[. . . ] These operating instructions are for use with several technically comparable models with varying accessories. Please observe the notes which apply to your model. 1 Notes which are important for your safety or for the proper functioning of the appliance are stressed with a warning triangle and/or with signal words (Warning!, Caution!, Attention!). Please observe the following carefully. 1. Numbered instructions guide you step by step in the operation of the appliance. [. . . ] Remove the mains plug or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse. Clean thoroughly (see section: "Cleaning and Maintenance"). Leave the door open to avoid the build up of odours. Interior Accessories Storage Shelves Your appliance is equipped with glass storage shelves. A glass storage shelf must be inserted into the lower guide track above the fruit and vegetable trays. It must always remain in this position, so that fruits and vegetable remain fresh longer. The remaining storage shelves can be adjusted to various heights: 1. Pull the storage shelf forward until it can be tipped up or down and removed. To insert at a different height use the same procedure in reverse. Adjustment for tall goods: 1. Remove the front half of the two-part vario glass storage shelf and insert it at a different level. Space is thus gained for storage of tall goods on the underlying storage shelf. Variable Inner Door The door compartments can be pulled up and removed, and inserted at other positions as needed. 29 Correct Storage For physical reasons, there are different temperature regions in the fridge. The coldest region is on the lowest storage shelf. The water from the thawing frost is collected in the drain channel on the rear of the fridge, feed through the drain hole into the collector on the compressor, and then evaporated. The water drainage hole must be cleaned regularly (see the section "Cleaning and Maintenance". Defrosting the freezer compartment During use and when the freezer compartment door is opened, moisture is deposited in the freezer compartment as frost. Remove this frost from time to time with a soft plastic scraper, e. g. Under no circumstances use hard or pointed objects to remove frost. The freezer compartment should always be defrosted when the layer of frost has reached a thickness of approx. 4 millimetres; however at least once a year. A good time for defrosting is when the appliance is empty or contains only little food. Remove the stopper from the melt-water outlet and place a bowl underneath it to catch the meltwater. 1 · Warning!Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the exception of those recommended in these operating instructions. · Do not use defrosting sprays, they can be hazardous to your health and/or contain substances that damage plastics. Do not touch frozen food with wet hands.

They have a relatively low boiling-point, indeed so low, that the warmth from the food stored in the fridge or freezer can cause the refrigerant to boil and vaporise. [. . . ]
