Important
•
If you have bought this appliance to replace an old one
equipped with a lock that cannot be opened from inside
(lock, bolt), make sure that the lock is broken. This will make
it impossible for children to lock themselves inside the
appliance and suffocate.
•
The appliance must be correctly connected to the mains
supply. (see: Connecting to the Mains Supply).
•
Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the appliance
operates, especially not with wet hands, because the skin
may stick to the cold surfaces.
•
Do not freeze bottles containing liquid, especially not soft
drinks, such as mineral water, sparkling wine, beer, cola
etc., because liquid expands during freezing and the glass
bottle is very likely to blow up.
•
Do not eat frozen food (bread, fruit, vegetables),
because you can get frostbites.
•
If the food has strange smell or color, throw it away, because
it is very likely that it is spoiled and therefore dangerous to
eat.
•
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
repairing it (only a qualified technician should repair it),
before cleaning and before replacing the light bulb.
•
Do not defrost the appliance with other electric devices (hair
dryer etc.) and never scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp
tools. Use only enclosed tools or tools recommended by the
manufacturer.
•
For the sake of environment protection - be careful not to
damage the rear wall of the appliance (the condenser unit or
the tubes - for example when moving the appliance) or any
part of the refrigerating system inside the appliance.
•
The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with
refrigerant and oil, so when the appliance is damaged,
handle it with care and dispose it of in compliance with
environmental protecting precautions. (See We Care for the
Environment).
•
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or his service agent or a qualified person in
order to avoid hazard.
•
The rating plate is inside the appliance or outside on the rear
wall.

Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance
•
When your appliance finally wears out, dispose it of. If the
appliance has a lock, break it, in order to prevent eventual
accidents (danger of children get locked inside the
appliance).
•
The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with
refrigerant and insulating substances which should be
separately treated and processed. Call your nearest
authorised service agent or specialised servicing centre. If
you don't find one, contact your local authorities or your
distributor. Be careful not to damage the tubes on the rear
wall of the appliance (danger of pollution).
Placing and Installation
Choosing the Right Place
Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated room.
Allowed ambient temperature depends on the model (class) of
the appliance and is stated on the rating plate of the appliance.
Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g.
cooker, radiator, water heater or similar devices) and do not
expose it to direct sunlight.
The appliance should be positioned at least 3 cm away from
the electric or gas cooker and at least 30 cm away from the oil
or coal stove. If this is not possible, use an appropriate
insulation.
Behind the appliance there should be free space at least 200
cm² wide and above the appliance the high kitchen units
should be at least 5 cm away from the appliance in order to
assure adequate ventilation of the condenser unit.
Class
Ambient temperature
SN (sub-normal)
from + 10°C to + 32°C
N (normal)
from + 16°C to + 32°C
ST (sub-tropical)
from + 16°C to + 38°C
T (tropical)

Location
•
Place the appliance horizontally and firmly on a solid base.
Level the appliance with two adjustable feet located on the
front of the appliance.
•
The appliance with ventilation grid may be placed close to

supply socket outlet with a ground terminal (safety socket).
Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the
rating plate. The connection to the mains supply and earthing
have to be made according to current standards and
