Safety instructions and warnings
• To prevent injury or damage to the unit, the appliance should be
unpacked and set up by two people.
• In the event that the appliance is damaged on delivery, contact
the supplier immediately before connecting to the mains.
• To guarantee safe operation, ensure that the appliance is set up
and connected as described in these operating instructions.
• Disconnect the appliance from the mains if any fault occurs. Pull
out the plug, switch o or remove the fuse.
• When disconnecting the appliance, pull on the plug, not on the
cable.
• Any repairs and work on the appliance should only be carried
out by the customer service department, as unauthor ised work
could prove highly dangerous for the user. The same applies to
changing the mains power cable.
• Do not allow naked ames or ignition sources to enter the appliance. When transporting and cleaning the appliance ensure that
the refrigerant circuit is not damaged. In the event of damage,
make sure that there are no ignition sources nearby and keep the
room well ventilated.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge unless they have been given initial
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Avoid prolonged skin contact with cold surfaces or chilled/frozen
food. This could cause pain, numbness and frostbite. In the case
of prolonged skin contact, protective measures should be taken,
e.g. gloves should be worn.
• Do not eat ice cream, particulary ice lollies or ice cubes, immediately after taking them from the freezer compartment as there
is a risk of "burning" because of the very cold temperatures.
• Do not consume food which has been stored for too long, as it
could cause food poisoning.
• The appliance is designed for freezing and storing food and for
making ice and is intended for domestic use. If used for commercial
purposes, the relevant legal regulations applicable to the trade
concerned must be observed.
• If you have a lockable appliance, do not keep the key near the
appliance or within reach of children.
• Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propellants
such as butane, propane, pentane etc. in the appliance. Electrical
components might cause leaking gas to ignite. You may identify
such sprays by the printed contents or a ame symbol.
• Do not use electrical appliances inside the appliance.
• Do not connect the appliance to the supply with other equipment
using an extension cable. This can cause the extension socket to
overheat.
• 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.
• Special-purpose lamps (incandescent lamps, LEDs, fluorescent
tubes) in the appliance serve to illuminate the appliance interior
and are not suited for room illumination.

Setting up
• Do not place the appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
stove, heater or similar object.
• The oor on which the appliance stands must be horizontal and
level. Place the appliance far enough away from the wall so that
the lid can be opened and closed unhindered.
1
Do not cover the gap between the
lower edge of the freezer and the
oor, as the refrigeration unit has
to be supplied with air for cooling.
2
There must be a gap of at least
20 cm between the ventilation
grille and the wall. This gap must
be kept clear and the ventilation
openings uncovered.
3
Do not place any objects imme-
diately next to the outer housing
of the appliance. There must be
a gap of at least 20 mm all round
in order to ensure adequate heat
discharge.
• Standard EN 378 species that the room in which you install your
appliance must have a volume of 1 m
used in the appliance, so as to avoid the formation of inammable
gas/air mixtures in the room where the appliance is located in the
event of a leak in the refrigerant circuit. The quantity of refrigerant
used in your appliance is indicated on the type plate.

Climate rating
The appliance is set to operate within specic ambient temperature
limits according to its climate rating. These temperature limits should
not be exceeded. The correct climate rating for your appliance is
indicated on the type plate.
Climate rating Ambient temperatures
SN +10° to +32°C
N +16° to +32°C
ST +16° to +38°C
T +16° to +43°C

Connecting to the mains
Power supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point must comply
with the details on the type plate, which is located at the top of the
right-hand side wall of the freezer. The socket must be fused with a
10 A fuse or higher, it must be away from the rear of the appliance
and must be easily accessible.
The appliance must not be connected to DC/AC converters (e.g.
on solar systems).
Connect the appliance with a properly earthed fused plug
and socket only.
Saving energy
- Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation openings
or grille.
- Avoid positioning the appliance in direct sunlight or near cookers,
radiators and similar sources of heat.
- The energy consumption depends on the installation conditions,
e.g. the ambient temperature.
- Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
- Store food logically.
- Keep all food properly packed and covered so as to avoid its
frosting up on the outside.
- Always allow hot food to cool to room temperature before placing
in the appliance.
- If there is a thick layer of frost in the appliance: defrost the appliance.
Accumulated dust increases the energy consumption:
- Regularly clean the motor compartment ventilation openings to
keep them free from dust.
