Saving energy
If you follow the instructions below, your appliance will use less power.
Note:
The arrangement of the equipment does not affect the energy consumption of the appliance.
--------
Installing the appliance
Keep the appliance out of direct sunlight. The appliance needs to cool less frequently at low ambient tempera-
tures and therefore consumes less power.
Install the appliance as far away as possible from heating elements,
cooker and other heat sources:
At least 1¼” (3 cm) from electric or gas cookers.
At least 11¾" (30 cm) from oil or solid-fuel cookers.
Select an installation location at a room temperature of approx. 68 °F
(20 °C).
Do not cover or block the ventilation openings. The appliance needs to cool less frequently if the warm air can
escape and therefore consumes less power.
Ventilate the room daily.
Using the appliance
Open the appliance door only briefly. The air in the appliance does not warm up so intensely. The appliance
needs to cool less frequently and therefore consumes less power.
Transport purchased food in a cool bag and place in the appliance
quickly.
Allow warm food and drink to cool down before placing in the appli-
ance.
Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment to utilize the low
temperature of the frozen food.
Always leave a space between the food and the back panel. The air can circulate and the humidity will remain constant.The appli-
ance needs to cool less frequently and therefore consumes less
power.
Pack food airtight.
Do not cover or block the ventilation openings. The appliance consumes less power if the warm air can escape.
Vacuum the ventilation openings once a year.

Water filter
Change the water filter after 6 months at the latest.
If the ice tastes stale, discard the rest of the ice
cubes and the ones produced over the next
24 hours. If the ice still tastes stale, change the
water filter.
Note: If you use an external water filter system, you
can also operate the appliance without a water
filter.Replace the water filter with a bypass cartridge.
Switch off the water filter counter. There is no need
to change the bypass cartridge.
A new water filter or bypass cartridge can be
obtained from customer service or a specialist
dealer.
Exchange water filter or replace with bypass
cartridge
You can change the water filter, or replace it with a
bypass cartridge. The bypass cartridge can remain
in the appliance permanently: it does not need to be
changed.
Note: After installing a water filter or a bypass
cartridge, discard all ice cubes produced over the
first 24 hours.
1. Turn the cap of the water filter counter-clockwise.
2. Take the water filter out.
3. Remove the protective cap of the new water filter
or the new bypass cartridge.
4. Take off the cap of the used water filter and put it
on the new water filter or bypass cartridge.
5. Slide the new water filter or bypass cartridge to
the stop in the filter opening.
Note: The cap must be vertical here.
6. Turn the water filter or bypass cartridge clockwise
to the mark.
Note: If you do not turn the water filter or bypass
cartridge far enough, damage will be caused by
escaping water.
7. When installing a water filter: reset water filter
counter.
When installing a bypass cartridge: switch off
water filter counter.
8. Discard ice cubes produced over the first
24 hours.
9. Drain the water out of the used water filter.
Note: You can dispose of the used water filter with
your household garbage.
1Operating the appliance

WFreezer compartment
Fr eez e r compar t ment
The freezer compartment is suitable for:
storing frozen food
making ice cubes
freezing food
The temperature can be set from -11 °F (-
24 °C)... +7 °F (-14 °C).
The freezer compartment can be used to store
perishable foods long-term almost without any
noticeable reduction in quality, as the low
temperatures considerably slow down or stop
deterioration. Appearance, flavor and all valuable
ingredients are largely retained.
The time between putting fresh food in the freezer
compartment and it freezing solid depends on the
following factors:
temperature set
type of food
amount of food in the freezer compartment
quantity and type of storage
Fully utilizing the freezer volume
To place the maximum quantity of frozen food in the
freezer compartment:
Remove all fittings.
Store food directly on the shelves and on the floor
of the freezer compartment.
Purchasing frozen food
Ensure the packaging is not damaged.
Check there is a sell-by date.
The temperature in the supermarket freezer must
be 0 °F (-18 °C) or lower.
Do not interrupt the freezing chain. If possible,
transport frozen food in a cool bag and place in
the freezer compartment quickly.
When loading products
Freeze large quantities of food in the top
compartment.
This is where it will freeze especially quickly and
gently.
Distribute food in the compartments or frozen
food containers.
Do not bring food which is to be frozen into
contact with frozen food.
If required, restack frozen food in the frozen food
containers.
Important for unrestricted air circulation in the
appliance:
push in frozen food containers up to the limit
stop.

sugar or ascorbic acid solution.
Information on how to do this can be found in
relevant literature.

Unpeeled or hard-boiled eggs
Grapes
Whole apples, pears and peaches
Yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, creme fraiche
and mayonnaise
Packing frozen food
The correct type of packaging and material selection
are decisive factors in the retention of the product
quality and prevent the development of freezer burn.
1. Place food in packaging.
2. Remove air.
3. Pack food airtight to prevent it from losing flavor
or drying out.
4. Label packaging with contents and date of
freezing.
Suitable packaging:

Freezer containers
Suitable closures:
Rubber bands
Plastic clips
Cold-resistant adhesive tape
Unsuitable packaging:
Wrapping paper
Greaseproof paper
Cellophane
Garbage bags and used grocery bags
Shelf life of frozen food at 0 °F (-18 °C)
Thawing frozen food
The thawing method must be adjusted to the food
and application in order to retain the best possible
product quality.
Thawing methods:
In the refrigerator compartment (especially
suitable for animal-based foods such as fish,
meat, cheese)
At room temperature (bread)
In the microwave (food for immediate
consumption or immediate preparation)
In the oven/cooker (food for immediate
consumption or immediate preparation)
9 CAUTION
Do not refreeze partly or completely thawed
food.You can only refreeze food once it has
been cooked (boiled or fried).
The frozen food can no longer be stored for the
maximum duration.
