Technical safety
This appliance contains a small quantity
of environmentally-friendly but flammable
R600a refrigerant. Ensure that the tubing
of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged
during transportation and installation.
Leaking refrigerant may cause eye
injuries or ignite.
If damage has occurred
■ Keep naked flames and/or ignition
sources away from the appliance,
■ thoroughly ventilate the room for
several minutes,
■ switch off the appliance and pull out
the mains plug,
■ inform customer service.
en
The more refrigerant an appliance
contains, the larger the room must be
in which the appliance is situated.
Leaking refrigerant can form a flammable
gas-air mixture in rooms which are too
small.
The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g
of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant
in your appliance is indicated on
the rating plate inside the appliance.
If the power cord of this appliance is
damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, customer service or
a similarly qualified person.
Improper installations and repairs may
put the user at considerable risk.
Repairs may be performed by the
manufacturer, customer service
or a similarly qualified person only.
Only original parts supplied by the
manufacturer may be used.
The manufacturer guarantees that
only these parts satisfy the safety
requirements.
A extension cable may be purchased
from customer service only.

Room temperature,
ventilation
and cavity depth
Ambient temperature
The appliance is designed for a specific
climate class. Depending on the climate
class, the appliance can be operated at
the following temperatures.
The climate class can be found on
the rating plate. Fig. /
Climate class Permitted ambient temperature
SN+10 °C to 32 °C
N+16 °C to 32 °C
ST+16 °C to 38 °C
T+16 °C to 43 °C
Note
The appliance is fully functional within
the room temperature limits of the
indicated climatic class. If an appliance
of climatic class SN is operated at colder
room temperatures, the appliance
will not be damaged up to a temperature
of +5 °C.
Ventilation
The air on the rear panel of the appliance
heats up. Conduction of the heated air
must not be obstructed.
Otherwise, the refrigeration unit must
work harder. This increases power
consumption. Therefore: Never cover
or block the ventilation openings!
Cavity depth
A cavity depth of 560 mm is
recommended for the appliance.
If the cavity depth is smaller – at least
550 mm – the energy consumption
increases slightly.
Installation location
Install the appliance in a dry, well
ventilated room. The installation location
should neither be exposed to direct
sunlight nor near a heat source, e. g.
a cooker, radiator, etc. If installation next
to a heat source is unavoidable,
use a suitable insulating plate or observe
the following minimum distances to a
heat source:
■ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
■ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
Connecting
the appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least
1 hour until the appliance is switched on.
During transportation the oil in
the compressor may have flowed into
the refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for
the first time, clean the interior of
the appliance (see chapter “Cleaning
the appliance”).
Electrical connection
The socket must be near the appliance
and also freely accessible following
installation of the appliance.
The appliance complies with the
protection class I. Connect the appliance
to 220–240 V/50 Hz alternating current
via a correctly installed socket with
protective conductor. The socket must
be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.

en
For appliances operated in nonEuropean countries, check whether the
stated voltage and current type match
the values of your mains supply.
This information can be found on
the rating plate. Fig. /
m Warning
Never connect the appliance to
electronic energy saver plugs.
Our appliances can be used with mains
and sine-controlled inverters.
Mains-controlled inverters are used for
photovoltaic systems which are
connected directly to the national grid.
Sine-controlled inverters must be used
for isolated applications (e.g. on ships or
in mountain lodges) which are not
connected directly to the national grid.
