Setting up
•Avoid positioning the appliance in direct sunlight or near cookers, radiators and similar sources of heat.
•The floor on which the appliance stands must be horizontal and level. Place the appliance far enough away from the wall so that the lid can be opened and closed unhindered.
1Do not cover the gap between the lower edge of the freezer and the floor, as the refrigeration unit has to be supplied with air for cooling.
2There must be a gap of at least 20 cm between the ventilation grille and the wall.This gap must be kept clear and the ventilation openings uncovered.
3Donotplaceanyobjectsimmediately next to the outer housing of the appliance. There must be a gap of at least 20 mm all round in order to ensure adequate heat discharge.
•Standard EN 378 specifies that the room in which you install your appliance must have a volume of 1 m3 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.
•Do not connect the appliance to the supply with other equipment using an extension cable - risk of overheating.

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.

Connecting to the mains
Power supply (a.c.) and voltage at the operating point must comply with the details on the type plate. The socket must be fused with a 10 A fuse or higher, it must be away from the rear of the appliance and must be easily accessible.
Connect the appliance with a properly earthed fused plug and socket only.
Switching the appliance on and off
You are recommended to clean the appliance before switching it on for the first time (see "Cleaning").
To switch the appliance on:
Connect the appliance to the mains - the appliance is switched on. - The green ON lamp 1comes
on.
- The red alarm lamp 2comes
on. The red alarm lamp goes
out as soon as the freezer compartment is cold enough.
To switch the appliance off: 
Pull out the mains plug or remove/unscrew the fuse.
Setting the temperature
Using a coin, turn the arrow on the temperature control to a setting be- tween 2 und 7.
Setting 2 = lowest cooling setting Setting 7 = highest cooling set- ting, cold
For
stacking marking (see "Freezing"), the temperature control can be set to the "economy" setting. The power consumption will then be kept to a minimum.
Control elements
The red "ALARM" lamp 2
comes on if the temperature in the freezer compartment is not cold enough. If the red alarm lamp comes on during normal operation, check:
- whether there has been a lengthy interruption to the power supply,
- whether the lid is properly shut, - whether fresh food has re-
cently been inserted. 
If none of the above apply, consult your nearest customer service department as soon as possible, giving details of the type of ap- pliance, index and appliance number.
The yellow SUPERFROST lamp 3
lights up when the SUPERFROST facility is switched on for freezing large quantities of fresh food (see Freezing).
