m Safety and warning
information
Before you switch ON the appliance
Please read the operating and installation instructions carefully! They contain important information on how to install, use and maintain the appliance.
The manufacturer is not liable if you fail to comply with the instructions and warnings. Retain all documents for subsequent use or for the next owner.
Technical safety
The appliance contains a small quantity of environmentally friendly but flammable refrigerant R600a. 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
ʋ Keep naked flames and/or ignition
sources away from the appliance,
ʋ thoroughly ventilate the room for several
minutes,
ʋ switch off the appliance and pull out the
mains plug,
ʋ inform customer service.
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.

Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is the ideal storage location for ready meals, cakes and pastries, preserved food, condensed milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables sensitive to cold as well as tropical fruit.
When purchasing food, please note:
The “purchase freshness” is important for the shelf-life of your food.
In principle, the following applies: the fresher you store the food in the appliance, the longer it will remain fresh.
Therefore, when buying food, pay attention to the degree of freshness.
In the case of ready-made products and bottled goods, observe the best-before date or use-by date specified by the manufacturer.
Arranging food in the appliance
ʋ Wrap or cover food before placing in the appliance.
