Switching the sensor tone on/off The tone which sounds each time a sensor is touched can be deactivated. ^ Touch the access sensor so that it is highlighted in yellow. ^ Take note of the position of the X sensor (but do not touch it!). ^ Touch the access sensor until it is highlighted in white and all of the other sensors are no longer lit up.
Switching off for longer periods of time If the appliance is not going to be used for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst on holiday: ^ switch the appliance off, ^ disconnect it from the mains.
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.
When you have adjusted the temperature, wait for approx. 6 hours if the appliance is not very full and for approx. 24 hours if the appliance is full before checking the temperature display, as it will take this long for the appliance to reach the temperature.
^ By touching the X sensor, you can now set the temperature to be displayed in Fahrenheit or Celsius. †0 : Temperature in Fahrenheit †1 : Temperature in Celsius † –: Return to menu ^ After selecting a new setting, touch the access sensor to confirm your choice.
Your appliance has been fitted with a warning system which ensures that the temperature in the appliance cannot rise unnoticed and to avoid energy being wasted if the door is left open. Activating the alarm system The alarm system is always active. It does not have to be switched on manually.
Door alarm The alarm will sound if the door is left open for more than 5 minutes. The sensor for switching the temperature or door alarm off will also light up. The alarm will stop and the sensor for switching the temperature or door alarm off will go out as soon as the door is closed.
Super freeze Switch on the Super freeze function before putting fresh food into the freezer. This helps food to freeze quickly and retain its nutrients, vitamins, flavours and appearance. Super freeze is not necessary: – when placing food in the freezer that is already frozen.
Moving the shelves The shelves can be adjusted according to the height of the food. ^ Hold the shelf on both sides and raise it slightly so that it can be lifted over the catches at the back. ^ Pull the shelf forwards. ^ Place the shelf at the required level, ensuring that it has engaged in the catches at the back.
Freezer baskets The freezer baskets can also be removed for cleaning. ^ Pull the freezer basket out as far as it will go. There is a safety catch on the door opening side which needs to be turned to a horizontal position in order to remove the basket.
Maximum freezing capacity To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer freezes through to the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freezing capacity must not be exceeded. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24-hour period is given on the data plate: "Freezing capacity .
Home freezing Only freeze fresh food which is in a good condition. Hints on home freezing – The following types of food are suitable for freezing: Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, vegetables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy products, pastry, leftovers, egg yolks, egg whites and a range of pre-cooked meals.
^ Make a note of the contents and the date of freezing on the packaging. Before placing food in the freezer ^ When freezing more than 2 kg of fresh food, switch on the Super freeze function for some time before placing the food in the freezer (see "Super freeze").
Never re-freeze partially or fully defrosted food. Consume defrosted food as soon as possible as it will lose its nutritional value and spoil if left for too long.
The ice/water dispenser must be connected to the mains water supply (see "Mains water connection"). Use a suitable container to dispense water and ice cubes into. Danger of glass splinters. Do not hold your hand under the ice/water dispenser spout.
Switching on the ice/water dispenser Rinse the ice/water dispenser pipework before using it for the first time. ^ Open the appliance door. ^ Make sure that the ice cube container is correctly located underneath the ice cube maker. The ice cube container must be completely shut for ice cubes to be produced.
Chilled water ^ Place a suitable container underneath the ice/water dispenser spout. ^ Touch and keep your finger on the chilled water sensor. Chilled water will be dispensed from the spout as long as the sensor is being touched. After a while dispensing will stop automatically.
If the ice/water dispenser is not used again within 2 minutes or if the door is opened, the ice/water dispenser will switch to standby mode automatically and the lighting will go out. After it has been activated again, it can take a few seconds before chilled water and ice can be dispensed again.
Switching off the ice/water dispenser The appliance must be disconnected from the mains water supply a few hours before the ice/water dispenser is switched off. ^ Open the appliance door. ^ Touch the On/Off sensor for the ice/water to highlight it in white.
Ice cube separation To prevent the ice cubes and crushed ice from freezing together and blocking the dispensing spout, the spindle in the ice cube container moves at regular intervals to separate them. You can deactivate this function if the noise disturbs you.
This appliance is equipped with a "Frost free" system. The freezer defrosts automatically. The moisture generated by defrosting collects in the condensor and is automatically dissipated by the condensor from time to time.
Make sure that water cannot get into the electronic unit or into the ventilation gaps. Do not use steam cleaning apparatus to clean the appliance. Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed.
Aluminium frames The frames on the shelves inside the appliance and on the door baskets are made from aluminium. Aluminium is affected by the way that light falls on it, by the surrounding environment and by the angle you observe it from. It is also susceptible to scratching.
Ventilation gaps ^ The ventilation gaps should be cleaned on a regular basis with a brush or vacuum cleaner. A build-up of dust will increase the energy consumption of the appliance. Door seals Do not use any oils or grease on the door seal as these will cause the seal to deteriorate and become porous over time.
Repairs to electrical appliances should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
. . . The temperature display for the freezer shows -18 °C, even though I have selected a higher temperature? This is not a fault. If the ice maker is switched on and the room temperature is less than +18 °C, the temperature is automatically set to -18 °C.
. . . the reminder to change the water filter indicator flashes red. ^ When the reminder to change the water filter flashes red, this indicates that the filter needs to be changed now. ...T h e 0 symbol is flashing in the ice/water dispenser control panel.
Remember it can take up to 10 hours to produce the first ice cubes. . . . the ice/water dispenser is only producing small ice cubes. ^ Are other appliances that are connected to the mains water supply being used at the same time? Avoid using the dishwasher, washing machine etc at the same time.
