1. Set the temperature controller (12) to a
setting of between “1” and “7”.
The appliance is then switched on. The
compressor starts to work, the refrigerant
flows through the pipes and a quiet hum-
ming sound can be heard. The interior light
will switch on as soon as the door is opened
and will switch off if the door is closed.
Operation
2. If the appliance is making unusual noises,
check that it is stable and remove any ob-
jects that may be on top of it.
Switching off
3. Set the temperature controller (12) to
“Off”.
The compressor is switched off. The appli-
ance doesn’t refrigerate. The interior light
continues to function.
4. To switch the appliance off completely,
pull out the mains plug.
5. If the appliance is switched off, leave the
door open slightly to avoid mould forma-
tion.
Setting the temperature
WARNING
Health hazard!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. This
can then lead to an increase in temper-
ature in the fridge and freezer compart-
ment.
■
Always adhere to the prescribed am-
bient temperature (see “Intended
use” on page EN-4).
If you set a lower temperature, you will
need more refrigeration capacity. This
increases the energy consumption.
With the temperature controller (12) you can
set the temperature in the refrigerator/freezer.
• First select a medium setting.
• If, for example in summer, the ambient
temperature increases, so select a lower
setting accordingly.
