Liebherr is commited to the protection of the environment and recognizes it
as a critical priority. To guarantee an optimum and consistent implementation,
all ecological aspects were observed and integrated into the quality control of
Liebherr in compliance with DIN EN ISO 9001.

Liebherr's Commitment to the Environment

The components of Liebherr products can be recycled when the necessary
resources are applied. A concern for the environment and a desire to protect
resources has lead to increased levels of recycling year after year. When
Liebherr manufactures products, it is essential that the recyclable recovery rate
of the materials we use constantly increases.

Recycling is a common goal among all manufacturers, municipalities and
recycling companies to protect our environment. Protecting the environment
and producing products which have a low impact on the environment, is one
of Liebherr's core values. Whether you are replacing a unit or starting fresh,
remember to dispose of your old appliance in an environmentally safe and
friendly manner.

General Remarks

II. Electrical Requirements & Safety

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 15 Amp fused electrical supply is
required. Connect undercounter wine cabinet to a 115
VAC, 10 amp (15 Amp for side-by-side installations) cir­cuit that is controlled by a circuit breaker or fuse.
We recommend using a dedicated circuit for these ap­pliances to prevent electrical overload. Comply with
the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and
ordinances when installing the receptacle.

The power cord is equipped with a three-prong (ground­ing) plug for your protection against possible shock
hazards. To maintain this protection:

• Do not modify the plug by removing the round ground­ing prong.

• Do not use a power cord that is frayed or damaged.

Do not ground to a gas pipe. Check with a
qualified electrician if you are not sure the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not have
a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

ELECTROCUTION HAZARD

Electrical Grounding Required. This
appliance is equipped with a three­prong(grounding) polarized plug for your
protection against possible shock hazards.

• DO NOT remove the round grounding

prong from the plug.

• DO NOT use a two-prong grounding

adapter.

• DO NOT use an extension cord to connect

power to the unit.

III. Area Requirements

Verify the following:

• Finished kitchen floor height is level. Refrigerator must
be shimmed to the floor level, or levelled, to make
sure, air vents are not obstructed.

• Remove anything attached to the rear or side walls
that can obstruct refrigerator opening.

• Cutout dimensions are accurate.

• Electrical outlet is in correct location.

Do not install this unit next to any other refrigerator or
freezer except another Liebherr model. Liebherr models
are designed to allow side by side installation. They are
equipped with a heating system to eliminate condensa­tion when units are installed side by side. Installing this
unit next to any other refrigerator or freezer can cause
condensation or cause damage to the Liebherr unit.

To protect the refrigerator from possible
damage, allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to
1 hour in place before turning the electricity
on. This allows the refrigerant and system
lubrication to reach equilibrium.
