Environmental Information
Packaging
All transit packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be reused. Wood is un-treated. The plastics can be recycled and are identified as follows:
>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
For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be disposed of properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of its service life - for your new appliance as well.
1 Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable. Remove plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any snap or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing children lock themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place themselves into other life-endangering situations.
When disposing of your old appliance:
•The appliance may not be disposed of with domestic waste or bulky refuse.
•The refrigerant circuit, especially the heat exchanger at the back of the appliance, may not be damaged.
•Information concerning collection schedules or locations can be obtained from the local disposal authorities or town hall.

Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be installed in a well ventilated, dry room. Energy use 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 designed.
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 |
|
|
If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following minimum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the appliance:
–for electric cookers 3 cm;
–for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.
If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is required between the cooker and the refrigeration appliance.

Installation
The Refrigerator 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 reversing the door, the door seal fits tightly. A badly fitting door seal may lead to heavy frosting and a higher power consumption (see also "Something not working“).
Appliance Alignment
01. The appliance must be level, please compensate for unevenness in the floor by turning the two adjustable feet at the front.
Electrical Connection
A properly installed socket outlet with earthing contact is required for electrical connection. Electrical fuse protection must be of at least 10 ampere.
If the outlet socket is no longer accessible after installation of the appliance, appropriate measures must be taken during electrical installation to assure that the appliance can be disconnected from the mains (e.g. fuse, circuit breaker, non-operate current safety-switch or the like, with a contact opening of at least 3 mm).
01. Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain if supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the mains
at the installation location.
e.g.: AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or 220 ... 240 V~50 Hz
(i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz) The rating plate is inside the appliance at the left.
