Frequently Asked Questions (19)

What does it mean when the display shows 'E...' on my Bosch refrigerator?

The 'E...' display means the electronics have detected a fault. You should call customer service to have this resolved, as it cannot be rectified by the user. When contacting customer service, have the product number (E-Nr.) and production number (FD) from the rating plate ready. (Page 17)

What temperature should I set for the refrigerator compartment?

The recommended temperature for the refrigerator compartment is +4 °C. A temperature of +4 °C or lower ensures optimum freshness and safety of stored foods. The temperature can be set anywhere from +2 °C to +8 °C. (Pages 10, 12)

What is the Super function and when should I use it?

The Super function makes both the freezer and refrigerator compartments colder. It should be used to freeze food solid as quickly as possible, 4–6 hours before freezing food weighing 2 kg or more, or to use the maximum freezing capacity. After approximately 2.5 days, the appliance automatically switches back to normal operation. (Page 11)

How do I clean my Bosch fridge-freezer safely?

Switch off the appliance, unplug it, and remove all food before cleaning. Use a soft cloth, lukewarm water, and a little pH-neutral washing-up liquid — do not use abrasive, chloride, or acidic cleaning agents, solvents, or scouring sponges. Never clean shelves or containers in the dishwasher as they may become deformed, and ensure rinsing water does not run into the light or drainage hole. (Page 16)

Why is there a temperature alarm sounding on my freezer compartment?

The temperature alarm (intermittent signal) activates when the freezer compartment becomes too warm. It may also be triggered without risk to frozen food when the appliance is first switched on, when large quantities of fresh food are added, or when the freezer door has been left open too long. Press the alarm button to display the warmest temperature reached and switch off the warning signal. (Page 11)

How long after installation should I wait before connecting my refrigerator to power?

After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 hour before connecting it to the power supply. This waiting period is necessary to prevent damaging the compressor. The socket must provide 220–240 V, 50 Hz, with a fuse of 10–16 A. (Page 8)

Does the freezer compartment need to be manually defrosted?

No, manual defrosting is not required. The fully automatic NoFrost system ensures the freezer compartment remains free of ice at all times. The refrigerator compartment's rear panel also defrosts automatically, with condensation draining into the condensation channel and evaporating. (Pages 10, 15)

Foods not suitable for freezing include vegetables usually eaten raw (e.g. lettuce or radishes), unpeeled or hard-boiled eggs, grapes, whole apples, pears and peaches, and dairy products such as yoghurt, soured milk, sour cream, crème fraîche, and mayonnaise. Additionally, containers with carbonated drinks must never be stored in the freezer compartment as they may burst. (Pages 3, 14)

What should I do if the appliance is not cooling but the display and lighting are still on?

If 2 audible signals sound at the end, the appliance is OK; if 5 audible signals sound and the super button flashes for 10 seconds, contact customer service. (Page 18)

What are the permitted room temperatures for operating this fridge-freezer?

The permitted room temperature depends on the climatic class shown on the rating plate. For class SN the range is +10 °C to +32 °C, class N is +16 °C to +32 °C, class ST is +16 °C to +38 °C, and class T is +16 °C to +43 °C. An SN class appliance will not be damaged at room temperatures down to +5 °C. (Page 6)

What should I do if refrigerant is leaking from the appliance?

If the refrigerant tubes are damaged and refrigerant escapes, immediately keep all naked flames and ignition sources away from the appliance and ventilate the room. Switch off the appliance, pull out the mains plug, and call the after-sales service. The refrigerant used (R600a) is flammable and can injure your eyes or ignite if it escapes. (Page 4)
