Setting the temperature
CAUTION
Health hazard!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. The
temperature may increase in the freez-
er which may cause the foods stored
within to spoil more quickly.
■
Always ensure the prescribed ambi-
ent temperature is maintained (see
“Intended use“ on page EN-4).
If you set a lower temperature, you will
require greater refrigeration perfor-
mance. This increases energy con-
sumption.
Switching on for the first time
The standard temperature setting for when
the appliance is first switched on is -18 °C.
Change temperature
You can set the temperature to between -14 °C
and -24 °C.
• Press the ‘Set Temp’ button (12) repeat-
edly until the desired temperature is dis-
played.

The temperature is reduced by 1 °C each
time you press the button. When the set-
ting reaches –22 °C, the display jumps to
–14 °C when pressed again.
The ideal temperature for the freezer is -18 °C.
Activating quick freezing
The ‘Quick freezing’ operating mode rapidly
cools the freezer to -24°C.
• To activate quick freezing, press the
‘Super Freeze’ button (13) in unlocked
state.
The indicator on the control panel will
light up.
Deactivating quick freezing
Quick freezing is automatically deactivated
after 52 hours.
• To deactivate quick freezing manually,
press the ‘Super Freeze’ button (13) in
unlocked state.
The indicator will go out.
The temperature display will return to the
original setting.

CAUTION
Health hazard!
Insufficient cooling can cause stored
food to spoil.
This could lead to a risk of food poison-
ing when consumed.
■
Note that the shelf life of stored food
may be shortened due to a rise in the
temperature inside the appliance.
■
Remove stored food from the appli-
ance – even when only switching off
the appliance temporarily – and store
it in a sufficiently cool place or in an-
other cooling appliance.
■
Consume thawed and defrosted
foods immediately, do not refreeze.
