according to the enclosed installation instructions.
,WARNING:
Do not install this appliance:
■outdoors,
■in an environment with dripping water,
■in rooms where there is a risk of frost.
Transporting
The appliances are heavy and must be secured during
transportation and installation.
Because of the weight/dimensions of the appliance
and to minimise the risk of injuries and damage
to the appliance at least two persons are necessary
to set-up the appliance securely.
Installation location
A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as an installation
location. The installation location should not be
exposed to direct sunlight and not placed 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 from
the heat source:
■to electric or gas cookers 11/4”(3cm).
■to an oil or coal-fired cooker 1113/16”(30cm).
The floor of the installation location must not give way;
if required, reinforce floor. To ensure that the ice maker
functions correctly, the appliance must be upright.
Ventilation
The refrigeration unit is ventilated only via
the ventilation grille in the base. Never cover
the ventilation grille or place anything in front of it.
Otherwise the refrigeration unit must work harder,
increasing the power consumption.
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 appliance”).

Avoid the risk of an electric shock!
,WARNING:
Insert into a grounded 3-phase socket. Never
remove grounding phase. Do not use any
adapters. Do not use any extension cables.
,WARNING:
Non-compliance with these instructions may
result in death, fire or an electric shock.
Improper connection of the protective conductor
may result in an electric shock. If you are in
doubt whether the appliance has been grounded
properly, have the appliance tested by
a qualified electrician or service technician.
The socket must be near the appliance and also freely
accessible following installation of the appliance.
The appliance complies with protection class I.
Connect the appliance to 115 V/60 Hz alternating
current via a correctly installed socket with protective
conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 to 16 A
fuse.
The appliance comes with a UL registered 3-wire power
cord. The appliance requires a 3-pole socket.
Please observe the following table with regard to this:
Check on the rating plate whether the indicated voltage

Placing bottles in the refrigerator
Storage example
Practical tips for storing wine
■Unpack bottles of wine – do not leave in crates
or cardboard boxes – before storing
in the refrigerator compartment.
■Place old bottles so that the cork is always wet.
There should never be an air gap between the wine
and the cork.
■The open bottle shelves are especially suitable
because they do not interrupt the air circulation. As
a result, the atmospheric humidity which condenses
on the bottles quickly dries again.
■Before drinking your wine, let it stand until it reaches
room temperature: For example rosé takes about
two to five hours and red wine four to five hours
before they reach the right drinking temperature.
The wine will then be at the correct drinking
temperature. Sparkling wine and Champagne should
be cooled in the refrigerator shortly before drinking.
■Remember that wine should always be cooled
slightly lower than the ideal serving temperature, as
its temperature increases as soon as it is poured
into a glass!
Drinking temperatures
The correct serving temperature is crucial for the taste
and therefore your enjoyment of the wine.
We recommend serving wine at the following drinking
temperatures:
Type of wine Drinking temperature
Bordeaux red 65 °F (18 °C)
Côtes du Rhône red/
Barolo
64 °F (17 °C)
Burgundy red/ Bor-
deaux red
61 °F (16 °C)
Port 59 °F (15 °C)

pas l’enlever non plus.
L’appareil requiert une prise à trois pôles. Le
branchement de la prise est une opération
exclusivement réservée à un électricien qualifié.
En présence d’une prise murale standard bipolaire,
le client a la responsabilité et se trouve dans
l’obligation personnelles de la faire remplacer par une
prise murale tripolaire réglementairement reliée
à la terre. N’utilisez pas de connecteur adaptateur.
Pendant l’utilisation
■N’utilisez pas d’appareils électriques à l’intérieur
de l’appareil (par ex. appareils de chauffage,
machine à glaçons, etc.). Risque d’explosion !
■Ne dégivrez et ne nettoyez jamais l’appareil avec
un nettoyeur à vapeur ! La vapeur risque d’atteindre
des pièces électriques et de provoquer un court-
circuit. Risque de choc électrique !
■ Pour détacher le givre ou les couches de glace,
n’utilisez jamais d’objets pointus ou présentant des
arêtes vives. Vous risqueriez d’endommager
les tubulures dans lesquelles circule le produit
réfrigérant. Le fluide réfrigérant en train de jaillir risque
de s’enflammer ou de provoquer des lésions oculaires.
■Ne stockez dans l’appareil ni produits contenant des
gaz propulseurs inflammables (par ex. bombes
aérosols) ni produits explosifs. Risque d’explosion !
■Ne vous servez pas des socles, clayettes et portes
comme marchepieds ou pour vous appuyer.
■Pour dégivrer et nettoyer l’appareil, déconnectez
la fiche mâle de la prise de courant ou retirez
le fusible / désarmez le disjoncteur.
Pour déconnecter l’appareil, tirez sur la fiche mâle
et non pas sur son cordon.
■ Stockez les boissons fortement alcoolisées en position
verticale dans des récipients bien fermés.
■L’huile et la graisse ne doivent pas entrer en contact
avec les parties en matières plastiques et le joint
de porte. Ces derniers pourraient sinon devenir
poreux.
■Ne recouvrez et n’obstruez jamais les orifices
de ventilation de l’appareil.
■Cet appareil ne pourra être utilisé par des personnes
(enfants compris) présentant des capacités physi-
ques, sensorielles ou psychiques restreintes ou
manquant de connaissances que sous
la surveillance d’une personne chargée de leur
sécurité ou après que cette dernière leur aura
enseigné à utiliser l’appareil.

Installation de l’appareil
Faites installer l’appareil par un spécialiste qui
respectera le contenu de la notice de montage ci-
jointe.
,AVERTISSEMENT :
N’installez pas cet appareil :
■En plein air
■Dans un environnement où de l’eau goutte,
■Dans des locaux à risque de gel.
Transport
Les appareils sont lourds. Il faut les sécuriser en vue du
transport et pendant le montage.
En raison du poids et des dimensions de l’appareil,
pour réduire au maximum le risque de blessures
ou d’endommager l’appareil, il faudra au moins deux
personnes pour installer l’appareil de manière sûre.
Lieu d’installation
Un local sec et aérable convient comme lieu
d’installation. Il faudrait que le lieu d’installation ne soit
pas directement exposé aux rayons solaires et pas
à proximité d’une source de chaleur (cuisinière,
radiateur, etc.). Si l’installation à côté d’une source
de chaleur est inévitable, veuillez utiliser un panneau
isolant approprié ou respecter les écarts minimums
suivants par rapport à la source de chaleur :
■1/4” (3 cm) par rapport aux cuisinières électriques
ou à gaz.
■11 13/16” (30 cm) par rapport à un appareil
de chauffage au fuel ou au charbon.
Sur l’emplacement, le sol ne doit pas s’affaisser.
Renforcez-le le cas échéant. Afin que le distributeur
de glaçons fonctionne impeccablement, l’appareil doit
se trouver parfaitement à la verticale.
Aération
L’air destiné au groupe frigorifique rentre et sort par
la grille d’aération située dans le socle. Ne recouvrez
en aucun cas la grille d’aération et ne placez rien
devant. Le groupe frigorifique se trouverait sinon
sollicité plus fortement, ce qui augmenterait la
consommation de courant.
Étendue des fournitures
Après avoir déballé, vérifiez toutes les pièces pour
détecter d’éventuels dégâts dus au transport.
En cas de réclamation, veuillez vous adresser au
revendeur auprès duquel vous avez acquis l’appareil
ou auprès de notre service après-vente.
La livraison comprend les pièces suivantes :
■Appareil encastrable
■Notice d’utilisation
■Notice de montage
■Pièce annexe de la garantie
■Informations relatives à la consommation d’énergie
et aux bruits
■Sachet avec quincaillerie de montage
Branchement de l’appareil
Après l’installation de l’appareil en position verticale,
attendez au moins une heure avant de le mettre
en service. Il peut en effet arriver, pendant le transport,
que l’huile présente dans le compresseur se déplace
vers le circuit frigorifique.
Avant la première mise en service, nettoyez
le compartiment intérieur de l’appareil. (Voir le chapitre
« Nettoyage de l’appareil ».)
Connexion électrique
,AVERTISSEMENT :
Évitez le risque de choc électrique !
,AVERTISSEMENT :
Connectez avec une prise femelle tripolaire
reliée à la terre. N’enlevez jamais la phase
de terre. N’utilisez aucun adaptateur. N’utilisez
aucun prolongateur.
,AVERTISSEMENT :
Une erreur dans l’exécution de ces instructions
peut entraîner la mort, un incendie ou un choc
électrique. La connexion incorrecte du fil de terre
peut entraîner un choc électrique. Si vous n’êtes
pas certain(e) que l’appareil a été correctement
connecté à la terre, faites-le vérifier
par un électricien qualifié ou par un technicien
du service après-vente.
La prise doit être proche de l’appareil et demeurer
librement accessibles même après avoir installé ce
dernier.
L’appareil est conforme à la classe de protection I.
Connectez l’appareil au courant alternatif 115 Hz /
60 Hz, via une prise femelle installée
réglementairement et comportant un fil de terre.

,AVERTISSEMENT :
Il ne faut en aucun cas raccorder l’appareil
à des fiches électroniques d’économie
d’énergie.
Nos appareils peuvent être alimentés via des
onduleurs pilotés par le secteur ou à pilotage
sinusoïdal. Directement raccordées au secteur
public, les installations photovoltaïques font
appel à des onduleurs pilotés par le secteur.
Dans les solutions en îlots (p. ex. sur les bateaux
ou les refuges de montagne), ne disposant pas
d’un raccordement direct au secteur électrique
public, il faut utiliser des onduleurs à pilotage
sinusoïdal.
