Safety and warning
information
Before you put the appliance
into operation
Carefully read through the instructions
for use and assembly instructions. They
contain important information on setting
up, using and maintaining the appliance.
The manufacturer is not liable for any
damage caused by users ignoring the
information and warnings contained in
the instructions for use.
Retain all documents for later use or for
subsequent owners.
Technical safety
The appliance contains a small quantity
of the environmentally-friendly, though
flammable, refrigerant R600a. Make sure
that the pipes of the refrigerant circuit
are not damaged during transport or
installation. If refrigerant shoots out, it
may ignite or cause eye injuries.

nKeep open flames or sources of
ignition away from the appliance.
nSwitch off the appliance and unplug it
from the mains.
nVentilate the room well for a few
minutes.
nInform the after-sales service.
The more refrigerant an appliance
contains, the larger the room must be in
which it stands. If there is a leak and the
room is too small, a flammable gas-air
mixture may form.
The room must be at least 1 m3in size
for each 8 g of refrigerant. The volume
of refrigerant in your appliance is listed
on the rating plate inside the appliance.
If the mains connection cable for this
appliance is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, the
after-sales department or a similarly
qualified person. Incorrect installations
and repairs may put the user at
considerable risk.
Repairs must only be carried out by the
manufacturer, after-sales service, or a
similarly qualified person.
Only original parts from the
manufacturer must be used. The
manufacturer can only guarantee that
the safety requirements are met if these
parts are used.
A mains cable extension lead must only
be procured from the after-sales service.

en

Removing the transport locks
Figure #(not on all models)
Remove the four transport locks that are
attached between the chest lid and the
appliance.
Place two of these transport locks on the
holders provided for them on the rear of
the appliance. This will maintain the
minimum distance from the wall,
meaning that the chest lid can be
opened properly and that adequate
ventilation is ensured. This means that
the appliance will achieve its stated
energy consumption.
Location
The ideal installation location is a dry,
well-ventilated room. The installation
location should not be subject to direct
sunlight or be near a heat source such
as a cooker, heating element, etc. If
setting up the appliance next to a heat
source is unavoidable, use a suitable
insulating plate or observe the following
minimum distances from the heat
source:
n3 cm from an electric or gas cooker.
n30 cm from oil or solid fuel cookers.
If the appliance is placed against the
wall, there must be a minimum distance
of 70 mm to the back panel and to the
side panels.
Floor surface
The floor at the installation location must
not buckle and you may have to
reinforce the floor.
Use a spirit level to align the appliance.
Level out any unevenness in the ground
using support spacers.
Note the room
temperature and
ventilation
Ambient temperature
The appliance is designed for a certain
climate class. Depending on the climate
class, the appliance can be operated at
the following ambient temperatures.
The climate class is specified on the
rating plate, figure !/10.
Climate class Permissible 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
Note!
The appliance can function within the
ambient temperature limits of the
specified climate class.
If an appliance in the SN climate class is
operated at lower ambient temperatures,
damage to the appliance can be
excluded up to a temperature of +5 °C.
Ventilation
Figure *
The air on the appliance's back panel
and side panels heats up. The heated air
must be able to escape unimpeded.
Otherwise, the refrigerating unit has to
work harder, which increases the
appliance's power consumption.
Therefore: You must never cover or
block the ventilation openings!

en

Connecting the
appliance
After setting up the appliance, wait for at
least 1 hour before starting the
appliance up. The oil contained in the
compressor may have been displaced
into the refrigeration system during
transport.
Before starting the appliance up for the
first time, clean its interior (see section
"Cleaning the appliance").
Electrical connection
The socket must be near to the
appliance and easily accessible after the
appliance has been installed.
The appliance conforms to protection
class I. Connect the appliance to a
220-240 V/50 Hz alternating current
supply using a socket with protective
earthing conductor which has been
correctly installed. The socket must be
protected by a fuse with a rating of 10 A
to 16 A.
In the case of appliances operated
outside of Europe, check whether the
voltage and type of current specified
conform to the values of your electricity
grid. You will find this information on the
rating plate, figure +.
!Warning
The appliance must never be connected
up to an electronic energy-saving
socket.

line-commutated inverters can be used
with our appliances. Line-commutated
inverters are used with photovoltaic
systems that are connected directly to
the national grid.
Sinusoidal-communicated inverters must
be used with standalone applications
(e.g. on ships or mountain huts) that do
not have a direct connection to the
national grid.
