Use this appliance for domestic purposes only in compliance with the user instructions.

If you have received a faulty appliance, contact your supplier immediately.

Repairs and modifications should only be carried out by a service engineer.

Disconnect from the mains when cleaning; pull out the plug or deactivate the fuse. Never remove the plug from the socket with wet hands or by pulling the cable. Always take hold of the plug itself and pull it straight out of the socket.

This appliance is CFC- and FC-free and contains small quantities of Isobutane (R600a), an environmentally friendly coolant.

In the interests of safety, faulty connection cables for this appliance must be replaced by the manufacturer, his customer service department or similarly qualified personnel.

Warning: Do not operate any electrical appliances inside the cooler.

Noises which are totally normal

The refrigerator is cooled by a compressor (cooling aggregate). The compressor pumps coolant through the cooling system, and this produces noise. Even when the compressor cuts out, noises caused by temperature and pressure variations are unavoidable.

This cooler is fitted with a quiet compressor and low-noise cooling circuit in accordance with the latest state of technology.

However, certain noises are unavoidable and their intensity depends on the size of the cooler. Operating noises are most audible immediately after the compressor cuts in. They become quieter as the operating period continues.

Noises which are not normal

Most unusual noises are caused by improper installation. The cooler must be installed or built-in so that it is level and stable. Under no circumstances should pipes be in contact with a wall, other furniture or one another.

Where coolers are built in to open-plan kitchens or partition walls, normal operating noises will be more audible. However, this is due to the surrounding architecture and not to any fault with the cooler.

Droning Cooling aggregate Normal operating noise of the cooling aggregate. The level is dependent

on the size of cooler

Humming Fan Normal operating noise of the fan

Gurgling Cooling circuit Normal operating noise as coolant flows through the circuit Babbling Murmuring
