Starting up - Setting the temperature

The temperature regulator is in the refrigerator com-

partment on the upper right. It is also the ON/OFF-

switch.

Position "0" = Refrigeration off

Position "1" = Warmest interior temperature

Position "6" = Coldest interior temperature

1. Plug the mains plug into the mains socket. When

the door is opened the interior lighting comes on.

2. Set the required temperature by turning the tem-

perature regulator.

The compressor starts and then runs automati-

cally.

3. If you want a higher or lower temperature, turn the

temperature regulator to a warmer or cooler set-

ting respectively.

Note: When the setting is changed, the compressor

does not start immediately if automatic defrosting is

currently taking place.

Goods to be refrigerated can be loaded

immediately after switching on, because the

storage temperature in the refrigerator is

quickly reached.

Important! Wait until the freezer compart-

ment has reached a temperature of –18 °C,

before storing frozen food.

Note: From a food science point of view,

+5 °C for the refrigerator compartment and -

18 °C for the freezer compartment should be

considered cold enough as a storage tem-

perature.

The following effects are of significance in respect of

the interior temperature:

– Ambient temperature;

– Quantity and temperature of the food stored;

– Frequency with which the door is opened and

how long it is left open

– A defect in the appliance.

The temperature regulator setting may therefore

need to be adjusted to suit the specific conditions.

Recommendet settings:

Examples:

Ambient

Temperature

Approx. 10 °C

Approx. 16 °C

Approx. 25 °C

Approx. 32 °C

Approx. 38 °C

Note: At the setting given under „recommendet set-

tings" the fridge has an average temperature of

approx. +5 °C; the average temperature in the freezer

compartment is then approx. –18 °C or colder. These

figures apply at ambient temperatures from +10 °C to

+38 °C.

At higher ambient temperatures, fresh food is prop-

erly frozen with the regulator set to a range about "2",

without the fridge becoming too cold.

Important!

High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer

days) and a cold setting on the temperature regulator

(position"5" to "6") can cause the compressor to run

continuously.

Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the

compressor must run continuously to maintain the

low temperature in the appliance. The fridge will not

be able to defrost since automatic defrosting of the

fridge is only possible when the compressor is not

running (see also "Defrosting" section). The result is

the build up of a thick layer of frost on the fridge rear

wall.

If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back

to a warmer setting (position "4" to "5"). At this setting

the compressor will be switched on and off as usual

and automatic defrosting recommenced.
