The most important characteristic

of your appliance

• The appliance can be used as a freezing unit or as a refrigerator

depending on requirement. For this purpose, the operation mode

"Freezing" or the operation mode "Cooling" can be selected on the

appliance.

– In the operation mode "Freezing", the appliance is usable for

freezing and deep-temperature storage with temperatures from

-15 °C up to -24 °C.

– In the operation mode "Cooling", this appliance can be operated as

a "long fresh" cooling unit with temperatures of 0 °C to +2 °C,

whereby a dry cabinet interior climate is attained through the no-

frost (frost-free) technology. The appliance can also be used in the

adjustable temperature range of up to +16 °C as a chilled cupboard

for food and drink. Naturally, it is also usable as a "normal"

refrigerator for the temperature range of +2 °C to +5 °C.

• COOLMATIC/FROSTMATIC can be selected depending on purpose and

need.

– The COOLMATIC function is suitable for fast cooling larger

quantities when in the refrigerator mode, e.g. for drinks or salads

during a party.

Thereby, a DESIRED temperature of +2 °C is automatically preset.

After 6 hours have expired, the COOLMATIC function is terminated

automatically.

– The FROSTMATIC function caters for quick freezing of fresh

foodstuffs and protects at the same time the foodstuff already

stored against undesired temperature increase when in the freezer

mode. The electronics of the appliance recognises automatically,

when the quick freezing mode can be completed, and automatically

switches off the FROSTMATIC function.(Depending upon the

quantity to be frozen after 30 up to maximum 51 hours).

• The no-frost (frost free) system enables both the freezing of fresh

foodstuff as well as the storage of readily frozen or cooled foodstuff

by cold air. An evaporator cools the air in the interior space of the

appliance, which is circulated and uniformly distributed by a

ventilator. This uniformly circulating air-flow creates for a dry

climate, low temperature fluctuations and low temperature

differences in the entire appliance interior. The moisture in the air

condenses as frost on the evaporator. The evaporator thaws/defrosts -

automatically, as soon as this is necessary. The melted water is
