Otherwise the surface coating will be affected. u Wipe the coated door surfaces using a soft, clean cloth only. In case of stubborn dirt, use a little water or a neutral cleaning agent. A microfibre cloth can be optionally used. u If the stainless steel side walls are dirty, clean them using a commercially available stainless steel cleaning agent. Then evenly apply the accompanying stainless steel care product, making strokes in the direction of the grain. u Wipe side walls with a paint finish using a soft, clean cloth only. In case of stubborn dirt, use a little water or a neutral cleaning agent. A microfibre cloth can be optionally used. Do not apply stainless steel cleaning agent to glass or plastic surfaces to prevent them from being scratched. Darker areas at the beginning and quite an intensive colour of the stainless steel surface are normal.* u To clean the drain opening: remove any deposits with a fine instrument, e.g. a cotton bud. Items of equipment: u Clean items of equipment by hand with lukewarm water and a little washing-up liquid. u For cleaning, remove the support rails for the half-sized glass shelves. u To dismantle the shelves: remove the trims and side parts. u Take apart the door rack as illustrated. After cleaning: u Wipe dry the appliance and items of equipment. u Connect the appliance and switch it on again. u Switch on SuperFrost (see 5.5.4) .

Fig. 15 6.4 Customer service First check whether you can correct the fault yourself by refer- ence to the list (see Malfunction). If this is not the case, please contact the customer service whose address is given in the enclosed customer service list. WARNING Risk of injury if repair work is not carried out professionally! u Have any repairs to and intervention in the appliance and mains power cable, which are not expressly mentioned in the (see Maintenance) carried out by the customer service only. u Read the appliance designation Fig. 16 (1), service No. Fig. 16 (2) and serial No. Fig. 16 (3) off the type plate located inside the appliance on the left-hand side. Fig. 16 u Notify the customer service, specifying the fault, appliance designation Fig. 16 (1), service No. Fig. 16 (2) and serial No. Fig. 16 (3). w This will help us to provide you with a faster and more accurate service. u Keep the appliance closed until the customer service arrives. w The food will stay cool longer. u Pull out the mains plug (not by pulling the connecting cable) or switch off the fuse. 7 Malfunction Your appliance is designed and manufactured for a long life span and reliable operation. If a malfunction nonetheless occurs during operation, check whether it is due to a handling error. In this case you will have to be charged for the costs incurred, even during the warranty period. You may be able to rectify the following faults yourself: Appliance does not work. → The appliance is not switched on. u Switch on the appliance. → The power plug is not properly inserted in the wall socket. u Check power plug. → The fuse of the wall socket is not in order. u Check fuse. The compressor runs for a long time. → The compressor switches to a low speed when little cold is needed. Although the running time is increased as a result, energy is saved. u This is normal in energy-saving models. → SuperFrost is activated. u The compressor runs for longer in order to rapidly cool the food. This is normal. Excessive noise. → Speed-controlled* compressors may produce varying running noise due to different speed steps. u The sound is normal. A bubbling and gurgling noise. → This noise comes from the refrigerant flowing in the refriger- ation circuit. u The sound is normal. A quiet clicking noise. → The noise is produced whenever the refrigeration unit (motor) automatically switches on or off. u The sound is normal. A hum. It is briefly a little louder when the refrigeration unit (the motor) switches on. → The refrigeration increases automatically when the Super- Frost, function is activated, fresh food has just been placed in the appliance or the door has been left open for a while. u The sound is normal. → The ambient temperature is too high. u Solution: (see 1.1) A low hum. → The sound is produced by air flow noise of the fan. u The sound is normal. Vibratory noise. → The appliance is not standing firmly on the floor. As a result, adjoining units or objects are set into vibration by the running refrigeration unit. u Move the appliance away a little and align it using the adjust- able feet. u Move bottles and containers apart. The SuperFrost button flashes together with the tempera- ture display. → There is a fault. u Contact the customer service. (see Maintenance). The outside surfaces of the appliance are warm. → The heat of the refrigeration circuit is used to prevent conden- sate from forming. u This is normal. The temperature is not cold enough. → The door of the appliance is not properly closed. u Close the door of the appliance. → Insufficient ventilation. u Clear ventilation grilles. → The ambient temperature is too high. u Solution: (see 1.1) . → The appliance was opened too frequently or for too long. u Wait until the appliance reaches the required temperature itself. If not, contact the customer service. (see Mainte- nance). → Too much fresh food was placed inside without SuperFrost. u Solution: (see 5.5.4) → The appliance is too close to a heat source. u Solution: (see Putting into operation). Malfunction 12

→ The appliance is not switched on. u Switch on the appliance. → The door was open longer than 15 min. u The interior light automatically switches off if the door has been open for about 15 min. → If the interior light is not on but the temperature display is lit, the bulb is faulty. u Change the bulb. (see Maintenance). 8 Decommissioning 8.1 Switching off the appliance Note u To switch on the entire appliance it is necessary only to switch off the freezer compartment. In so doing, the refrigerator compartment is automatically switched off as well. 8.1.1 Switching off the freezer compartment u Press ON/OFF button, freezer compartment Fig. 3 (8) for at least 3 seconds. w The temperature displays are dark. The entire appliance is switched off. 8.1.2 Switching off the refrigerator compart- ment u Press ON/OFF button, refrigerator compartment Fig. 3 (1) for at least 3 seconds. w The interior light is off. w The temperature display of the refrigerator compartment is dark. Note u If only the refrigerator compartment is to be switched off, e.g during holidays, then always pay attention: the freezer compartment temperature display has to shine. 8.2 Taking the appliance out of service u Empty the appliance. u Pull out the power plug. u Clean the appliance (see 6.2) . u Leave the door open to prevent odour. 9 Disposing of the appliance The appliance contains some reusable materials and should be disposed of properly - not simply with unsorted household refuse. Appliances which are no longer needed must be disposed of in a professional and appropriate way, in accordance with the current local regulations and laws. When disposing of the appliance, ensure that the refrigeration circuit is not damaged to prevent uncontrolled escape of the refrigerant it contains (data on type plate) and oil. u Disable the appliance. u Pull out the plug. u Cut through the connecting cable.
