Additional Details and Usage

Storage and layout

The drawers in the RVC and RVF models are positioned at the same height so that, with side-by-side installation, the glass shelves and door racks can be aligned on the same level. Shelves and door racks have flexible positioning via a hidden rail system, supporting tailored organisation of frozen goods.

Door operation and handling

Opening assist offers two options: a push-to-open function for integration into handleless furniture fronts and a pull-to-open function for use with a handle. A cushioned door closing system enhances ease of use, and the flat hinge design allows a door opening angle of 115°, which can be fixed at 90°.

Defrosting and cold air distribution

Dynamic cold air distribution supports constant conditions throughout the compartment. The appliance features automatic defrosting with defrost water evaporation and no-frost technology, helping to maintain performance without manual defrosting.

Ice maker use and filtration

The ice maker is hidden in one drawer to optimise usable space and is supplied via a fixed water connection. It can be switched off when not required. Ice cube production is approximately 2.4 kg per 24 h, with a removable ice storage container of approximately 2 kg capacity. A particle filter for the water inlet is integrated in the ventilation grille area, with saturation indicated in the touch display.

Planning and installation notes

A shut-off valve for the water connection must be planned next to the appliance and remain accessible. If the water pressure exceeds 0.8 MPa (8 bar), a pressure relief valve is required between the water tap and hose set. The door hinge is on the left and is reversible, with a maximum door panel weight of 55 kg. The appliance is designed with a flat hinge for integrated installation.

Digital services and rest mode

Selected digital services via Gaggenau Home Connect allow remote control and monitoring. The appliance includes a rest mode certified by Star-K; when this mode is active, it can only be opened using a handle.
