• Remove the freezer drawers.
• Leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb inside.
• Cut off the power cable from the
discarded refrigerator. Discard
separately from the refrigerator.
Following these instructions reduces the
possibility of causing personal injury,
especially to children playing.
Contact the trash collection agency in
your area for additional information.
Electrical Safety
Connect this appliance to a 110-120 VAC, 15 amp
circuit that is controlled by a circuit breaker or
fuse. This appliance should have its own separate
grounded circuit. Do not use an extension cord.
The power cord is equipped with a three-prong
(grounding) plug for your protection against
possible shock hazards. To maintain this protection:
• Do not modify the plug by removing the round
grounding prong.
• Do not use a two-prong adapter. Where a two-
prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact
a qualified electrician and have it replaced with
a three-prong receptacle in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
• Do not use a power cord that is frayed or
damaged.

safeTy
• To prevent possible injury due to an electrical
shock, be sure to disconnect the power cord or
turn off the circuit breaker before cleaning the
appliance.
• To avoid injury or damage to the appliance, do
not use steam cleaning equipment to clean the
appliance.
• Do not operate the refrigerator in the presence
of explosive fumes.
• In the event of a power outage, minimize
opening the refrigerator door(s). Protect the food
either by placing dry ice on top of the packages
or using a local frozen food locker if the power
failure is of a long duration. Do not attempt to
re-freeze any previously frozen food that has
thawed.
• To avoid possible injury, only adjust an empty
shelf. Do not attempt to adjust a shelf with food
on it.
• To protect the refrigerator from possible damage,
allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to 1 hour in
place before turning the electricity on. This
allows the refrigerant and system lubrication to
reach equilibrium.

Temperature Display - Figure 4
In normal operation, the following settings will be
displayed:
• the average refrigerator temperature
• the warmest frozen food temperature.
When starting up for the first time or
when the appliance is warm, dashes
will appear in the freezer temperature
display, until the temperature in the
freezer compartment is 32°F (0°C).
The display will flash:
• if you change the temperature or
• if the temperature rises by several degrees, indi-
cating cold loss, e.g. if you place fresh, “warm”
food in the freezer or if you remove or repack
frozen food, the temperature may rise for a short
time due to warm air flowing into the freezer.
• If “F1” to “F5” appears in the display, the appli-
ance has a fault. Have the fault number available
when you contact the customer service depart-
ment.
Ventilation - Figure 4
The ventilation switch is used for re-circulated cool
air:
You can use the switch as required to:
• chill large quantities of fresh food fast.
• keep the temperature evenly distributed through-
out the entire refrigerator compartment. The air
will circulate more intensively, keeping all the
different areas in the compartment at the same
temperature and ensuring all the food inside is
chilled at the same temperature.
We recommended you use the ventilation fan if:
• room temperatures are too high (approximately
95°F [35°C] or higher).
• the air humidity is high, during high heat and
humidity.
Turning on: Touch the Ventilation icon briefly so the
LED turns on.
Turning off: Touch the Ventilation icon again until
the LED turns off.
Audible alarm signal - Figure 4
The audible alarm signal helps to protect frozen
food and to save energy.
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 flashes 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.
Power Failure/Frost-Control
Display - Figure 4
If the power failure LED is lit, this means the
freezer temperature has risen too high during the
last few hours or days due to a power failure. The
freezer temperature display flashes at the same
time.
• If you touch the Alarm icon now, 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 touching the
Alarm icon again.

Freezing
Fresh food should be frozen completely and as rap-
idly as possible. This is provided by the Superfrost
feature and ensures that the nutritional value,
appearance and flavor of the food remains intact.
Information System - Figure 17
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.
(1) Pre-cooked meals, Ice-cream
(2) Fish, Pork
(3) Vegetables, Fruit
(4) Sausages, Bread
(5) Mushrooms, Game
(6) Poultry, Beef
Interior Light
The interior light is located at the left and right in
the refrigerator compartment (Figure 16). It turns
on if the refrigerator door is opened.
Furthermore a lightbar is integrated in the bottom
of the refrigerator door. This turns on if the freezer
door is opened to illuminate the freezer compart-
ment.
The interior light emits class 1M laser
radiation. DO NOT look directly at light or
through any optical instruments when the
light cover is removed. Severe eye injury
can occur.
The light turns off automatically if one of the doors
has been opened for approximately 15 minutes.
The audible alarm sounds at the same time.
If one light is not lit, it is defective.
The interior light may only be replaced
by the customer service technician or by
competent skilled personnel!
Do not try to change the defective lighting
yourself!

Freezing and Storage
• 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 pack-
age 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
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.
• Only take out as much food as needed for thaw-
ing. Cook food which has been thawed as quick-
ly as possible. Frozen food can be thawed in the
following ways:
- 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.
Freezing with Superfrost - Figure 18
• Touch the Superfrost icon briefly
so the LED turns on.
The freezer temperature will decrease and the
appliance will change to the lowest temperature.
• For small amounts of frozen food, it is normally
sufficient to turn on Superfrost six hours before-
hand. 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.
• 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 opera-
tion.
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.

- Does a separately installed thermometer show the correct reading?
- Is the ventilation system working properly?
- Is the appliance set up too close to a heat source?
- Is the appliance standing firmly on the floor, or does the compressor
cause nearby items of furniture or objects to vibrate? If necessary, move
the appliance slightly, align by adjusting the adjustable feet, or move
bottles and containers apart.
If a problem occurs during operation, check whether it is due to an operating error.
Please note that even during the warranty period, some repair costs may be your responsibility.
You may be able to correct the following faults by checking the possible causes yourself:
Problem Possible Cause and Remedy
Freezer temperature
display shows two
dashes ‘‘- -”.
The freezer temperature display will only show temperatures that are
below freezing. When initially starting the freezer it will not be below
freezing. It will take three to five hours (depending on ambient conditions)
for freezing temperatures to be achieved and thus displayed numerically.
This may also occur after a power failure.

DefrosTing/VaCaTion
Defrosting
Refrigerator compartment:
The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatical-
ly. The water that forms on the rear wall drains into
a reservoir at the back of the appliance and evapo-
rates automatically through the compressor heat.
Freezer compartment:
The No-frost system automatically defrosts the
freezer compartment. Any moisture will collect on
the evaporator and freeze. It will periodically defrost
and evaporate.
Vacation Tips
Short vacations:
It is not necessary to turn off the refrigerator and
freezer if you will be away for less than four weeks.
• Use all perishables.
• Freeze other items.
Long vacations:
If you will be away for a month or more:
• Remove all food from the refrigerator and freezer
compartments.
• Turn off the refrigerator and freezer compart-
ments.
• Clean the appliance. Refer to Cleaning.
• Leave the door open to prevent unpleasant
odors. This will also keep mold from building up.
