m Safety and warning information
Repairs may be performed by the
manufacturer, customer service or a similarly
qualified person only.
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 tubes of the refrigeration circuit convey a
small quantity of an environmentally friendly
but flammable refrigerant (R600a). It does
not damage the ozone layer and does not
increase the greenhouse effect. If refrigerant
escapes, it may injure your eyes or ignite.
If damage has occurred
▯ Keep naked flames and/or ignition
sources away from the appliance,
▯ thoroughly ventilate the room for several
minutes,
▯ 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.
Only original parts supplied by the
manufacturer may be used. The manufacturer
guarantees that only these parts satisfy the
safety requirements.
Do not use multiple sockets, extension leads
or adapters.
Important information when using
the appliance
▯ Never use electrical appliances inside
the appliance (e.g. heater, electric ice
maker, etc.). Explosion hazard!
▯ Never defrost or clean the appliance with
a steam cleaner! The steam may
penetrate electrical parts and cause
a short-circuit. Risk of electric shock!
▯ Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
implements to remove frost or layers of
ice. You could damage the refrigerant
tubes. Leaking refrigerant may cause eye
injuries or ignite.
▯ Do not store products which contain
flammable propellants (e.g. spray cans)
or explosive substances in the appliance.
Explosion hazard!
▯ Do not stand on or lean heavily against
base of appliance, drawers or doors, etc
▯ For defrosting and cleaning, pull the
mains plug out or switch off the fuse. Do
not pull out the mains plug by tugging
on the power cord.
▯ Store high-percentage alcohol tightly
closed and standing up.
▯ Keep plastic parts and the door seal free
of oil and grease. Otherwise, parts and
door seal will become porous.
▯ Never cover or block the ventilation
openings of the appliance!
3
▯ Avoiding placing children and
vulnerable people at risk:
At risk are children, people who have
limited physical, mental or sensory
abilities, as well as people who have
inadequate knowledge concerning safe
operation of the appliance.
Ensure that children and vulnerable
people have understood the hazards.
A person responsible for safety must
supervise or instruct children and
vulnerable people who are using the
appliance.
Only children from 8 years and above may
use the appliance.
Supervise children who are cleaning and
maintaining the appliance.
Never allow children to play with the
appliance.

Installing the appliance
Have a technician install and connect the appliance
according to the enclosed installation instructions.
Transporting
The appliance is heavy. Secure in position during
transportation and installation.
Due to the weight/dimensions of the appliance and to
minimise the risk of injury and damage to the
appliance at least two persons are necessary to set-up
the appliance safely.
Refrigerators contain refrigerant and gases
in the insulation. Refrigerant and gases must be
disposed of professionally. Ensure that tubing
of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged prior
to proper disposal.
Installation location
A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as an
installation location. The installation location should
not be exposed to direct sunlight and not placed 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 from the heat source:
▯ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
▯ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
The floor of the installation location must not give
way; if required, reinforce floor.

Ambient temperature and ventilation
Connecting the appliance
Ambient temperature
The climate class can be found on the rating plate.
The climate class indicates within which ambient
temperatures the appliance can be operated.
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
Conduction of the heated air must not be obstructed.
Otherwise, the refrigeration unit must work harder.
This increases power consumption. Therefore: Never
cover or block the ventilation opening!
Have a technician install and connect the appliance
according to the enclosed installation instructions.
Do not remove the transportation protection devices
from the shelves and storage compartments until
the appliance has been installed.
In addition to the statutory national regulations,
observe the connection conditions of the local power
supply companies.
After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 hour until
the appliance starts up. 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.
m Warning
Risk of electric shock!
If the length of the mains cable is inadequate, never
use multiple sockets or extension leads. Instead,
please contact Customer Service for alternatives.
The appliance complies with 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 protected by
a (10–16 A) fuse.
For appliances operated in non-European countries,
check whether the indicated voltage and current type
match the values of your electricity supply. This
information can be found on the rating plate (see
chapter entitled Customer Service).
m Warning
Never connect the appliance to electronic energy
saver plugs.
Our appliances can be used with mains and sinecontrolled inverters. Mains-controlled inverters
are used for photovoltaic systems which
are connected directly to the national grid. Sinecontrolled inverters must be used for isolated
applications (e.g. on ships or in mountain lodges)
which are not connected directly to the national grid.
