GENERAL SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
When using this appliance, always
exercise basic safety precautions,
including the following:
1.
Use this appliance only for its
intended purpose as described in
this owner's manual.
2.
This appliance must be properly
installed in accordance with the
Installation Instructions before it
is used.
3.
Do not allow children to climb, stand
or hang on the shelves in the
appliance. They could seriously
injure themselves and damage the
appliance.
4.
After your appliance is in operation,
do not touch the cold surfaces in
the refrigerator compartment,
particularly when hands are damp
or wet. Skin may adhere to these
extremely cold surfaces.
5.
Do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
In refrigerators with an automatic ice
maker, avoid contact with the
moving parts of the ejector
mechanism, or with the heating
element located on the bottom
of the ice maker. Do not place
fingers or hands on the automatic
icemaking mechanism while
the refrigerator is plugged in.
7.
Do not refreeze frozen foods which
have thawed completely.
8.
For cleaning and exchanging the
bulb, pull the mains plug out or
switch off the fuse. Do not pull out
the mains plug by tugging the cable.

RISK OF CHILD
ENTRAPMENT
Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned refrigeration products are
still dangerous – even if they will sit for
“just a few days.” If you are getting rid of
your old appliance, please follow these
instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before you throw away your old
refrigeration product:
– Take off the doors.
– Leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb inside.
Keep children away from packaging
materials –
from folding cartons and cling wrap!
Danger of suffocation
ELECTRICAL
CONNECTION
The appliance comes with an UL listed,
3-wire power supply cord.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
The appliance requires a 3-wire
receptacle.
The receptacle must be installed by
a licensed electrician only.
Where a standard two-prong wall
receptacle is encountered, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of
the customer to have it replaced with
a properly grounded three-prong wall
receptacle.
Do not use an adapter plug.
GROUNDING
INSTRUCTION
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least
resistance for the electric current.
Improper connection of the equipment
grounding conductor may result in
electric shock. Have the appliance
checked by a qualified electrician or
service technician if you are in doubt as
to whether the appliance has been
properly grounded.
Some local regulations may require
a separate ground. In such cases,
the required accessory ground wire,
clamp and screw must be purchased
separately.
Never ground the appliance to plastic
plumbing lines, gas lines or water pipes.

openings for the appliance.
Do not store bottled or canned drinks
(especially carbonated drinks) in the
freezer compartment. Bottles and cans
may explode!
Never put frozen food straight from the
freezer compartment into your mouth.

TECHNICAL SAFETY
Only customer service may change the
power cord and carry out any other
repairs. Improper installations and
repairs may put the user at considerable
risk.
Only original parts supplied by the
manufacturer may be used.
The manufacturer guarantees that only
these parts satisfy the safety
requirements.
CFC DISPOSAL
Your old appliance may have a cooling
system that used CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons). CFC's are believed to harm
stratospheric ozone.
If you are throwing away an old
refrigeration product, make sure the
CFC refrigerant is removed for proper
disposal by a qualified servicer. If you
intentionally release this CFC refrigerant,
you can be subject to fines and
imprisonment under provisions of
environmental legislation.

Installation
mWARNINGm
Do not install the appliance:
–outdoors,
– in an environment with dripping
water,
– in rooms which are at risk of frost.
The appliance is very heavy – for
empty weight see following table:
Bottom freezer
approx. 430 Ibs/195 kg
Installation room
Install the appliance in a dry, well
ventilated room.
The installation location should neither
be exposed to direct sunlight nor near a
heat source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc.
If installation next to a heat source is
unavoidable, use a suitable insulating
plate or observe the following
minimum distances to a heat source:
1

cookers.
– from an oil or solid-fuel cooker

(+16 °C to 43 °C)
Ventilation
Never cover the ventilation openings in
the base panel. The cooling motor
otherwise has to increase ist output, and
this increases the electricity
consumption.
Installation cavity
It is important to observe the specified
dimensions of the installation cavity for a
trouble-free installation of the appliance
and for the subsequent general view of
the furniture front.
In particular ensure that the cavity is
square. Squareness can be checked by
suitable means, e.g. spirit level, diagonal
measurements, etc.
Furniture/Fixtures
The new appliance will be mounted
securely to adjacent and overhead
furniture/fixtures.
For this reason it is essential that all
attachable furniture/fixtures are
connected securely to the base or the
wall by suitable means.
Base
To ensure that the appliance is installed
securely and functions properly,
the base must be flat and level.
The base must be made of a hard, rigid
material.
The installation area must be the same
height as the rest of the room.
On account of the heavy weight of a fully
loaded appliance, a load-bearing base is
required.
The fully-loaded weight for this appliance
is approx. 1110 Ibs/500 kg.
If in doubt, contact an architect or
a building expert.
Installing and
connecting the
appliance
CAUTION
Have the appliance installed by an
electrician according to the enclosed
installation instructions.
After installing the appliance, wait at least
8 hours before switching on the
appliance. During transit the oil in the
refrigeration system may have moved.
Before switching on the appliance for the
first time, clean the inside of the
appliance.
Always connect the water before the
power.
Apart from statutory national regulations,
you should adhere to the connection
terms applied by local electricity and
water companies.
Do not remove the transportation
protection devices from the shelves and
storage compartments until the
appliance has been installed.
Connecting the
water
A cold water connection is required for
operation of the automatic ice maker.
The water pressure must be between
25 and 120 p.s.i. (1.72–8.25 bar).
The installation must comply with local
plumbing regulations and local and state
laws.
A separate shut-off valve must be
installed for the appliance water
connection.
The shut-off valve for the water
connection must not be behind the
appliance. It is recommended to place
the shut-off valve directly next to the
appliance (base unit) or in another easily
accessible location.

storing
mWARNINGm
Do not store explosive substances in
the appliance.
Store the frozen produce
Do not refreeze frozen food which is
thawing or which has thawed. Boil or
fry the food before refreezing it.
No longer store the frozen produce
for the max. storage period.
When purchasing deep-frozen food,
comply with the following:
– Check whether the packaging is
damaged.
– Check the sell-by date.
– The temperature of the super-market
freezer must be lower than 0 °F
(–18 °C). If not, the storage life of
the food is reduced.
– Purchase deep-frozen food last.
Wrap in newspaper or place in a cold
bag and take home.
– At home immediately place deep-
frozen food in the freezer
compartment. Use the deep-frozen
food before the sell-by date runs out.
Freezing food yourself
Freeze fresh, undamaged food only.
To prevent food from losing its flavour or
drying out, place in airtight containers.
Food should be frozen solid as quickly as
possible.
How to wrap food
correctly
Place the food in the wrapping.
Press out all the air.
Seal the wrapping.
Label the wrapping with the
contents and date.

– Install the appliance in a dry, ventila-
ted room; do not expose to direct
sunlight and do not place near a heat
source (e.g. radiator, cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
– Allow warm food and drinks to cool
down before placing them in the
appliance.
– Defrost frozen food by placing
it in the refrigerator. The low
temperature of the frozen food will
refrigerate the food in the refrigerator
compartment.
– Open the appliance door as briefly as
possible!
