materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances.
ã=Warning
Redundant appliances
1. Pull out the mains plug.
2. Cut off the power cord and discard with the mains
plug.
3. Do not take out the trays and receptacles: children
are therefore prevented from climbing in!
4. Do not allow children to play with the appliance once
it has spent its useful life. Danger of suffocation!
Refrigerators contain refrigerant and gases
in the insulation. Refrigerant and gases must be
disposed of professionally. Ensure that tubing
of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged prior to proper
disposal.
Installing the appliance
Have a technician install and connect the appliance
according to the enclosed installation instructions.
Transpo rting
The appliances are heavy and must be secured during
transportation and installation.
Because of the weight / dimensions of the appliance
and to minimise the risk of injuries and damage to
the appliance at least two persons are necessary to
set-up the appliance securely.
Installation location
A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as an installation
location. The installation location should not be
exposed to direct sunlight and not placed 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 from the heat source:
■ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
■ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
The floor of the installation location must not give way;
if required, reinforce floor. To ensure that the ice maker
functions correctly, the appliance must be upright.
Ambient temperature
and ventilation
Ambient temperature
The climate class can be found on the rating plate.
The climate class indicates within which ambient
temperatures the appliance can be operated.
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
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 opening!
This appliance is identified
according to the European
guideline 2002/96/EC on waste
electrical and electronic
equipment – WEEE. The directive
specifies the framework for an
EU-wide valid return and re-use
of old appliances.

Water connection
ã=Caution
Connect the appliance to a drinking water line.
The water may be connected only by a competent fitter
according to the local regulations of the appropriate
water supply company.
A cold water connection is necessary for operating
the automatic ice maker. The water pressure must be
between 0.17 MPa and 10 MPa (1.7 and 10 bar). The
installation must correspond to the local plumbing
regulations.
A separate shut-off valve should be installed in
the cold-water inflow.
The shut-off valve should not be located behind
the appliance. It is recommended that you mount
the shut-off valve directly next to the appliance or at
another place which is easily accessible.
When installing the water connection, pay attention to
the permissible installation area for the water mains.
For connection to the drinking water mains use only
water pipes which are suitable for drinking water.
Observe national regulations and the connection
conditions of the local water supply companies.
The maximum outside diameter of the water mains
(without connecting pieces) is 10 mm.
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.
For appliances operated in non-European countries,
the identification plate should be checked whether
the electric supply and the current model stated match
the values of the mains supply. The rating plate is
situated in the bottom left-hand side of the appliance.
ã=Warning
Never connect the appliance to electronic energy saver
plugs.
Our appliances can be used with mains and sinecontrolled 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.
