Cold-pack accumulator (Some models only) In the event of a power cut, the cold-pack accumulator will prolong the storage of frozen food by a few hours. For safety reasons, during transport, cold-pack accumulators are placed in the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment. To use them efficiently, place the frozen cold-pack accumulators on top of frozen foods in the top drawer (see also section “Before starting-up”). -
Page 15: Before Starting Up
Before starting up Like all new appliances, this appliance has a characteristic “new” smell. Clean the in- side of the appliance and all accessories before starting it up (see section “Cleaning and Maintenance”). Before starting up the appliance for the first time, remove the cold-pack accumula- tors - if supplied - from the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment (see also sec- tion “Description of the appliance”). -
