Water filter

Note: After installing a new water filter, for hygiene reasons discard the ice cubes produced within the first 24 hours or dispense water for 5 minutes and discard.

The water filter supplied filters particles and the taste of chlorine out of the water, not bacteria or microbes:

■

Replace the water filter every 6 months or as frequently as needed.

You can also use the appliance without an internal water filter if you use an external water filter system.

To do this, replace the water filter with a bypass filter:

The bypass filter filters coarse particles from the

■

■ drinking water and can be cleaned as required.

The bypass filter can remain in the appliance permanently and does not need to be changed.

Switch off the change filter alarm every 6 months.

The refrigerator compartment is suitable for storing meat, sausages, fish, dairy products, eggs, ready meals and pastries.

The temperature can be set from +33 °F (1 °C) ...

43 °F (6 °C).

The refrigerator compartment can also be used to store highly perishable groceries in the short to medium term. A temperature of +39°F (+4°C) or lower ensures optimum freshness and hygiene of the stored groceries.

Note when storing food

■

■

■

■

Store fresh, undamaged food.

The quality and freshness will then be retained for longer.

In the case of convenience products and bottled goods, do not exceed the minimum sell-by date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer.

To retain aroma, color and freshness, pack or cover food well before placing it into the appliance.

This will prevent flavors being transferred between foods and the plastic parts from becoming discolored.

Leave warm food and drinks to cool down before placing them into the refrigerator compartment.

With cool-fresh storage, you can keep fresh foodstuff fresh for up to three times longer than in the refrigerator compartment – for even longer freshness and nutrient retention, and consistent flavor.

You can select pre-defined storage settings directly using the cool-fresh compartment controls or adjust the humidity and temperature from 29 °F

(–2 °C) ... 40 °F (4 °C) with the Home Connect app.

The storage climate in the cool-fresh bin offers ideal conditions for storing fish, meat and sausage, as well as fruit and vegetables.

Notes

■

Store food no higher than the bin rim to avoid

■

■ detaching the lid of the cool-fresh bin.

Never store fruit and vegetables in a cool-fresh bin with meat or fish.

Fruit sensitive to cold (e.g. pineapple, banana,

■ papaya and citrus fruit), and vegetables sensitive to cold (e.g. eggplants, cucumbers, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes and potatoes) should be stored outside the refrigerator at temperatures of approx. 46 °F (8 °C) ... 54 °F (12 °C) for optimal preservation of quality and flavor.

Condensation may form in the cool-fresh bin depending on the type and quantity of food stored.

Remove condensation with a dry cloth and adjust the humidity in the cool-fresh bin with the controls for cool-fresh compartment.

Ice cube production is low or misshapen.

After switching on or removing many ice cubes, there will be too few in the ice cube bin.

It takes around 48 hours for an empty ice cube bin to fill up.

Ice cube production stops even though the ice cube bin is not yet full. Do not store the ice scoop on the ice in the ice cube bin. Otherwise the sensor will not detect the actual fill level of the bin.

Freezer compartment is too warm.

Low water pressure.

Set the temperature lower.
