x For appliances supplied with wall spacers, the measurement increases by 35 mm (see 4.2) .
1.5Saving energy
-Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation openings or grille.
-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 conditions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.2) .
-Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
-The lower the temperature setting, the higher the power consumption.
-Store food logically. (see Appliance at a glance).
-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 .
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 Insulation plate
The insulation plate for part-load operation is available as an accessory from specialist dealers.
* Depending on model and options |
3 |
General safety information
If you do not store much food in the appliance, you can reduce the power consumption by as much as 50 % by using the insulation plate. Up to 5 drawers can be deenergised, depending on model. At least 3 drawers are necessary for cooling. More information accompanies the insulation plate.
2 General safety information
Danger for the user:
-This appliance can be used by children of 8 years old and over, and also by persons with restricted physical, sensory or mental capacity or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised or have been instructed on safe use of the appliance and understand the resulting risks. Children must not be allowed to play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children without supervision.
-When disconnecting the appliance from the supply, always take hold of the plug. Do not pull the cable.
-In the event of a fault pull out the mains plug or deactivate the fuse.
-Do not damage the mains power cable. Do not operate the appliance with a defective mains power cable.
-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.
-Only assemble, connect and dispose of the appliance according to the instructions.
-Please keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any subsequent owners.
Fire hazard:
-The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flammable. 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: remove any naked flames or sources of ignition from the leakage area. Ventilate the room well. Notify the after-sales service.
-Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propellants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the appliance. To identify these spray cans, look for the list of contents printed on the can, or a flame symbol. Gases possibly escaping may ignite due to electrical components.
-Keep burning candles, lamps and other items with naked flames away from the appliance so that they do not set the appliance on fire.
-Please be sure to store alcoholic drinks or other packaging containing alcohol in tightly closed containers. Any alcohol that leaks out may be ignited by 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.
Danger of injury and damage:
-Hot steam can lead to injury. Do not use electrical heating or steam cleaning equipment, open flames or defrosting sprays to defrost.
-Do not use sharp implements to remove the ice.
Please observe the specific information in the other sections:

4.1 Transporting the appliance
CAUTION
Risk of injury and danger of damage as a result of incorrect transport!
u Transport the appliance in a packed condition. u Transport the appliance upright.
u Do not transport the appliance without assistance.
4.2 Installing the appliance
WARNING
Fire hazard due to dampness!
If live parts or the mains lead become damp this may cause short circuits.
u The appliance is designed for use in enclosed areas. Do not operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is exposed to splash water or damp conditions.
WARNING
Risk of fire due to short circuit!
If the mains cable/connector of the appliance or of another appliance touch the rear of the appliance, the mains cable/ connector may be damaged by the appliance vibrations, leading to a short circuit.
u Stand the appliance so that it is not touched by connectors or main cables.
u Do not plug the appliance or any others into sockets located near the rear of the appliance.
WARNING
Fire hazard due to refrigerant!
The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flammable. Escaping refrigerant may ignite.
u Do not damage the piping of the refrigeration circuit.
WARNING
Fire hazard and danger of damage!
u Do not place appliances emitting heat e.g. microwaves, toasters etc. on the appliance!
WARNING
Blocked ventilation openings pose a risk of fire and damage!
u Always keep the ventilation openings clear. Always ensure that the appliance is properly ventilated!
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to condensate!
u Do not install the appliance directly alongside a further refrigerator/freezer.
q In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the supplier immediately before connecting to the mains.
q The floor at the site must be flat and level.
q Do not install the appliance in a location where it is exposed to direct radiation of the sun, next to a cooker, heater and similar.
q The ideal installation site is a dry, well ventilated room.
q Always stand the appliance backed directly to the wall using the enclosed wall spacers (see below).
q The appliance may be moved only when it is empty. q Do not install the appliance without assistance.
q The more R 600a refrigerant there is in the appliance, the larger the room in which the appliance is standing needs to be. In rooms that are too small, a flammable mix of gas and air may be created if there is a leak. According to the EN 378 standard, every 11 g of R 600a refrigerant requires at least 1 m3 space in the room for the appliance. The amount of refrigerant in your appliance is on the type plate inside the appliance.
u Detach the connecting cable from the rear of the appliance, removing the cable holder at the same time because otherwise there will be vibratory noise!
u Remove all transit supports.
The spacers supplied with some appliances must be used to achieve the stated energy consumption. These will extend the depth of the appliance by approx. 35 mm. The appliance is fully functional if the spacers are not used, but does have a slightly higher energy consumption.
u In the case of an appliance with enclosed wall spacers, mount the wall spacers on the back of the appliance at the top left and right.
u Dispose of packaging material (see 4.5) .
