1 Safety instructions and warnings
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance
and individual components during transport and is
made of recyclable materials.
- Corrugated board/board
- Moulded polystyrene (foamed, CFC-free
polystyrene)
- Polythene bags and sheets
- Polypropylene straps
W Keep packaging materials away from children -
polythene sheets and bags can suffocate!
Please return the packaging material to your nearest
W
official collection point so that the various materials
can be reused or recycled as far as possible.
Your old appliance:
This contains some reusable materials and should
not simply be disposed of with household or bulk
refuse.
W Disable discarded appliances immediately by
removing the plug and cutting through the connection cable.
Remove the spring-action or bolt catch from
the appliance or render it unusable so that
children cannot become trapped inside and
suffocate.
W Ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged
before the appliance that is no longer needed is
taken away for disposal. In this way the refrigerant or oil will not escape into the environment.
- Exact details of the refrigerant used can be found
on the type plate. The heat insulator is PU with
Pentane.
- Information on collection dates or collection
points can be obtained from the waste disposal
authorities or local council.
Technical safety
W To prevent injury or damage to the unit, the
appliance should only be transported wrapped
and set up by two people.
W The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly
but flammable.
W Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.
Splashes of refrigerant can harm your eyes or ignite.
W If refrigerant escapes, remove all naked flames or
sources of ignition in the vicinity of the leak,
disconnect the appliance from the mains and
ventilate the area well.
W In the event that the appliance is damaged,
contact the supplier immediately before connecting to the mains.
W To guarantee safe operation, ensure that the
appliance is set up and connected as described
in these operating instructions.
W Disconnect the appliance from the mains if any
fault occurs. Pull out the plug (not by pulling on
the mains cable) or switch off or remove the fuse.
W Any repairs and work on the appliance should
only be carried out by the customer service
department, as unauthorised work could prove
highly dangerous for the user. The same
applies to changing the mains power cable.
Safety during use
W
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 can identify such
sprays by the printed contents or a flame symbol.
W Only store high-percentage alcohol in tightly sea-
led, upright containers.
W Do not allow naked flames or ignition sources to
enter the appliance.
Do not use electrical appliances inside the appliance
W
(e.g. steam cleaners, heaters, ice makers, etc.).
W Do not stand on the plinth, drawers or doors or
use them to support anything else.
W Do not let children play with the appliance, e.g. do
not allow them to sit in the drawers or swing on
the door.
W Do not eat ice-cream, particularly 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.
W Do not consume food which has been stored for
too long, as it could cause food poisoning.
Setting up
W When setting up/fitting ensure that the refrigerant
circuit pipes are not damaged.
W
Screw the handle onto the door using the holes provided. Clip the cover strip or caps* into place. To
remove the cover strip later on, simply detach it by
inserting a screwdriver into the cut-outs at the back.
By fitting these parts yourself you will help to
save on packaging material.
W Once in position, use the 19 spanner provided to
adjust the feet so that the appliance is level and
does not wobble.
W Avoid positioning in direct sunlight or next to an
oven, radiator or similar, in damp locations or
near spraying water.
W Standard EN 378 specifies that the room in which
you install your appliance must have a volume of
3
per 8 g of R 600a refrigerant used in the
1 m
appliance, so as to avoid the forma-tion of
inflammable 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 on the inside of the appliance.
W The ventilation grilles should not be ob-
structed. Always ensure that there is good
ventilation and that the outward flowing air is
able to escape. Please note the appendix con-
cerning installation instructions.
W Do not place heat-emitting appliances, e.g.
microwave oven, toaster, etc., on top of the refrigerator or freezer.
W Remove the transport attachments on the
shelves and insert at the desired height.
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 inside the appliance on the left, fig. A.
W Connect the appliance with a properly
earthed fused plug and socket only.
W 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.
Do not
W
- connect to stand-alone inverters,
- operate with so-called energy-saving plugs - this
can damage the electronic system,
- connect to the supply with other equipment using
an extension cable - risk of overheating.
W When removing the mains cable from the back of
the appliance, remove the cable holder as well
so as to avoid vibration noise.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: green/yellow = earth,
blue = neutral, brown = live.
Warning! This appliance must be earthed.
Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363
If this machine or appliance is fitted with a non-rewireable plug, the following information applies: If the socket
outlets are not suitable for the plug supplied with this
product, it must be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted.
The plug cut from the flexible cord should be disposed of
and on no account be inserted into a 13 A socket
elsewhere in the house (electric shock hazard).
The fuse cover must be re-fitted when changing the
fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost the plug must not
be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The
colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the
coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour
that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as
applicable to the design of the plug fitted). The
correct rating of the re-placement fuses that are
ASTA approved to BS 1362 should be fitted. Replacement fuse covers may be purchased from your
local electrical suppliers, electricity showroom or
approved service agent.
