Malfunctions
You may be able to rectify the following faults by checking
the possible causes yourself:
• Appliance does not function:
– Is the appliance switched on?
– Is the plug correctly fitted in the mains socket?
– Is the fuse intact?
• Loud running noise:
– Is the appliance set up firmly on the floor?
– Does the appliance cause nearby items of furniture or objects to
vibrate? Please note that noises caused by the refrigerant circuit
cannot be avoided.
• The temperature is not low enough:
– Is the temperature setting correct (see "Setting the temperature")?
– Have excessive amounts of fresh food been placed in the appli-
ance?
– Does the separately installed thermometer show the correct read-
ing?
– Is the ventilation system working properly?
– Is the appliance set up too close to a heat source?
If none of the above causes
apply and you cannot rectify
the fault yourself, contact the
nearest customer service de-
partment stating the type des-
ignation

, service number

and appliance number

as
indicated on the type plate.
The position of the type plate

of this unit so as to ensure
sufficient ventilation. The
area of ventilation under-
neath the ceiling should be
at least 300 cm 2 .
When setting up the ap-
pliance next to a wall

Shutting your appliance down
If your appliance is to be shut down for any length of time, switch
it off and disconnect the plug or switch off or unscrew the fuse.
Clean the appliance and leave the door open in order to prevent
unpleasant smells.
The appliance complies with the relevant safety regulations and
EC Directives 2004/108/EC and 2006/95/EC.
Cleaning
Before cleaning, always switch off the appliance. Disconnect
from the mains or switch off or unscrew the fuse.
• First clean the side panels with a conventional stainless-steel
cleaner. Subsequently, apply the enclosed stainless-steel care
product evenly onto the surfaces in the same direction in which
they have been ground or polished.
• Only clean the door surfaces with a clean and soft cloth. If neces-
sary, moisten the cloth (water + detergent). Alternatively, use a
micro-fibre cloth.
- Do not use abrasive sponges or scourers, do not use concentrated
cleaning agents and never use cleaning agents containing sand,
chloride or acid or chemical solvents, as these would damage the
surfaces and could cause corrosion.
• Clean the inside and equipment with lukewarm water and a little
detergent.
Do not use steam cleaners because of the risk
of injury and damage.
• Ensure that no cleaning water penetrates into the electrical com-
ponents or ventilation grille.
• Dry all parts well with a cloth.
• Clean the drain hole in the refrigerator compartment with a thin
object, e.g. cotton swab or the like.
• Do not damage or remove the type plate on the inside of the ap-
pliance. It is very important for servicing purposes.
Notes on freezing
• Pack food which you are freezing yourself in quantities appropriate
to your household. To ensure that the food freezes right through,
the following quantities should not be exceeded per pack age:
fruit, vegetables: up to 1 kg, meat: up to 2.5 kg.
• Do not allow fresh food which is to be frozen to come into contact
with food already frozen. Always keep packs dry in order to avoid
them sticking together.
• Always write the date and contents on the pack and do not exceed
the stated storage time for the food.
• Do not freeze bottles and cans which contain carbonated drinks
as they might burst.
• Only take out as much food as is immediately required for thawing.
Use food which has been thawed in prepared meals as quickly
as possible.
Frozen food can be thawed in the following ways: in a fan
oven, in a microwave oven, at room temperature, in the refrigerator.
