5.3 Door alarm*
For refrigerator and freezer compartment
If the door is open longer then 60 s, the audible alarm sounds. The audible alarm is automatically silenced when the door is closed.
5.3.1 Muting the door alarm*
The audible alarm can be muted when the door is open. The sound switch-off function is active as long as the door is left open.
u Press alarm button Fig. 2 (1). w The door alarm is silenced.
5.4 Temperature alarm
The audible alarm sounds if the freezer temperature is not cold enough.
The temperature display flashes at the same time. The cause of the temperature being too high may be:
-warm fresh food was placed inside
-too much warm ambient air flowed in when rearranging and removing food
-power failure for some time
-the appliance is faulty
The audible alarm is automatically silenced and the tempera- ture display stops flashing when the temperature is sufficiently cold again.
If the alarm status persists: (see Malfunction).
Note
Food may be spoilt if the temperature is not cold enough.
u Check the quality of the food. Do not consume spoiled food.
5.4.1 Muting the temperature alarm
The audible alarm can be muted. When the temperature is sufficiently cold again, the alarm function is active again.
u Press alarm button Fig. 2 (1). w The audible alarm is silenced.
5.5 Refrigerator compartment
The natural circulation of air in the refrigerator compartment results in zones differing in temperature. It is coldest directly above the vegetable drawers and at the rear wall. It is warmest at the top front of the compartment and in the door.
5.5.1 Food refrigeration
Note
The energy consumption increases and the cooling perform- ance decreases if the ventilation is inadequate.
u Always keep the air slits of the fan free.
u Store perishable food such as ready-to-serve dishes, meat products and sausages in the coldest zone. Place butter and preserves in the upper area and in the door (see Appli- ance at a glance).
u Use recyclable plastic, metal, aluminium and glass containers and cling film for wrapping.
u Use the front area of the refrigerator compartment floor only for briefly putting down cooled products, e.g. when rear- ranging and sorting. However do not leave cooled products there otherwise they may be pushed back or tipped over when the door is closed.
u Do not store food too close together to enable good air circulation.
u To safeguard bottles from tipping over: move the bottle holder.
5.5.2 Setting the temperature
The temperature can be set from 11 °C to 2 °C , the recom- mended temperature is 5 °C.
u For a higher temperature setting: press Up button, refriger- ator compartment Fig. 2 (10).
u For a lower temperature setting: press Down button, refrig- erator compartment Fig. 2 (9).
w The first time the button is pressed, the value set so far is indicated in the refrigerator compartment temperature display.
u To change the temperature in 1 °C steps: briefly press the button.
u To change the temperature continuously: hold down the button.
w The value is displayed flashing during the setting operation. w The actual temperature is displayed about 5 s after the last
press of a button. The temperature slowly adjusts to the new value.
5.5.3 SuperCool
With SuperCool you switch to the highest cooling performance to reach lower cooling temperatures. Use SuperCool, to rapidly cool large amounts of food.
When SuperCool is activated, the fan runs. The appliance operates with maximum refrigeration. The noise of the refriger- ation unit may be temporarily louder as a result.
The SuperCool function uses slightly more energy.
Cooling with SuperCool
uBriefly press SuperCool button Fig. 2 (12). w The SuperCool button Fig. 2 (12) lights up.
w The cooling temperature drops to the coldest value. Super- Cool is activated.
w SuperCool is automatically deactivated after 6 to12 hours The appliance continues to operate in the energy-saving, normal mode.
To prematurely deactivate SuperCool
uBriefly press SuperCool button Fig. 2 (12). w The SuperCool button Fig. 2 (12) goes out. w SuperCool is deactivated.
5.5.4 Fan
With the fan you can rapidly cool large quantities of fresh food or achieve a relatively even distribution of temperature across all the storage levels.
The forced-air cooling is to be recommended:
