The manufacturer works constantly on the further development of all the types and models. Therefore please understand that we have to reserve the right to make design, equipment and technical modifications.
To get to know all the benefits of your new appliance, please read the information contained in these instructions carefully.
The instructions apply to several models. Differences may occur. Text relating only to specific appliances is marked with an asterisk (*).
Instructions for action are marked with a , the results of action are marked with a .

1 General safety information

-
Only install, connect and dispose of the appli­ance according to the instructions. Take particular note of “Recess dimensions” (see 5) and “Ventilation of the kitchen unit” (see 7) .
-
The socket must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly disconnected from the supply in an emergency. It must be outside the area of the rear of the appliance.
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.
NOTICE identifies a dangerous situation
which, if not obviated, may result in damage to property.
Note identifies useful information and tips.

2 Transporting the appliance

CAUTION
Risk of injury and danger of damage as a result of incorrect transport!
Transport the appliance in a packed condition.
u
Transport the appliance upright.
u
Do not transport the appliance without assistance.
u

3 Installing the appliance

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.
Stand the appliance so that it is not touched by connectors
u
or main cables. Do not plug the appliance or any others into sockets located
u
near the rear of the appliance.
WARNING
Fire hazard due to dampness! If live parts or the mains lead become damp this may cause short circuits.
The appliance is designed for use in enclosed areas. Do not
u
operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is exposed to splash water or damp conditions. Only use the appliance when it is installed.
u
WARNING
Fire hazard due to refrigerant! The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flam­mable. Escaping refrigerant may ignite.
Do not damage the piping of the refrigeration circuit.
u
WARNING
Fire hazard and danger of damage!
Do not place appliances emitting heat e.g. microwaves,
u
toasters etc. on the appliance!
Note*
The bags at the rear of the appliance are important for proper operation. Their contents are nontoxic and nonhazardous.
Do not remove the bags!
u
NOTICE
Risk of damage from condensation! If your appliance is not a Side-by-Side (SBS) appliance:
do not install the appliance directly next to another fridge/
u
freezer.
If your appliance is a Side-by-Side (SBS) appliance:
install the SBS fridge-freezer combination according to the
u
accompanying sheet.
In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the
q
supplier immediately before connecting to the mains. The floor at the site must be flat and level.
q
Do not install the appliance in a location where it is exposed
q
to direct radiation of the sun, next to a cooker, heater and similar.
2 * Depending on model and options
Do
not install the appliance alone: it is best to work together
q
with two or more people. The more R 600a refrigerant there is in the appliance, the
q
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. If the appliance is installed in a very damp environment,
q
condensed water may form on the outside of the appliance. Always make sure that there is good ventilation - both at air inlet and outlet - at the site of installation.
If the transport lock is inserted on the door:
Pull off red transport lock.
u
If the transport lock is screwed onto the door:
Unscrew red transport lock.
u
Close the freed retaining hole with plugs (60).

6 Unit door

One door is required for the kitchen unit.
-
The door must be minimum 16 mm and maximum 19 mm
-
thick. There must be a gap of minimum 3 mm width between the
-
door and the unit door located above it (if one exists). The width of the unit door depends on the style of the
-
kitchen and the gap size between the door panels of the cabinet. Generally, there should remain a vertical gap of 3 mm between the unit doors. If other cabinets are present, the top edge of the unit door
-
should be on a level with the doors of the adjoining units. The unit door must be planar and mounted stress-free.
-
NOTICE
Risk of damage from over-heavy unit door! If the unit door is too heavy, damage to the hinges and resulting impairment of function cannot be excluded.

Changing over door hinges

8 Changing over door hinges

NOTICE
Risk of condensation damage for Side-by-Side appliances! Certain appliances can be set up as Side-by-Side combina­tions (two appliances next to each other). If your appliance is a Side-by-Side (SBS) appliance:
Set up the SBS combination in accordance with the
u
enclosed document.
If the positioning of the devices is stipulated:
Do not change the door hinges over.
u
CAUTION
Risk of injury if soft stop contracts!
Carefully remove the soft stop mechanism.
u
CAUTION
Risk of injury if hinges fold!
Leave hinges open.
u
WARNING
Risk of injury due to the door dropping out! If the fastening parts are not screwed into place firmly enough, the door may drop out. This may lead to severe injuries. What is more, the door may not close and therefore the appliance may fail to cool properly.
Screw the hinges and the ball journal of the soft stop mecha-
u
nism firmly into place, with 4 Nm. Screw the holder of the soft stop mechanism firmly into
u
place, with at least 3 Nm. Check all of the screws and retighten if necessary.
u
Note
The door hinges can only be changed over if there is sufficient space towards the top to pull out the hinge mounting bracket and to mount it again on the other side. This is generally not the case after installation in the recess.
Change the hinges over before the appliance is installed in
u
the recess.
There is a risk of injury during this stage! Please observe the safety instructions!
The instructions apply to several models. Only carry out this step if it is relevant for your appliance.

9 Water connection*

WARNING
Danger of electric shock!
Disconnect the appliance by unplugging it before you
u
connect it to the water line. Shut off the water supply before you connect the water feed
u
lines of the IceMaker. The connection to the drinking water system may be carried
u
out only by a qualified gas fitter and plumber.
WARNING
Risk of poisoning!
The water quality has to comply with the drinking water ordi-
u
nance of the respective country (e.g. 98/8 Connect to the drinking water supply only.
u
The IceMaker serves exclusively for making ice cubes in
u
household quantities and has to be operated with water suit­able for the purpose.
Fig. 5
- The water pressure has to be between 0.15 MPa and
0.6 MPa (1.5 bar - 6 bar).
- The water supply to the appliance must be via a cold water pipe which withstands the operating pressure and complies with the hygiene regulations. Use the accompanying stainless steel hose (1.5 m). Do not reuse old hoses. A 3 m hose is available from the customer service department and has to be fitted by an expert. In the hose connecting piece is a sieve with seal.
- Between the hose and the domestic water connection there has to be a stopcock to interrupt the water supply in case of need.
- All the fixtures and fittings used for water supply have to comply with the applicable regulations of the respective country.
- Do not damage or kink the water inlet pipe when installing the appliance.
Choose between the alternatives given.
Loosen the screws only, do not undo them all the way.
Check the screws and tighten if necessary.
While changing over the door hinges, observe the safety
u
instructions above and also the information in the symbols key.
Change the hinges over as shown at the end of the book.
Fig. 6
The solenoid valve is at the bottom back of the appliance. It has a metric R3/4 connecting thread.
Connect the stainless steel hose: Connect the fitting with the strainer to the stopcock.
u
Connect the other end of the hose to the solenoid valve.
u
Fix the stainless steel hose to the housing with the locking
u
hook.
