plasma, laboratory preparations or similar
substances and products covered by the
2007/47/EC Medical Devices Directive. Misuse
of the appliance can result in the stored prod-
ucts suffering harm or perishing. Furthermore,
the appliance is not suitable for operation in
potentially explosive atmospheres.
The appliance is set to operate within specific
ambient temperature limits according to its
climate rating. The correct climate rating for
your appliance is indicated on the type plate.
2 General safety information
Danger for the user:

edge, if they are supervised or have been
instructed on safe use of the appliance and
understand the resulting risks. Children must
not be allowed to play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance must not be
carried out by children without supervision.
-
When disconnecting the appliance from the
supply, always take hold of the plug. Do not
pull the cable.
Note
Compliance with the ambient temperatures
indicated is required, otherwise the cooling
performance is reduced.

-
Only install, connect and dispose of the appli-
ance according to the instructions.
1.3 Conformity
The refrigerant circuit is tested for leakage. When built-in the
appliance complies with the relevant safety regulations and EC
Directives 2006/95/EC, 2004/108/EC, 2009/125/EC and
2010/30/EU.
-
-
Only use the appliance when it is installed.
Please keep these instructions in a safe place
and pass them on to any subsequent owners.
Special-purpose lamps (incandescent lamps,
LEDs, fluorescent tubes) in the appliance
serve to illuminate the appliance interior and
are not suited for room illumination.
-
Note for test institutions:
Tests are to be carried out according to the applicable
standards and guidelines.
Preparation and testing of the appliances must be carried
out taking the manufacturer's loading plans and the
notes in the operating manual into account.
Fire hazard:
-
The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally
friendly but flammable. Escaping refrigerant
may ignite.
1.4 Saving energy
Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation
-
openings or grille.

•
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.
Do not allow naked flames or ignition
sources to enter the appliance.
Always keep fan louvres clear.*

-
Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
stove, heater or similar object.
•
Do not use any electrical appliances in the
interior (e.g. steam cleaners, heaters, ice
cream maker etc.).

Store food logically. (see Appliance at a glance).
-
-
Ensure that all food is well packed and covered for storage.
This will prevent frost from forming.
Remove food as needed in order that it does not warm too
much.
-
-
Do not store explosives or sprays using
combustible propellants such as butane,
propane, pentane, etc. in the appliance. To
identify these spray cans, look for the list of
contents printed on the can, or a flame
symbol. Gases possibly escaping may ignite
due to electrical components.
First cool warm food to room temperature before storing it .

5.2.4 Fan*
With the fan you can rapidly cool large quantities of
fresh food or achieve a relatively even distribution of
temperature across all the storage levels.
Always store liquids and food which is subject to odour or
taste transfer in closed containers or cover them.
Foods which give off a large amount of ethylene gas and
delicate foods, such as fruit, vegetables, salad, should
always be stored separately or wrapped so as not to reduce
the storage life; e.g. do not store tomatoes together with
kiwis or cabbage.
The forced-air cooling is to be recommended:
for appliances from 1218 mm in height, the following applies:
at high room temperature (above33 °C )
at high humidity
-
-
Use the front area of the refrigerator compartment floor only
for briefly putting down cooled products, e.g. when rear-
ranging and sorting. However do not leave cooled products
there otherwise they may be pushed back or tipped over
when the door is closed.
u
The forced-air cooling uses slightly more energy. To save
energy, the fan switches off automatically when the door is
open.

You can store frozen food for several months, make ice cubes
and freeze fresh food in the freezer compartment at a tempera-

6.1 Defrosting
6.1.1 Defrosting refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is defrosted automatically. The
water evaporates. Drops of water on the rear wall are function-
ally conditioned and perfectly normal.
The air temperature in the compartment, measured by ther-
mometer or other instruments, may fluctuate.
Clean the drain hole at regular intervals to allow the defrost
u
5.3.1 Freezing food*
2 kg fresh food/24 h is the maximum weight which can be
frozen.
6.1.2 Defrosting freezer compartment*
A layer of frost and ice forms in the freezer compartment after
the appliance has been in use for a lengthy period of time. This
is quite normal. The layer of frost and ice forms more quickly if
the door is opened frequently or if the food is warm when
placed inside. However, a thick layer of ice will increase the
appliance‘s energy consumption. You should therefore defrost
the appliance regularly.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to broken glass!
Bottles and cans containing drinks may burst when being
frozen. This applies particularly to sparkling drinks.
Do not freeze bottles and cans containing drinks!
u
4 h before freezing food, set the temperature to 5 °C or
colder.

are no longer needed must be disposed of in a
professional and appropriate way, in accordance
with the current local regulations and laws.

The ambient temperature is too high.
The appliance was opened too frequently or for too long.
Wait to see whether the appliance reaches the required
temperature by itself. If not, please contact the after sales
service (see Maintenance).
When disposing of the appliance, ensure that the refrigeration
circuit is not damaged to prevent uncontrolled escape of the
refrigerant it contains (data on type plate) and oil.
