1.2 Range of appliance use

The appliance is suited only for cooling food. In the case of commercial food cooling, the pertinent statutory

regulations have to be observed. The appliance is not suited for storing and cooling pharmaceuticals, blood plasma, laboratory

General safety information

preparations or similar substances and products subject to the Medical Devices Directive 2007/47/EC. Any misuse of the appliance may result in damage to or spoilage of the stored goods. Furthermore, the appliance is unsuited for use in areas exposed to an explosion hazard.

The appliance is set to operate within specific ambient temperature limits according to its climate rating. The correct climate rating for your appliance is indicated on the type plate.

Note

Compliance with the ambient temperatures indicated is required, otherwise the cooling performance is reduced.

Climate rating

SN 10 °C to 32 °C

N 16 °C to 32 °C

ST 16 °C to 38 °C

T 16 °C to 43 °C

1.3 Conformity

The refrigerant circuit has been tested for leaks. The appliance complies with current safety regulations and EC directives 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC.

1.5 Saving energy

Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation

openings or grille. Always keep fan louvres clear.

Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a

stove, heater or similar object. The energy consumption depends on the installation condi-

tions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.2) . Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.

Store food logically.

Ensure that all food is well packed and covered for storage.

This will prevent frost from forming. First cool warm food to room temperature before storing it .

Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator.

Use the vacation function for longer vacation periods

(see 5.8.4) . Accumulated dust increases the energy consumption:

Once a year, dust the refrigerating unit

together with the metal grille of the heat

exchanger at the back of the appliance.

1.6 HomeDialog

Depending on model and options, the HomeDialog system can be used to network a number of Liebherr appliances (situated, for example, in the basement) with a main appliance (sited, for example, in the kitchen) and control them via the latter. You will find more information on the benefits, requirements and principle of operation on the internet at www. liebherr.com.

2 General safety information

Danger for the user:

This appliance is not designed for persons (including children)

with physical, sensory or mental impairment or persons not

having sufficient experience and knowledge, unless they are

instructed in the use of the appliance and are initially super-

vised by a person responsible for their safety. Keep children

under supervision to ensure they do not play with the appli-

ance.

In case of a fault, pull out the mains plug (not by pulling the

connecting cable) or switch off the fuse.

Have any repairs to or intervention in the appliance, and any

change of the mains power cable, carried out by the customer

service only or by other specialised personnel trained for the

purpose.

When disconnecting the appliance from the supply, always

take hold of the plug. Do not pull the cable.

Install and connect the appliance only as instructed.

Please keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them

on to any subsequent owners.

All repairs to and intervention in the IceMaker may be carried

out only by service personnel or by other skilled personnel

trained for the purpose.

The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by a faulty

fixed water connection.

Special-purpose lamps (incandescent lamps, LEDs, fluores-

cent tubes) in the appliance serve to illuminate the appliance

interior and are not suited for room illumination.

Fire hazard:

The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flam-

mable. Escaping refrigerant may ignite.

Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.

•

Do not allow naked flames or ignition sources to enter the

•

appliance. Do not use any electrical appliances in the interior (e.g.

•

steam cleaners, heaters, ice cream maker etc.). If refrigerant escapes: eliminate naked flames or sources

•

of ignition from the vicinity. Pull out the power plug. Ventilate the area well. Notify customer service.

Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propel-

lants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the appliance.

Respective spray cans can be identified by reference to the

contents printed on the can or by a flame symbol. Gases

possibly escaping may ignite due to electrical components.

Controls and displays

Do not place any burning candles, lamps or other items with

naked flames on or in the appliance. Only store high-percentage alcohol in tightly sealed, upright

containers. Alcohol possibly escaping may ignite due to electrical components.

Danger of tipping and falling:

Do not misuse the plinth, drawers, doors etc. as a step or for

support. This applies particularly to children.

Danger of food poisoning:

Do not consume food which has been stored too long.

Danger of frostbite, numbness and pain:

Avoid lasting skin contact with cold surfaces or refrigerated/

frozen food or take protective steps, e.g. wear gloves. Do not consume ice cream, water ice or ice cubes immediately and do not consume them too cold.

Risk of crushing

Do not reach into the soft stop mechanism. Fingers may be

trapped when the door is closed.

Please observe the specific information in the other sections:

DANGER identifies a situation involving direct

danger which, if not obviated, may result in death or severe bodily injury.

WARNING identifies a dangerous situation

which, if not obviated, may result in death or severe bodily injury.

CAUTION identifies a dangerous situation

which, if not obviated, may result in minor or medium bodily injury.
