concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
Daily Operation
 Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low temperatures.
There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flammable
materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill
cartridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.
 Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer compartment. They can
burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even
explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in
the freezer compartment. Exception: high alcohol content spirits can be
stored in the freezer compartment.
 Do not put ice creams or ice cubes in the mouth immediately after
removal from the freezer compartment. Very cold ice can freeze to the lips
or tongue and cause injury.

repairing, please contact your specialist dealer or our Customer Service.
Disposal
Appliance Packaging Information
All materials are environmentally sound! They can be dumped or burned at
an incinerating plant without danger!
About the materials: 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 all free of
chlorofluorocarbon.
 
						

							6
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be disposed of
at a waste-paper recycling collection location.
Disposal of 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.
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.
 The symbol  on the product or on its packaging indicates that
this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall
be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling
of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is
disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative
consequences for the environment and human health, which could
otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this
product. For more detailed information about recycling of this
product, please contact your local city office, your household waste
disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.
Remove transport safeguard
The appliance and the interior fittings are protected for transport.
 Remove all adhesive tape and packing pieces from the interior of the
appliance.
Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use 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.
 
						

							7
Climate classificationfor an ambient temperature of
SN+10 bis +32 °C
N+16 bis +32 °C
ST+18 bis +38 °C
T+18 bis +43 °C
The climate classification can be found on the serial 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: 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
required between the cooker and the
refrigeration appliance.
If the refrigeration appliance is
installed next to another refrigerator
or freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the
sides is required, in order to prevent
the formation of condensation on
the outside of the appliance.
Your appliance needs air
For safety reasons, minimum
ventilation must be as shown Fig.
Attention: keep ventilation
openings clear of obstruction.
Rear spacers
Inside the appliance you find two
spacers which must be fitted.
Slacken the screws and insert the
spacer under the screw head, then
re-tighten the screws.
 
						

							8
Electrical connection
Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain if
supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the mains at the
installation location.
e.g.:  AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or
220 ... 240 V~ 50 Hz
(i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz)
The rating plate is inside the appliance on the left.
A correctly installed, earthed socket is required for the electrical supply. The
supply must have a fuse rating of at least 10 Amps.
If the socket is not accessible once the appliance is built in, the electrical
installation must include suitable means of isolating the appliance from the
mains (e.g. fuse, cut-out, current trip or similar with a minimum contact
separation of 3 mm).
Attention: The mains connection cable may only be replaced by a skilled
electrician. Please contact your dealer or our customer service department
for repairs.
Prior to Initial Start–Up

DESIRED temperature means:
The temperature that has been selected for inside the fridge or the freezer
compartment. The DESIRED temperature is indicated by flashing numbers.
ACTUAL temperature means:
The temperature display indicates the current temperature inside the fridge
or the freezer compartment. The ACTUAL temperature is indicated with
illuminated numbers.
Temperature Displays
The temperature displays shows several types of information.
 In normal operation the average temperature in the fridge section is
displayed (ACTUAL temperature). The variations in temperature in the whole
fridge section are small.
 In the freezer section the warmest temperature is displayed (ACTUAL
temperature). When fully filled, the warmest zone is normally located at the
top in the front area of the freezer section. Depending upon how the
section is filled, the temperatures are lower in other areas of the freezer
section.
 When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates the
fridge or the freezer compartment temperature currently set (DESIRED
temperature).
Tip: When changing the temperature setting wait about 24 hours until the
temperature display has stabilised.
 When there is a temperature warning for the freezer compartment, if the
RESET button is activated, the temperature display will show for 5 seconds
the warmest temperature the frozen food has reached.
 If there is a fault in the appliance the temperature display shows:
