>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the interior.
>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are pure hydrocarbon compounds and can be recycled.
The carton parts are made from recycled paper. Please dispose of the packaging with due care for the environment.
Old Appliances
When disposing of your old appliance:
Make the appliance unusable by cutting off the cable and remove any door catches to ensure small children cannot be trapped inside.
Help to keep your country tidy - use an authorised disposal site.

Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be installed in a well ventilated, dry room. Energy use and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by the ambient temperature.
The appliance should therefore
–not be exposed to direct sunlight;
–not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
–only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is desi-
gned.
The climate classification can be found on the rating plate, which is located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification:
Climate classification |
for an ambient temperature of |
SN |
+10 to +32 °C |
N |
+16 to +32 °C |
ST |
+18 to +38 °C |
T |
+18 to +43 °C |

Installation
The refrigerator/freezer needs ventilation
Air is fed under the door through the vent slots in the base and is exhausted upwards along the back wall. To ensure proper air circulation never cover or alter the vent openings.
Important! If the appliance is installed under a hanging cabinet, a clearance of at least 10 cm between the top of the appliance and the cabinet above it must be maintained.
Please check whether, after installing your appliance and especially after rehingeing the door, the door seal seals right round. An untight door seal may lead to heavy frosting and a higher power consumption (see also "Something not working“).
Appliance Alignment
0The appliance level please compensate for unevenness in the floor by turning the two adjustable feet at the front.
