Operation and control elements
You are advised to clean the appliance before switching it on
for the first time (see "Cleaning").
Switch on the appliance approx. 2 hours before loading it with
frozen food for the first time. Do not load with frozen food until
the temperature shows at least -18°C.
The BioFresh
and freezer
compartments can
be operated separately.
Switching the appliance on and off
W To switch on: Press the on/off buttons (9 on left for Bio-
Fresh compartment and 3 on right for freezer compart-
ment) so that the temperature displays light up or flash.
- BioFresh compartment: The interior light will light up
when the door is open.
- Freezer compartment: When the appliance is switched on
for the first time and while it is still warm, the freezer display
will contain dashes until the temperature falls below 0°C.
W To switch off: Press the on/off buttons (9 on left for Bio-
Fresh compartment and 3 on right for freezer compart-
ment) for approx. one second so that the temperature dis-
plays go out.
Setting the temperature
The appliance is pre-set for normal operation. We recom-
mend temperatures of +1°C in the BioFresh compartment and
-18°C in the freezer compartment.
W To reduce the temperature: Press the Down button; 8
on left for BioFresh compartment and 2 on right for freezer
compartment.
W To increase the temperature: Press the Up button.
W The temperature in the BioFresh compartment is con-
trolled automatically, between 0°C and 3°C.
If you require a higher or lower temperature, e.g. for storing
fish, you can alter the temperature setting in the BioFresh
compartment:
- The setting range is displayed as between "b 1" and "b 9".
- The default setting on delivery is "b 5".
- The temperature can be changed by ± 5 increments, dis-
played in the temperature display.
Note: By decreasing the temperature, "b4" to "b1", minus
temperatures can be reached and the food will freeze
slightly.
W For the freezer compartment, the setting range is dis-
played as between -14°C and -28°C.
Whether you can obtain the lowest freezer temperature de-
pends on where the appliance is positioned (if it is located
in an area with a high ambient temperature it will not reach
the lowest temperature).
- While you are entering the temperature, the set tempera-
ture will flash on the display.
- When you press the temperature setting buttons for the first
time, the most recent setting is displayed.
- You can change the settings in increments by briefly
pressing the buttons again. If the buttons are held down
the temperature setting will change faster.
- Approximately 5 seconds after the button has been re-
leased, the display will automatically show the actual
freezing or BioFresh temperature (known as the "actual
setting").
- The altered temperature adjusts slowly to the new value.
Temperature display
In normal operation, the following settings will be displayed:
- the average BioFresh temperature in display 7 and
- the warmest frozen food temperature in display 1.
The display will flash:
- if you change the temperature or
- if the temperature rises by several degrees, indicating cold
loss, e.g. if you place fresh, "warm" food in the freez-er or
if you remove or re-pack frozen food the temperature may
rise for a short time due to warm air flowing into the freezer.
Once you have finished loading or re-packing, the electron-
ics will automatically re-set the temperature to the most
recent setting. Short-term rises in temperature will not
affect the frozen food.
W If "F 0" to "F 5" appears in the display, the appliance has a
fault. Consult the customer service department indicating
the fault number displayed as this will tell the technician
what kind of irregularity has occurred.
Audible warning signal
The audible warning signal helps to protect frozen food and
to save energy.
W The audible warning device is switched off by press-
ing the audible warning on/off button 5.
- It switches off automatically as soon as the temperature is
low enough or
- the door is closed.
Audible door alarm (for BioFresh and freezer compart-
ments)
- This sounds when the door has been left open for longer
than about 180 seconds.
The sound switch-off function is active as long as the door
is left open. The alarm automatically switches back to
standby when the door is shut.
Audible/visual temperature alarm (for the freezer com-
partment)
- It always sounds if the freezer temperature is not low
enough (dependent on the temperature setting).
- The temperature display flashes at the same time.
This can be caused by:
- warm, fresh food being placed in the freezer,
- too much warm air from the outside entering when re-
arranging or removing frozen food.
The temperature display will continue to flash until the cause
of the alarm has been rectified. It will then stop flashing
and light up continually. The audible warning signal is now
automatically reset.
