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.
The manufacturer is not liable if
you fail to comply with the
instructions and warnings.
Retain all documents for
subsequent use or for the next
owner.
Technical safety
The appliance contains a small
quantity of environmentally
friendly but flammable
refrigerant R600a. Ensure that
the tubing of the refrigerant
circuit is not damaged during
transportation and installation.
Leaking refrigerant may cause
eye injuries or ignite.
If damage has occurred
■ Keep naked flames and/or
ignition sources away from the
appliance,
■ thoroughly ventilate the room
for several minutes,
en
■ switch off the appliance and
pull out the mains plug,
■ inform customer service.
The more refrigerant an
appliance contains, the larger
the room must be in which the
appliance is situated. 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.
If the power cord of this
appliance is damaged, it must
be replaced by the
manufacturer, customer service
or a similarly qualified person.
Improper installations
and repairs may put the user
at considerable risk.
Repairs may be performed by
the manufacturer, customer
service or a similarly qualified
person only.
Only original parts supplied by
the manufacturer may be used.
The manufacturer guarantees
that only these parts satisfy the
safety requirements.
A extension cable may be
purchased from customer

Ambient temperature and ventilation
Ambient temperature
The appliance is designed for a specific
climate class. Depending on the climate
class, the appliance can be operated at
the following temperatures.
The climate class can be found on
the rating plate. Fig. .
Climate class Permitted ambient
temperature
SN +10 °C to 32 °C
N +16 °C to 32 °C
ST +16 °C to 38 °C
T +16 °C to 43 °C
Note
The appliance is fully functional within
the room temperature limits
of the indicated climatic class. If
an appliance of climatic class SN
is operated at colder room temperatures,
the appliance will not be damaged up to
a temperature of +5 °C.
Ventilation
Fig. #
The air on the rear panel and on the side
panels of the appliance heats up.
Conduction of the heated air must
not be obstructed. Otherwise,
the refrigerating unit must work harder.
This increases power consumption.
Therefore: Never cover or block
the ventilation openings!
Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least
1 hour until the appliance is switched on.
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 of
the appliance (see chapter “Cleaning
the appliance”).
Electrical connection
The socket must be near the appliance
and also freely accessible following
installation of the appliance.
The appliance complies with the
protection class I. Connect the appliance
to 220–240 V/50 Hz alternating current
via a correctly installed socket with
protective conductor. The socket must
be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.
For appliances operated in nonEuropean countries, check whether the
stated voltage and current type match
the values of your mains supply. This
information can be found on the rating
plate. Fig. .
m Warning
Never connect the appliance
to electronic energy saver plugs.
Our appliances can be used with mains
and sine-controlled inverters. Mainscontrolled inverters are used
for photovoltaic systems which
are connected directly to the national
grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be
used for isolated applications (e.g. on
ships or in mountain lodges) which are
not connected directly to the national
grid.

Switching the appliance on
Fig. "
Switch on the appliance with the On/Off
button !/11.
A warning signal sounds.
The temperature display 3 flashes
and the alarm display 5 is lit.
Press the “alarm” button 5. The warning
signal switches off and the temperature
display 3 stops flashing.
Display alarm goes out when
the appliance has reached the set
temperature.
The factory has recommended
the following temperatures:
■ Refrigerator compartment: +4 °C
■ Freezer compartment: –18 °C
Operating tips
■ When the appliance has been
switched on, it may take several hours
until the set temperatures have been
reached.
■ The fully automatic NoFrost system
ensures that the freezer compartment
remains free of ice. Defrosting is no
longer required.
■ The sides of the housing are
sometimes heated slightly. This
prevents condensation in the area of
the door seal.
■ If the freezer compartment door
cannot be immediately re-opened after
it has been closed, wait until the
resulting low pressure has equalised.
