Safety and warning information

Before you switch ON the appliance

Please read the operating and installation 
instructions carefully! They contain important 
information on how to install, use and 
maintain the appliance.

The manufacturer is not liable if you fail to 
comply with the instructions and warnings. 
Retain all documents for subsequent use or 
for the next owner.

Technical safety

The appliance contains a small quantity of 
environmentally friendly but flammable 
refrigerant R600a. Ensure that the tubing of 
the refrigerant circuit is not damaged during 
transportation and installation. Leaking 
refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite.

If damage has occurred

Keep naked flames and/or ignition 
sources away from the appliance,

thoroughly ventilate the room for several 
minutes,

switch off the appliance and pull out the 
mains plug,

inform customer service.

The more refrigerant an appliance contains, 
the larger the room must be in which the 
appliance is situated. Leaking refrigerant can 
form a flammable gas-air mixture in rooms 
which are too small. 
The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g 
of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in 
your appliance is indicated on the rating 
plate inside the appliance.

If the power cord of this appliance is 
damaged, it must be replaced by the 
manufacturer, customer service or a similarly 
qualified person. Improper installations 
and repairs may put the user at considerable 
risk.

Repairs may be performed by the 
manufacturer, customer service or a similarly 
qualified person only.

Only original parts supplied by the 
manufacturer may be used. The manufacturer 
guarantees that only these parts satisfy the 
safety requirements.

A extension cable may be purchased from 
customer service only.

Important information when using 
the appliance

Never use electrical appliances inside 
the appliance (e.g. heater, electric ice 
maker, etc.). Explosion hazard!

Never defrost or clean the appliance with 
a steam cleaner! The  steam may 
penetrate electrical parts and  cause 
a short-circuit. Risk of electric shock!

Do not use pointed or sharp-edged 
implements to remove frost or layers of 
ice. You could damage the refrigerant 
tubes. Leaking refrigerant may cause eye 
injuries or ignite. 

Do not store products which contain 
flammable propellants (e.g. spray cans) 
or explosive substances in the appliance. 
Explosion hazard!

Do not stand on or lean heavily against 
base of appliance, drawers or doors, etc

For defrosting and cleaning, pull the 
mains plug out or switch off the fuse. Do 
not pull out the mains plug by tugging 
on the power cord.

Store high-percentage alcohol tightly 
closed and standing up.

Keep plastic parts and the door seal free 
of oil and grease. Otherwise, parts and 
 door seal will become porous.

openings of the appliance!

Avoiding placing children and 
vulnerable people at risk:

At risk are children, people who have 
limited physical, mental or sensory 
abilities, as well as people who have
