If the charcoal filter indicator has been activated, you will be reminded to replace the filters after approx. 6 months (see “Cleaning and care – Replacing the charcoal filters”).
Using the refrigerator efficiently Different storage zones Coldest area Due to the natural air circulation there are different temperature zones in the refrigerator. The coldest area in the refrigerator section is directly above the fruit and vegetable drawer and at the back of the appliance. Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the appliance. Make use of the different zones when placing food in the appliance.
Using the refrigerator efficiently Food which is not suitable for storage in the refrigerator Not all food is suitable for refrigeration at temperatures below 5 °C because it is sensitive to cold. Depending on the type of food, the appearance, consistency, flavour and/or vitamin content may be altered if stored at too cold a temperature.
Adjusting the interior fittings (refrigerator section) Adjusting the door shelves/ bottle shelf Adjusting or removing the bottle holder Only move door/bottle shelves when they are empty. Push the door/bottle shelf upwards, then remove it by pulling it forwards. Replace the shelf at the required height. Ensure that it is securely pushed back into position. Moving the adjustable shelves Stoppers prevent the shelves from being dislodged by mistake.
Adjusting the interior fittings (refrigerator section) Adjusting the bottle rack The bottle rack is available as an optional accessory (see “Guide to the appliance - Optional accessories”). Moving the charcoal filters Charcoal filters and a KKF-FF (Active AirClean) holder are available as optional accessories (see “Guide to the appliance - Optional accessories”). When you are storing very strong smelling food (e.g.
Freezing and storing food Freezing fresh food Fresh food should be frozen as quickly as possible so that the nutritional value of the food, its vitamin content, appearance and flavour are maintained. Food which takes a long time to freeze will lose more water from its cells, which then shrink. During the defrosting process, only some of this water is reabsorbed by the cells. In practice this means that the food loses more moisture.
Freezing and storing food Home freezing Only freeze food which is fresh and in good condition. Tips on home freezing – The following types of food are suitable for freezing: Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, vegetables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy products, pastry, leftovers, egg yolks, egg whites and a range of precooked meals. – The following types of food are not suitable for freezing: Grapes, lettuce, radishes, sour cream, mayonnaise, eggs in their shells, onions, whole raw apples and pears.
Freezing and storing food Before placing food in the appliance When freezing more than 2 kg of fresh food, switch on the SuperFreeze function for some time before placing the food in the freezer (see “Using SuperFreeze, SuperCool and DynaCool - SuperFreeze function”). This helps food which is already stored in the freezer to stay frozen. Placing food in the freezer Risk of damage due to heavy loads. Loading food which is too heavy can cause damage to the freezer drawers/glass plates.
Freezing and storing food Storage time for frozen food The storage life of food varies greatly, even when a constant temperature of -18 °C is maintained. Even in frozen products, degradation processes take place, only at a much slower rate. For example, fat can become rancid from contact with oxygen in the air. Lean meat can therefore be stored approximately twice as long as fatty meat. The storage times quoted are guide values for the storage life of different food groups in the freezer.
Freezing and storing food Cooling drinks quickly To cool drinks quickly in the refrigerator section, switch on the SuperCool function. Using accessories Making ice cubes If you want to cool a large amount of drinks, or if you want to cool drinks in the freezer section, select Party mode in Settings mode . When cooling drinks quickly in the freezer, make sure bottles are not left in for more than one hour. Otherwise they could burst, causing injury or damage.
Defrosting Refrigerator section Freezer section The refrigerator section defrosts automatically. The appliance is equipped with a “NoFrost” system. The freezer defrosts automatically. Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the refrigerator section while the compressor is running. You do not need to remove this, as it will defrost and evaporate automatically with the warmth generated by the appliance.
Cleaning and care Do not let water get into the electronic unit or the lighting. Risk of damage due to moisture ingress. The steam from a steam cleaning appliance can damage plastic parts and electrical components. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance. Cleaning water must not get into the drain hole. The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed. It contains information which is required in the event of a fault.
Cleaning and care Preparing the appliance for cleaning Dismantling an adjustable shelf Switch the appliance off. Before cleaning the shelf remove the plastic strip and protective strip at the back of the shelf. Proceed as follows: appears in the display and cooling is switched off. If this is not the case, the safety lock is on (see “Further settings Switching off the safety lock”). Place the shelf on a worktop covered with a soft material (e.g. a tea towel).
Cleaning and care Cleaning the interior and accessories The appliance should be cleaned regularly, or at least once a month. Clean up any spills, stains or food immediately.

After cleaning, wipe with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. Remove the plastic strips before cleaning the adjustable shelves and door shelves in a dishwasher.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the front of the appliance and the side panels If soiling is left on for any length of time, it may become impossible to remove. Surfaces may suffer discolouration or damage. Therefore it is best to remove soiling from the appliance doors and side panels immediately. All surfaces are susceptible to scratching. Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the surfaces. See the information on “Cleaning agents” at the beginning of this section.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the door seals If a door seal is damaged or has come out of the groove, the door will not close properly and cooling performance will be reduced. Condensate will build up in the interior and this can cause a build-up of ice. Do not damage the door seals and ensure that they do not come out of their groove. Risk of damage due to incorrect cleaning. If you treat the door seals with oils or grease, they can become porous. Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals.
Cleaning and care Replacing the charcoal filters Charcoal filters and a KKF-FF (Active AirClean) holder are available as optional accessories (see “Guide to the appliance - Optional accessories”).
