Safety and warning information
Before you switch ON the appliance
Please read the operating and installation instructions carefully. They contain important information on how to install, use and maintain the appliance. Keep all documentation for subsequent use or for the next owner.
Technical safety
•This appliance contains a small quantity of environmentally-friendly but flammable R600a refrigerant. Ensure that the tubing of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged during transportation and installation. Leaking refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite.

-Keep naked flames and/or ignition sources away from the appliance.
-Pull out the mains plug.
-Thoroughly ventilate the room for several minutes.
-Notify customer service
The more refrigerant an appliance contains, the larger the room must be. Leaking refrigerant can form a flammable gas-air mixture in rooms which are too small.
The room must be at least 1 m3 per 8 g of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in your appliance is indicated on the rating plate inside the appliance.
•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.

Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least. 1/2 hour before switching on the appliance. During transportation the oil in the compressor may have flowed into the refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for the first time, clean the interior (see Cleaning).
The socket should be freely accessible.
Connect the appliance to 220-240 V/ 50 Hz alternating current via a correctly
installed earthed socket. The socket must be fused with a 10-16 A fuse or higher.
If the appliance is to be operated in a non-European country, check on the rating plate whether the indicated voltage and current type correspond to the values of your mains supply. The rating plate is situated in the bottom left-hand side of the appliance. The power cord may be replaced by an electrician only.
Warning
Never connect the appliance
to electronic energy saver plugs or to power inverters which convert the direct current to 230 V alternating current (e.g. solar equipment, power supplies on ships).
