Move and fasten the upper door hinge to the op-
posite appliance side after unscrewing the hinge
pin and inserting it from the other hinge side.
Put on the hinge cover (*delivery scope) and the
blanking cap.
Dismount the door handle and attach it to the
corresponding other door outer side. Refer to the
instructions in "Assembling the door handle".
Transfer the cover caps on the exposed holes to
the respective other door outer side.
Check that the door is optimally aligned both vertical-
ly and horizontally to ensure smooth opening and
closing of the door.
Startup / Operation
Prior to first use
CAUTION:
After transport, the appliance should be left standing
upright for four hours before connecting to the power
supply. Nonobservance could lead to malfunction of
the cooling system and causes an appliance break-
down.
Clean the appliance interior including all accessory
parts. Consider the instructions which we provide in
the chapter “Cleaning and Maintenance”.
Starting the appliance
Connect the appliance to the power supply.
Operate the temperature control. See also the
section "Settings".
Settings
Setting [ 0 ] means that the appliance is in the off
state. Turn the temperature control clockwise, start-
ing from this setting; the appliance will turn on auto-
matically.
The power levels [ 1 – 7 ] regulate the different val-
ues of the internal temperature.
Setting 0:
Off state
Setting 1: Lowest setting (warmest inside temp.)
Setting 7: Highest setting (coldest inside temp.)
Note that the temperature will change depending on
the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening
and the amount of food in the appliance.
During initial operation, turn the temperature control
to the highest setting first, until the appliance has
reached the desired operating temperature. After-
wards it is recommended to turn the control back to a
medium setting; correcting the temperature at a later
point would then be easier.
NOTE:
In generally a low to medium power level works best
for an optimized food storage. A high power level
also increases the energy consumption.
Interior light
When opening the appliance door, the interior light
will turn on automatically.
Storing food
NOTE: Recommendation!
To guarantee that the temperature is low enough,
you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before
initial loading foods.
CAUTION:
Always pay attention to the storage instructions on
the sales packaging.
Always store food covered or packed to prevent dry-
ing-out and transfer of odor or taste onto other food
items. You may pack the food with e.g.
Polyethylene plastic bags or foil
Plastic bowl with lid
Special plastic cover with elastic strip
Aluminum foil
