IMPORTANT

If your new appliance has been bought to replace an order model,
please make the old appliance unusable at once: pull the plug out
of the socket, cut the connecting lead off, and dispose of the plug
together with the remaining lead in an environmentally friendly
manner.

Any snap catch or lock on your old appliance should also be made
unusable before you put the appliance away or hand it over to be
disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.

In this way you can prevent children from locking themselves in
when playing and thus endangering their lives.
Please make sure that the pipelines of your fridge-freezer are not
damaged before collection for environment-friendly disposal.

General instructions

You have just purchased a home refrigerator which has been produced
according to the standards applicable to these appliances.
During manufacture, the necessary measures have been taken as required by
the Appliance Safety Act (GSG), the Accident Prevention Regulations for
Refrigerating Installations (VBG 20), and the Specifications of the Institute
of German Electrical Engineers (VDE).
The refrigeration circuit has been checked for leakage.

This appliance complies with the following EC Directives:

- 73/23/EEC of 19.02.1973 - Low-Voltage Directive

- 89/336/EEC of 03.05.1989 (including Amendment Directive
92/31/EEC) - EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibily) Directive.

Before starting up, we recommend you to read the following Operating
Instructions, since only by doing so can you benefit from all the advantages
offered by your refrigerator. These Operating Instruction are intended for
several technically comparable models with different equipment. Please only
follow the instructions corresponding to your appliance version.

Choice of location

• If possible, your refrigerator should be installed in a dry, well-venti­lated room. Its installation in a damp room or the occurrence of
weather-dependent high air humidity may temporarily lead to pre­cipitation of moisture (dew formation) on the outside of the freezer
compartment.

• Ambient temperature has an effect on the power consumption of
the unit. The appliance should therefore:

- not stand in the direct sunshine, or close to a radiator or cooker

- stand in a position where the ambient temperature corresponds
with the climate category for which the appliance is designed.

• You will find data on this on the rating plate, which is in the interi­or of the appliance on the left hand side. It will consist of one of
the following:

Climate category Ambient temperature

from ... to ...

SN +10 to +32°C
N +16 to +32°C
ST +18 to +38°C
T +18 to +43°C

• If installation beside a heat source is unavoidable, the following
minimum distances at the sides are to be complied with: To electric
cookers 3 cm, to oil or coal fired cookers 30 cm.

Install a heat protection panel between the two appliances.
The appliance should be installed on a firm, horizontal surface.

Correct any floor irregularities by twisting the adjustable feet in or
out.

Commercial use

Should you use your home refrigerator commercially or for purpos­es other than refrigeration of food and drinks, you must observe
the legal requirements applicable to your area.

Hints on proper use

• Store your food, depending on type and sensitivity, in the appropri
ate temperature zones. This will enable you to achieve an optimum
storage duration (see illustration under “Correct storage”).

• Ensure good packaging and coverage of food intended for storage
in the refrigerator to retain flavour, colour, moisture, and freshness.

• Clean the refrigerator compartment regularly to ensure hygienic
storage of food and to prevent undesirable odours from forming.

• Never place hot food in your refrigerator for cooling.
