Ice pack
Fig. +
If a power failure or malfunction occurs,
the ice packs can be used to slow down
the thawing process. The longest storage
time is obtained by placing the ice pack
directly on the food in the top
compartment.
The ice packs can also be used to cool
food temporarily, e.g. in a cold bag.
Ice cube tray
Fig. ,
Fill the ice cube tray ¾ full of water
and place in the freezer compartment.
If the ice tray is stuck to the freezer
compartment, loosen with a blunt
implement only (spoon-handle).
To loosen the ice cubes, twist the ice tray
slightly or hold briefly under flowing
water.
Sticker “OK”
(not all models)
The “OK” temperature monitor
can be used to determine temperatures
below +4 °C. Gradually reduce
the temperature if the sticker
does not indicate “OK”.
Note
When the appliance is switched on,
it may take 12 hours until
the temperature is reached.

Disconnecting the appliance
If you do not use the appliance
for a prolonged period:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Pull out mains plug or switch off fuse.
3. Clean the appliance.

Defrosting
Refrigerator compartment
Defrosting is actuated automatically.
The condensation flows
into the evaporation
area of the appliance via
the condensation channels
and the drainage hole.
Freezer compartment
The freezer compartment does not
defrost automatically, otherwise
the frozen food would start thawing. A
layer of frost in the freezer compartment
impairs refrigeration of the frozen food
and increases power consumption.
Remove the layer of hoarfrost regularly.
