is operating. The IceMaker is in the top left drawer in the freezer compartment of the combined refrigerator-freezer. You can identify this drawer by its labeling “IceMaker.” To turn on The production capacity depends on the temperature inside the freezer compartment. The lower the temperature, the more ice can be produced over a period of time. The ice cubes fall out of the icemaker into the drawer. When the ice reaches a certain level in the drawer, the appliance stops producing ice automatically. If you need a large quantity of ice you can change out the drawer to the right with the complete “IceMaker” drawer. When you close the drawer the icemaker will immediately start production. • Pull out the drawer.

Always clean and polish in the direction of the grain and finish. Defrosting - Figure 13 The BioFresh compartment defrosts automatically. The water that forms on the rear wall drains into a reservoir at the back of the appliance and evaporates automatically through the compressor heat. To clean the storage shelves: Lift the shelves, slide forward and remove. Figure 13 Ensure the defrost water can flow freely through the drain hole in the rear wall (Figure 13). Always insert shelves with the guard bar at the back pointing upwards, otherwise food may freeze onto the rear wall. The glass shelves are designed to prevent the shelves from being pulled out accidentally. Cleaning - Figure 14 To clean the BioFresh drawers: ! WARNING • To prevent possible injury due to an electrical shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord or turn OFF the circuit breaker before replacing the interior light bulb(s) or cleaning the appliance. • To avoid injury or damage, DO NOT use steam cleaning equipment to clean the appliance. Clean the appliance by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent. DO NOT place components in a dishwasher to clean. DO NOT use abrasive or scouring sponges. DO NOT use concentrated cleaning agents. NEVER use abrasive or acid cleaners or chemical solvents. Keep your stainless steel looking new by cleaning with a good quality stainless steel cleaner or polish monthly. High quality stainless steel cleaners and conditioners are commercially available. Pull the drawers out and grip at the back, and lift out. To reinstall: • place the drawers on the extended rails, the rails must align with the front of the drawer and slide in. • pull the drawer cover out towards you. When reinstalling, make sure the bearing pins snap into place in the grooves. The drawer and the cover must be flush with one another vertically. Clean the drain hole (Fig. 14) in the rear wall frequently. If necessary, clean with a thin object, like a cotton swab or something similar. • Ensure no cleaning water penetrates into the electrical components or ventilation grille. • Dry all parts well with a cloth.
