Operating tips
■ After the appliance has been switched
on, it may take several hours until the
set temperature has been reached.
Do not put any food in the appliance
beforehand.
■ The fully automatic No Frost system
ensures that the freezer compartment
remains free of ice. Defrosting is not
required.
■ Thesides ofthehousing are some-
times heated slightly. This prevents
condensation in the area of the door
seal.
■ If the freezer compartment door
cannot be immediately re-opened after
it has been closed, wait until
the resulting low pressure has
equalised.
Setting
the temperature
Fig. 2
Freezer compartment
The temperature can be set from -16 °C
to -26 °C.
Keep pressing temperature setting
button 3 until the required freezer
compartment temperature is set.
The value last selected is saved. The set
temperature is indicated on display 4.
We recommend a factory setting
of -18 °C in the freezer compartment.
Alarm function
In the following cases an alarm may be
actuated.
Door alarm
The door alarm (continuous sound)
switches on if the appliance door is open
for longer than one minute. Close
the door to switch off the warning signal.
Thaw alarm
When the alarm button 5 is pressed, the
temperature display indicates for five
seconds the warmest temperature
reached in the freezer compartment.
Then this value is deleted.
The display 4 indicates the set freezer
compartment temperature without
flashing.
Henceforth the “warmest temperature”
will be redefined and saved.
Temperature alarm
The temperature alarm switches on if the
freezer compartment is too warm and the
frozen food is at risk of thawing.
The temperature display 4 flashes
and the alarm button 5 is lit.
The alarm may switch on without any risk
to the frozen food:
■ when the appliance is switched on,
■ when large quantities of fresh food are
placed in the appliance,
■ if the freezer compartment door is
open too long.
