Disposal notes
The packaging is made of recyclable materials.
-Corrugated board/board
-EPS moulded parts
-Polythene sheets
-Polypropylene straps
•Keep packaging materials away from children - poly- thene sheets and bags can cause suffocation!
•Please return the packaging to an official collection point.
Your old appliance: This contains some reusable ma- terials and should be disposed of properly - not simply with unsorted household refuse.
• Discarded appliances should be disabled: Remove the plug, cut through the connection cable and render
the catch unusable so that children cannot become trapped inside.
• Ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged when the ap- pliance that is no longer needed is taken away for disposal.
• Details of the refrigerant can be found on the type plate.
• Appliances which are no longer needed must be disposed of in a professional and appropriate way, in accordance with the current local regulations and laws.
Technical safety
W To prevent injury or damage to the unit, the appliance should only be transported wrapped and set up by two people.
W The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flamma- ble.
W Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes. Splashes of refrigerant can harm your eyes or ignite.
W If refrigerant escapes, remove all naked flames or sources of ignition in the vicinity of the leak, disconnect the appliance from the mains and ventilate the area well.
W In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the sup- plier immediately before connecting to the mains.
W To guarantee safe operation, ensure that the appliance is set up and connected as described in these operating instructions.
W Disconnect the appliance from the mains if any fault occurs. Pull out the plug (not by pulling on the mains cable) or switch off or remove the fuse.
W Any repairs and work on the appliance should only be
carried out by the customer service department, as unauthorised work could prove highly dangerous for the user. The same applies to changing the mains power cable.
Safety during use
W Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible pro- pellants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the ap- pliance. Electrical components might cause leak-ing gas to ignite. You can identify such sprays by the printed contents or a flame symbol.
W Only store high-percentage alcohol in tightly sealed, upright containers.
W Do not allow naked flames or ignition sources to enter the ap- pliance.
W Do not use electrical appliances inside the appliance (e.g. steam cleaners, heaters, ice makers, etc.).
W Do not stand on the plinth, drawers or doors or use them to support anything else.
W This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given initial supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
W Avoid prolonged skin contact with cold surfaces or chilled/ frozen food. This could cause pain, numbness and frostbite. In the case of prolonged skin contact, protective measures should be taken, e.g. gloves should be worn.
W Do not eat ice-cream, particularly ice lollies or ice-cubes, immedi- ately after taking them from the freezer compartment as there is a
risk of "burning" because of the very cold temperatures.
W Do not consume food which has been stored for too long, as it could cause food poisoning.
Setting up
W When setting up/fitting ensure that the refrigerant circuit pipes are not damaged.
W 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 appli- ance 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.
W Avoid positioning in direct sunlight or next to an oven, radiator or similar, in damp locations or near spraying water.
W Always position the appliance directly up against the wall.
W Once in position, use the 10 spanner provided to adjust the feet so that the appliance is level and does not wobble.
W The ventilation grilles should not be obstructed.
Always ensure that there is good ventilation and that the outward flowing air is able to escape.
W Condensation may form on the outside of the refrigera- tor/freezer during periods of high humidity.Constant ventilation of the installation site is recommend.
More information can be found in the installation and modification instructions.
W Do not place heat-emitting appliances, e.g. microwave oven, toaster, etc., on top of the refrigerator or freezer.
W Remove all transportation safety components.
- Remove sticky tape or spacers* from shelves and insert shelves in the required position.
- Remove all protective film: from the decorative trims, front walls and side walls*.
Connecting to the mains
Power supply (AC) and voltage
at the operating point must comply with the details on the type plate, which is located inside the appliance on the left, fig. A. W Connect the appliance with a properly earthed fused
plug and socket only.
W 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 ac- cessible.
W Do not
- connect to stand-alone inverters,
- operate with so-called energy-saving plugs - this can dam-age the electronic system,
- connect to the supply with other equipment using an extension cable - risk of overheating.
W When removing the mains cable from the back of the appli- ance, remove the cable holder so as to avoid vibration noise.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: green/yellow = earth, blue = neutral, brown = live.
Warning! This appliance must be earthed.
Non-rewireable plugs BS 1363
If this machine or appliance is fitted with a non-rewireable plug, the following information applies: If the socket outlets are not suitable for the plug supplied with this product, it must be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. The plug cut from the flexible cord should be disposed of and on no account be inserted into a 13 A socket elsewhere in the house (electric shock hazard).
The fuse cover must be re-fitted when changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. The colour of the correct replacement cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug, or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug (as ap- plicable to the design of the plug fitted). The correct rating of the replacement fuses that are ASTA approved to BS 1362 should be fitted. Replacement fuse covers may be purchased from your lo- cal electrical suppliers, electricity showroom or approved service agent.
