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
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 classificationfor 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.
818 42 32-00/011
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
reversing the door, the door seal seals
tightly. A badly fitting door seal may
lead to heavy frosting and a higher
power consumption (see also "What to
do if ...“).
Remove the two wall spacers from
the appliance accessories pack and,
in accordance with the illustrations,
fix them at the top of the rear of the
appliance so that the distance from
the wall required for the necessary
ventilation is ensured.
Appliance Alignment
The appliance must be level.
01. Please level out unevennesses in the
floor by screwing the two adjustable
front feet in or out using the 13 mm
spanner supplied. To do this remove
the plinth panel (see chapter
“Transporting the appliance“)
12818 42 32-00/0
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.
Warning: To avoid potential danger, if the mains connection lead of
this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by our customer service
representative or a person with similar qualifications.
Warning: Under no circumstances should the appliance be connected
to electronic “power saving plugs” or to a.c.-d.c. converters which convert direct current to 230 V alternating current (e.g., solar installations,
ship networks)
Reversing The Door
The door hinges can be changed if required to suit the location where
the appliance is installed.
Important! Only a qualified technician should change the side on
which the door is fixed. If this is necessary, please contact our Customer
Services or your dealer.
Warning! Unplug from the mains, before reversing the door.

Appliance Description
Freezer tray
A freezer tray is included in the
second drawer from the top in the
freezer compartment. It can be used
in both the top drawer and the
second drawer from the top.
Berries and vegetables, for example,
can be pre-frozen on the freezer tray.
Advantage: The berries are not squeezed and maintain their natural
form. The frozen berries can then be stored in compartments or drawers
packaged in individual portions.
Cold Accumulation Block
A cold accumulation block is enclosed with the appliance.
In the event of power failure or a malfunction of the appliance, the
3
cold accumulation block will increase the hold over period by several
hours. The cold accumulation block cools best if it is placed in the top
drawer at the front on the frozen food. If the freezer section is only
partially filled, pack the frozen food together as tightly as possible, so
that in the event of a power cut the cold remains in the frozen food for
longer.
When freezing food, place the cold accumulation block on the already
frozen food to prevent defrosting due to the warmth of the food that is
being frozen.
When defrosting the appliance place the cold accumulation block on
top of the frozen food to keep it cold.
The block may also be used in a cool bag to keep the temperature of
food down during transportation.
Refer to the section "Prior to Initial Start-Up" regarding the freezing of
the cold accumulation block.
