Warning
Redundant appliances
1. Pull out the mains plug.
2. Cut off the power cord and discard with
the mains plug.
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.
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.
Retain all documents for subsequent use or
for the next owner.
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,
– Notify 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 m
refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in your
appliance is indicated on the rating plate
inside the appliance.
Only customer service may change the
power cord and carry out any other repairs.
Improper installations and repairs may put
the user at considerable risk.

Room 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 at the bottom left-hand side in the
appliance.
Climate class 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
Ventilation
Fig.1/23
This area needs to be well ventilated.
Otherwise, the refrigeration unit will work
harder. This increases energy consumption.
Therefore: Never cover or block the ventilation
opening!
Installing the appliance
Connecting the
appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least
1 hour until the appliance starts up.
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 socket should be freely accessible.
Connect the appliance only to 220–240 V/
50 Hz alternating current via a correctly
installed earthed socket. The socket must be
fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.
For appliances operated in non-European
countries, check whether the stated voltage
and current type on the rating plate match the
values of your mains supply. The rating plate
is situated in the bottom left-hand side of the
appliance. The power cord may be replaced
by a technician only.
m
Warning
Never connect the appliance to electronic
energy saver plugs or to power inverters
which convert the direct current to 230 V
alternating current (e.g. solar equipment,
power supplies on ships).
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.
