Operating tips
■
After the appliance has been switched
on, it may take several hours until the
set temperature has been reached.
Do not put any food in the appliance
beforehand.
■
The fully automatic NoFrost system
ensures that the freezer compartment
remains free of ice. Defrosting is not
required.
■
The sides of the housing are
sometimes heated slightly. This
prevents condensation in the area
of the door seal.
■
If the freezer compartment door
cannot be immediately re-opened after
it has been closed, wait until the
resulting low pressure has equalised.

Alarm functions
Fig. "
Door alarm
The door alarm (continuous sound)
switches on if the appliance door is open
for longer than one minute. Close the
door to switch off the warning signal.
Thaw alarm
When the alarm button 5 is pressed,
the temperature display indicates for five
seconds the warmest temperature
reached in the freezer compartment.
Then this value is deleted.
The display 4 indicates the set freezer
compartment temperature without
flashing.
Henceforth the “warmest temperature”
will be redefined and saved.
Temperature alarm
The temperature alarm switches on if the
freezer compartment is too warm and the
frozen food is at risk of thawing.
The temperature display 4 flashes and
the alarm button 5 is lit.
The alarm may switch on without any risk
to the frozen food:
■
when the appliance is switched on,
■
when large quantities of fresh food are
placed in the appliance,
■
if the freezer compartment door is
open too long.
