It is very important to set the correct temperature for storing food in the appliance. Micro-organisms will cause food which is not stored at the correct temperature to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influences the growth rate of these micro-organisms. Reducing the temperature reduces their growth rate. The temperature in the appliance will rise:[...]

Setting the temperature The temperature is set with the On/Off and temperature selector dial. ^ Turn it to a setting between 1 and 7. The higher the setting, the lower the temperature in the appliance. A middle range setting is usually sufficient. However, if frozen food is to be stored in the freezer section then a setting of between 4 and 7 is re[...]

Different storage zones Due to the natural circulation of the air in the appliance, there are different temperature zones in the refrigerator. Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the appliance. Make use of the different zones when placing food in the appliance. Warmest area The warmest area is in the top section at the front and in the d[...]

Food which is not suitable for storing in the refrigerator Not all food is suitable for storing in a refrigerator at temperatures below 5°C as some food is sensitive to cold. The appearance, consistency, taste and / or the vitamin content of certain types of food can be adversely affected by being stored in too cold a place. Food which does not to[...]

Storing food correctly Food should generally be stored covered or packaged. This will prevent food smells from affecting other food, food from drying out, and also any cross-contamination of bacteria. This is particularly important for protein-based food such as meat or fish. The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be avoided by setting the[...]

Moving the shelves The shelves can be adjusted according to the height of the food. ^ Raise the shelf, and pull it forwards slightly until the notch at the side is in line with the shelf support. It can then be raised or lowered to the required level. The raised edge at the back of the shelf must face upwards to prevent food from touching the back [...]

Maximum freezing capacity To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer section freezes through to the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freezing capacity must not be exceeded.

Ice cubes ^ Fill the ice tray three quarters full with water and place it at the bottom of the freezer section. ^ Once frozen, use a blunt instrument, for example a spoon handle, to remove the ice tray from the freezer section. ^ Ice cubes can be removed easily from the tray by twisting the tray gently or by holding it under cold running water for [...]

Refrigerator section The refrigerator section defrosts automatically. Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the refrigerator section whilst it is in use. You do not need to remove this, as it will defrost and evaporate automatically with the warmth generated by the compressor. The condensate is drained away via a channel and drain h[...]

To defrost Carry out the defrosting procedure as quickly as possible. The longer the food is left out at room temperature, the faster it goes off. Do not use a steam-cleaning appliance to aid the defrosting process. Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. Do not place electric heaters or candles etc. inside the appliance [...]

Make sure that water cannot get into the On/Off and temperature selector dial, the light or the ventilation gaps. Do not let water get into the condensate channel and drain hole when cleaning. Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to defrost or clean the appliance. Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. The data plate lo[...]

^ Clean the condensate channel and drain hole frequently, so that condensate can drain away unhindered. Use a straw or similar to clear the drain if necessary. ^ After cleaning, wipe the interior and accessories with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
