Important Safety Instructions

These warnings are provided in the interests of your safety. Ensure
you fully understand them before installing or using the appliance.
Your safety is of paramount importance. If you are unsure about the
meaning of these warnings contact the Customer Care Department
for assistance.
Intended use

¥ The refrigerator is intended for use in the home. It is suitable for thestoring of food at low temperature. If the appliance is used for pur-
poses other than those intended or used incorrectly, no liability can
be accepted by the manufacturer for any damage that may be
caused.
¥ Alterations or changes to the refrigerator are not permitted for rea- sons of safety.
¥ If you use the refrigerator in a commercial  environment or for pur-
poses other than the cooling of foods, the manufacturer accepts no
liability for any damages which may occur.

Prior to initial startÐup

¥ Check the appliance for transport damage. Under no circumstance should a damaged appliance be plugged in. In the event of damage,
please contact your supplier.
¥ Ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. 

Important:
if the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced
by a cable available from the manufacturer or your local Service
Force Centre.

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:
Ð avoid open flames and sources of ignition;
Ð thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.

Safety of children

¥ Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from
children!

Important Safety Instructions
¥ Please make old appliances unusable prior to disposal. Pull out themains plug, cut off the mains cable, break or remove spring or bolt
catches, if fitted. By doing this you ensure that children cannot lock
themselves in the appliance when playing (there is risk of suffoca-
tion!) or get themselves into other dangerous situations.
¥ Often children cannot recognise the hazards present in household appliances. It is therefore important that you ensure adequate super-
vision and never let children play with the appliance!

Daily Operation

¥ Containers with flammable gases or liquids can leak at low tempera- tures. There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers
with flammable materials such as spray cans, fire extinguisher refill
cartridges etc in the refrigerator and/or freezer.
¥ 

Warning
- Do not operate any electrical appliances in the refrigera-
tor and/or freezer (e.g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).
¥ 

Warning
- In order not to impair the function of the appliance,
never cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
¥ 

Warning
- Do not damage the cooling circuit.
¥ Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance and unplug it, or pull the house fuse or switch off the circuit breaker.
¥ When unplugging always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.

In case of malfunction

¥ If a malfunction occurs on the appliance, please look first in theWhat to do if ... section of these instructions. If the information
given there does not help, please do not perform any further repairs
yourself.
¥ This product should be serviced by an authorised engineer and only genuine spare parts should be used.
¥ Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause
injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service Force
Centre.

Disposal
Appliance Packaging Information

All materials are environmentally sound! They can be disposed of 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 chlo-
rofluorocarbon.
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 ensures  that children do not lock
themselves inside 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, must 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 conse-
quences for the environment and human health, which could other-
wise 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 packaging

The appliance and the interior fittings are protected for transport.

+
1.
Pull off the adhesive tape on the left and right side of the door.

2.
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 and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by
the ambient temperature.
The appliance should therefore
Ð not be exposed to direct sunlight;
Ð not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
Ð 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 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:
Installation directly under a hob is not allowed. The temperatures of
the hob, which in part are quite high, may damage the appliance. 
If a hob is installed near the appliance, the corresponding installation
and safety instructions must be adhered to. Considering the numerous
installation conditions which are possible, there is no way of providing
detailed information here.

SN+10 to +32 ¡C
N+16 to +32 ¡C
ST+18 to +38 ¡C
T+18 to +43 ¡C

Installation

Building-in

Please check whether, after installing your appliance and especially
after reversing the door, the door seal seals right round. A badly fitting
door seal may lead to heavy frosting and thereby to a higher power
consumption (see also ãWhat to do if...Ò).

Your refrigerator needs air
Integratable models (i-appliances)

The integrated door of the furniture cabi-
net largely seals the installation recess. 
i-appliances must therefore be provided
with ventilation by having an opening in
the furniture plinth. The warmed air must
be able to be exhausted upwards through
the air shaft on the furniture back. The
ventilation cross-sections should be at least
200 cm
2.

Warning
-  To ensure the appliance functions correctly, never cover or
obstruct the ventilation openings.

It is necessary to avoid overheating of the refrigerator by maintaining
adequate distances from heat sources and by the use of a suitable
thermal insulation plate. Proper ventilation of the appliance must also
be ensured.
