[. . . ] Operating and installation instructions Refrigerator with Dynamic cooling K 8652 SD K 8852 SD To avoid the risk of accidents or damage to the appliance, it is essential to read these operating instructions before it is installed or used for the first time. G M. -Nr. 06 505 650 Contents Description of the appliance . 12 Switching off for longer periods of time . 17 Food which should not be stored in a refrigerator. [. . . ] Parmesan 16 Using the refrigerator efficiently Storing food correctly Store food covered or packaged. This will prevent food smells or tastes from affecting other foods, and prevent food from drying out and also any cross-contamination of bacteria. The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be avoided by setting the correct temperature and maintaining good standards of hygiene. Fruit and vegetables Fruit and vegetables can be stored loose in the vegetable containers. However, you should bear in mind that some types of vegetables give off a natural gas which speeds up the rate at which food perishes. Some fruit and vegetables react strongly to this gas and should not be stored together. Examples of fruit which produce a large amount of this natural gas are: Apples, apricots, pears, nectarines, peaches, plums, avocado pears and figs. Examples of fruit and vegetables which react strongly to the natural gases given off by other types of fruit and vegetables are: Kiwis, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, mangos, honeydew melons, apples, apricots, cucumbers, tomatoes, pears, nectarines and peaches. 17 Adjusting the interior fittings Moving the shelves The shelves can be adjusted according to the height of the food. ^ Raise the shelf at the front, pull it out half way, and then lift it out. ^ With the rear barrier facing upwards, place the shelf at the required position. The rear barrier must face upwards to prevent food from touching the back of the appliance and freezing to it. Adjusting the door shelves ^ Push the door shelf upwards, then remove it by pulling it forwards. ^ Replace the door shelf at the required position. Ensure that it is securely pushed back into position. Moving the bottle divider (depending on model) The bottle divider can be moved to the left or right to ensure that bottles are held securely in position when the door is opened and shut. Split shelf In order to accommodate tall items in the appliance, one of the shelves is divided. The front section can be pushed under the rear section. ^ Pull the front half of the glass shelf forwards slightly and then push it carefully under the rear half. 18 Automatic defrost Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the refrigerator whilst it is in use. These are automatically removed and defrosted by the appliance. The condensate is drained away via a channel and drain hole into an evaporation system at the back of the appliance. Ensure that the condensate channel and drain hole are kept clean and are never blocked so that condensate can flow away without hindrance. 19 Cleaning and care Never use cleaning agents containing abrasive substances such as sand, soda, acids or chemical solvents. "Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are also unsuitable as they can cause matt areas to appear. Make sure that water cannot get into the electronic unit or into the lighting. Cleaning the outer casing, the interior and accessories ^ Clean the appliance at least once a month using warm water and a little washing-up liquid. ^ Accessories and shelves should all be hand-washed. The butter dish is, however, dishwasher safe. [. . . ] ^ Remove plug e from the door bearing bush in the door and refit on the opposite side. ^ Hang the door in hinge pin c (remember to use washer a), then close the door. ^ Turn door support b around, pull hinge pin a out, and refit on the opposite side.
