• Always comply with the information given on

the packaging about storage.

Making ice cubes

Fill the ice cube mould to two thirds with water.
Place the ice cube mould level on the bottom of one
of the freezer compartments 8.

Operating noises

You may possibly hear a faint gurgle when the ap-
pliance pumps the coolant in the cooling system
through the coils and pipes on the back of the ap-
pliance.

When the compressor is working, you can hear a
slight rustling or pulsation.
The temperature controller controls the compressor
and you may hear a slight click when it is switched
on or off. All of this is completely normal and does
not indicate a malfunction of the appliance!

Saving energy

• The cooler the ambient air, the less energy the

appliance has to consume to deliver the desired
cooling capacity. Accordingly, never locate the
unit next to sources of heat such as radiators,
stoves or dishwashers. Provide for sufficient venti-
lation.

• Do not leave the door open for longer than ne-

cessary. If you do, warm air will flow into the in-
terior, which will lead to increased ice formation
and cause an increase in energy consumption.

• Take care to ensure that no objects, or incom-

pletely closed drawers, in the freezer compart-
ments 8 or the storage compartments 7 impe-
de the proper closing of the door.

Power failure

• If the power supply should suddenly fail, immedi-

ately disconnect the power cable from the mains
power socket. After 5 minutes you can re-connect
it, regardless of whether the power supply is
working again or not.

• Should a power cut be planned, and therefore

have a lead time, we recommend turning the
temperature regulator 5 to the position "max"
2 - 3 hours beforehand and to switch the "Super-
Freeze" function on.

• During the power cut avoid any unnecessary

opening of the appliance door and place no
foods in for storage.

• If the power cut lasts for a long time, when the

power is switched back on check to see if melt
water has collected on the bottoms of the freezer
compartments 8 or on the bottoms of the storage
compartments 7. In this case, you must wipe the
water up with a soft, dry cloth so that the foods
do not freeze to these surfaces.

• Check the condition of the foods. Should they

be slighly or even fully thawed, they should be
removed from the appliance and consumed
promptly.
