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 socket should be freely accessible.
Connect the appliance only to
220ć240 V/50 Hz alternating current via
a correctly installed earthed socket.
The socket must be fused with a 10 A
to 16 A fuse.
If the appliance is to be operated in
a nonĆEuropean country, check on
the rating plate whether the indicated
voltage and current type correspond
to the values of your mains supply.
The rating plate is situated in the bottom
leftĆhand side of the appliance. The power
cord may be replaced by a technician
only.

Warning
Never connect the appliance to electronic
energy saver plugs or to power inverters
which convert the direct current to 230 V
alternating current (e.g. solar equipment,
power supplies on ships).

Operating tips
S While the refrigerating unit is running,
beads of water or hoarfrost form at the
back of the refrigerator compartment.
This is quite normal. It is not necessary
to scrape off the frost or wipe off the
beads of water. The rear panel defrosts
automatically. The condensation flows
into the evaporation area of the
appliance via the condensation
channels and the drainage hole.
S The fully automatic Nofrost system
ensures that the freezer and refrigerator
compartments remain free of ice.
Defrosting is not required.
S The sides of the housing are sometimes
heated slightly. This prevents condenĆ
sation in the area of the door seal.
S If you cannot open the freezer compartĆ
ment door immediately after closing it,
wait 2-3 minutes until the partial vacuum
has equalised.
