During the stability period by the first
starting the temperature displayed can
not correspond to the setting tempe­rature. During this time it is possible
that the temperature displayed is
different than the setting temperature.

Attention!

Difference between the temperature
displayed and temperature setting is
normal. Especially when:

- a new setting has recently been
selected

- the door has been left open for a
long time

- warm food has been placed in the
compartment.

Difference until 5°C inside the
compartment are quite normal.
During normal functioning the indicator
shows the warmest temperature inside
the compartment.

Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, before putting the products

in the compartment let the appliance
run at least 12 hours. To obtain the
best performance from this appliance,
you should: if large quantities of food
aretobestored,removealldrawers
and baskets from appliance and place
food on cooling shelves.
Pay careful attention not to exceed the
load limit stated on the side of the
upper section

In the event of accidental defrosting,
for example due to a power failure, if
the power has been off for longer that
the value shown in the technical
characteristics chart under "rising
time", the defrosted food must be
consumed quickly or cooked
immediately and then refrozen (after
cooling).

(where applicable).

Important

Excessive temperature alarm

Connecting the water hose.

The water coupling is connected to a
water tap with an external 3/4 in ch
thread.
This work is to be carried out by a
skilled plumbing installation technician.
Theapplianceistobeconnectedwith
a shut-off cock. There are different
type-approved taps and tap
assemblies on the market.
The water hose must not be cracked,
squeezed or be in tight bends.

If you require a longer water h ose than
that supplied, then a VDE-appro ved
150 38 85-02/0 supply hose should be
used.
Before the appliance is taken into use
in its final location, ensure that the
water connection has been correctly
carried out, that there is no leakage at
the connection to the appliance water
valve or to the water tap, and that the
four spacers are properly in position,
see the illustration.

We recommend that the appliance is
placed on a "run-off" mat intended for
refrigerators and freezers, which
makes it easier to detect possible
leakage.

When the water system is started for
the first time.

The following should be carried out
when the appliance is correctly
connected to the water supply in the
building:
Open the tap on the water connection
and start up the appliance. The ice

Installing the cabinet
When two appliances are placed

beside each other, the spacers
enclosed in the plastic wrapping
should be glued between the
appliances. As shown in the
illustration.

Make sure that the power plug is not
squashed or damaged by the back of
the product.

· A damaged power plug may
overheat and cause a fire.
Do not place heavy articles or the
product itself on the power cord.

· there is a risk of a short circuit and
fire.
If the power plug socket is loose, do not
insert the power plug.

· there is a risk of electric shock or fire.

· the cabinet is not placed close to a
source of heat, e.g. a cooker or
dishwasher.

· the cabinet is level. The cabinet
should not lean against any wall. If
necessary adjust the feet using the
adjustment spanner supplied.

· there is good air circulation around
the cabinet and that the air channels
below and behind the cabinet are not
blocked. The ventilation space above
the cabinet must be at least 4 cm.

The ventilation space can either be
a) directly above the cabinet, or
b) behind and above the top cupboard.
In this case, the space behind the
cupboard must be at least 50 mm deep.
