1 Safety
The safety of our appliances is in accordance with recognised techno-
logical standards and appliance safety legislation. We nevertheless feel 
that it is important to acquaint you with the following safety guideli-
nes:
Use for Intended Purpose
• The appliance is intended for household use. It is suited for the refri-
geration, freezing and frozen storage of foods as well as the prepara-
tion of ice. 
 Alterations or changes to the appliance are not permitted for reasons 
of safety.
 If you use the refrigerator/freezer in a commercial application or for 
purposes other than the refrigeration, freezing or frozen storage of 
foods, please observe all valid legal regulations for your application.
Prior to initial start-up
 Check the refrigerator/freezer for transport damage. Do not under 
any circumstances connect a damaged appliance! Please contact your 
supplier in the event of damage.
 Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the 
back of the fridge/freezer. A damaged power plug may overheat and 
cause a fire.
 If the power plug socket is loose, do not insert the power plug. There 
is a risk of electric shock or fire. 
Refrigerant
The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant 
circuit of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of environmen-
tal compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable.
Warning - During transportation and installation of the appliance, 
be certain that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit 
become damaged.
 If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:
– avoid open flames and sources of ignition;
– thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.
Safety for Children
 Packaging materials (e.g. films, styrofoam) can be dangerous for 
children. Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging materials away from 
children!
 
						

							Safety
40
 Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable. Remove 
plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any snap 
or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing children lock 
themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place them-
selves into other life-endangering situations.
 Children often do not recognise the dangers involved with household 
appliances. Please provide for the necessary supervision and do not 
allow children to play with the appliance!
Daily Operation
 Containers with flammable gases or fluids can develop leaks through 
contact with the cold. Danger of explosion! Do not store containers 
with flammable substances, such as aerosol cans, refill cartridges for 
cigarette lighters etc. in the refrigerator/freezer.
 Bottles and cans may not be placed in the freezer compartment. They 
can burst when the contents freeze - or even explode if the contents 
contain carbonic acid! Never place sodas, juices, beer, wine, champa-
gne etc. into the freezer compartment. Exception: Spirits with high 
alcohol content may be stored in the freezer compartment.
 Do not place ice cream or ice cubes directly from the freezer com-
partment into the mouth. Very cold ice can freeze to the lips or ton-
gue and cause injury.
 Never touch frozen goods with wet hands. Hands can freeze to the 
goods.
Warning - Do not operate any electrical appliances in the appliance 
(e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.) unless they have been 
authorised by the manufacturer. 
Warning - In order not to impair the function of the appliance, never 
cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
Warning - Do not use any mechanical devices or other artificial 
means to speed up defrosting unless they are recommended by the 
manufacturer.
 Before cleaning the appliance switch off and remove the plug from 
the mains, or switch off or turn out the circuit breaker or fuse.
 Placing frozen goods on the top of the appliance can lead to the 
accumulation of condensate in the cavity of the storage tray through 
contact with the cold. Electronic components are housed within this 
cavity. If condensate should drip onto these components, the 
appliance could be damaged by a short circuit. For this reason do not 
place frozen goods on top of the appliance.
 
						

							Safety
41
 Do not remove the power cord by pulling on its lead, particularly 
when the fridge/freezer is being pulled out of its niche. Damage to 
the cord may cause a short circuit, fire and/or electric shock.
 Do not place heavy articles or the fridge/freezer itself on the power 
cord. There is a risk of a short circuit and fire. 
 If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a certified 
service agent or qualified personnel.
In case of malfunction
 If a malfunction should occur at the appliance, refer first to the sec-
tion What to do if ... in these operating instruction. If the instruc-
tions in this section are not sufficient, do not undertake any further 
work on your own.
 Refrigerators/feezers may only be repaired by trained personnel. 
Repairs carried out by untrained personnel can lead to substantial 
danger. Please contact your dealer or our customer service depart-
ment for repairs.

Environmental Information
Packaging 
All transit packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can 
be reused. Wood is un-treated. The plastics can be recycled and are 
identified as follows:
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the 
interior.
>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are pure hydrocarbon 
compounds and can be recycled.
The carton parts are made from recycled paper. Please dispose of the 
packaging with due care for the environment.
Old Appliances
For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be disposed 
of properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of its 
service life - for your new appliance as well.
1 Warning!  Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable. 
Remove plug from mains, sever the power cable, remove or destroy any 
snap or latch closures. This eliminates the danger that playing children 
lock themselves into the appliance (danger of suffocation!) or place 
themselves into other life-endangering situations.
Disposal:
 The appliance may not be disposed of with domestic waste or bulky 
refuse.
 The refrigerant circuit, especially the heat exchanger at the back of 
the appliance, may not be damaged.
 Information concerning collection schedules or locations can be 
obtained from the local disposal authorities or town hall. 
 
						

							43
Appliance Transport
Two persons are required for transport of the appliance. There are two 
recessed handles at the back of the appliance at the top for improved 
gripping.
0 1.Grip the appliance with the recessed handles positioned as in the draw-
ing, and transport the appliance.
2.In order to push the appliance into its final position, press carefully at 
the top of the door and tip the appliance back slightly. The weight is 
thus transferred to the back wheels and the appliance can be easily 
pushed. 
Before Use 
Packaging 
0 1.Remove all adhesive tape and packaging  from the interior of the appli-
ance.
3 Any remnants of adhesive can be removed with white spirit.
2.Remove the transport protection pieces and pull off the adhesive tape.

Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be installed in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by 
the ambient temperature.
The appliance should therefore
– not be exposed to direct sunlight;
– not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
– only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature 
corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is 
designed.
The climate classification can be found on the rating plate, which is 
located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for 
each climate classification:
If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following 
minimum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the appliance:
– for electric cookers 3 cm;
– for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.
If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is requi-
red between the cooker and the refrigeration appliance.
Climate classificationfor an ambient temperature of
SN+10 to +32 °C
N+16 to +32 °C
ST+18 to +38 °C
T+18 to +43 °C
