Setting up
• Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
stove, heater or similar object.
• The floor on which the appliance stands should be horizontal and
level.Compensate for uneven floors with the adjustable feet.
• Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation openings
or grille.
• Do not place heat-emitting appliances, e.g. microwave oven,
toaster, etc., on top of the freezer.
• Standard EN 378 specifies that the room in which you install your
appliance must have a volume of 1 m
3
per 8 g of R 600a refrigerant
used in the appliance, so as to avoid the formation of inflammable
gas/air mixtures in the room where the appliance is located in the
event of a leak in the refrigerant circuit. The quantity of refrigerant
used in your appliance is indicated on the type plate on the inside
of the appliance.
• Always install the appliance directly against the wall.
Saving energy
- Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation openings
or grille.
- Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
stove, heater or similar object.
- The energy consumption depends on the installation conditions,
e.g. the ambient temperature.
- Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
- Store food logically.
- Ensure that all food is well packed and covered for storage. This
will prevent frost from forming.
- First cool warm food to room temperature before storing it.
- If there is a thick layer of frost in the appliance: defrost the appli-
ance.
Accumulated dust increases the energy consumption:
- Once a year, dust the refrigerating unit together with the metal
grille of the heat exchanger at the back of the appliance.

Electrical connection
Only operate the appliance with alternating current (AC).
The permissible voltage and frequency are indicated on the type
plate. The position of the type plate is shown in the section entitled
Description of the appliance.
The socket must be properly earthed and protected by a fuse.
The tripping current of the fuse must be between 10 A and 16 A.
The socket must not be situated behind the appliance and must
be easily accessible.
Do not connect the appliance using an exten-
sion cable or extension socket.
Do not use stand-alone inverters (conversion
of direct current to alternating current/three-
phase current) or energy-saving plugs. Risk
of damage to the electronic control system!
