[. . . ] These operating instructions are for use with several technically comparable models with varying accessories. Please observe the notes which apply to your model. 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!). This symbol guides you step by step in the operation of the appliance. [. . . ] If you require a lower temperature, select setting "3" or "4". On this setting , you can be sure the fresh food placed in the freezer compartment will be reliably frozen and that a storage temperature of -18°C will be maintained in the freezer compartment. If you want to freeze fresh food rapidly, select setting "6", ensuring that the temperature in the refrigerator compartment does not drop below 0°C. You should also promptly reset the thermostat knob to setting "3" or "4" after the freezing of the fresh food is complete. on hot summer days) and a cold setting on the thermostat (position"5" to "6") can cause the compressor to run continuously. Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the compressor must run continuously to maintain the low temperature in the appliance. The fridge will not be able to defrost since automatic defrosting of the fridge is only possible when the compressor is not running (see also "Defrosting" section). The result is the build up of a thick layer of frost on the fridge rear wall. If this happens, turn the thermostat knob back to a warmer setting (position "3" to "4"). At this setting the compressor will be switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced. 58 Interior Accessories Storage shelves/wire trays Various glass or plastic storage shelves and wire trays are included with your appliance - different models have different combinations. · Smooth the air out of the bag before sealing; air makes it easier for the frozen food to dry out. · Make flat packages, because these freeze more quickly. · Do not fill cans for frozen goods to the brim with liquid or paste­like goods, because liquids expand during freezing. Preparation of Ice Cubes Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with cold water, place it in the freezer compartment and leave to freeze. To loosen the frozen cubes, either bend the ice cube tray or hold it under running water for a few seconds. Never try to free an ice tray that is frozen to the freezer compartment using pointed or sharp edged objects, since you may damage the refrigerating circuit. Use the plastic scraper. 61 Defrosting The fridge defrosts automatically The rear wall of the fridge covers with frost when the compressor is running, and defrosts when the compressor is off. The water from the thawing frost evaporates by itself. 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 the soft plastic scraper. 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. [. . . ] Refit the light bulb cover and the screw. Put the refrigerator back into operation.
