•If refrigerant escapes: eliminate naked flames or sources
of ignition from the vicinity. Pull out the power plug. Venti-
late the area well. Notify customer service.
-Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propel-
lants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the appli-
ance. Respective spray cans can be identified by reference
to the contents printed on the can or by a flame symbol.
Gases possibly escaping may ignite due to electrical
components.
-Keep burning candles, lamps and other items with naked
flames away from the appliance so that they do not set the
appliance on fire.
-Only store high-percentage alcohol in tightly sealed, upright
containers. Alcohol possibly escaping may ignite due to
electrical components.
Danger of tipping and falling:
-Do not misuse the plinth, drawers, doors etc. as a step or for
support. This applies particularly to children.
Danger of food poisoning:
-Do not consume food which has been stored too long.
Danger of frostbite, numbness and pain:
-Avoid lasting skin contact with cold surfaces or refrigerated/
frozen food or take protective steps, e.g. wear gloves. Do
not consume ice cream, water ice or ice cubes immediately
and do not consume them too cold.

4.1 Transporting the appliance

CAUTION
Risk of injury and danger of damage as a result of incorrect
transport!
uTransport the appliance in a packed condition.
uTransport the appliance upright.
uDo not transport the appliance without assistance.

4.2 Installing the appliance

In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the supplier
immediately before connecting to the mains.
The floor at the site must be flat and level.
Do not install the appliance in a location where it is exposed to
direct radiation of the sun, next to a cooker, heater and similar.
The ideal installation site is a dry, well ventilated room.
Always install the appliance with the back directly against the
wall.
Do not install the appliance without assistance.
Standard EN 378 specifies that the room in which you install
your appliance must have a volume of 1 m2 per 8 g of R 600a
refrigerant used in the appliance. If the room in which the appli-
ance is installed is too small, a flammable gas-air mixture may
form in the event of a leakage in the refrigeration circuit. The
quantity of refrigerant used in your appliance is indicated on the
type plate on the inside of the appliance.
The appliance may be moved only when it is empty.
WARNING
Fire hazard due to dampness!
If live parts or the mains lead become damp this may cause
short circuits.
uThe appliance is designed for use in enclosed areas. Do not
operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is
exposed to splash water or damp conditions.
WARNING
Fire hazard due to refrigerant!
The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flam-
mable. Escaping refrigerant may ignite.
