Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
■
Do not operate or continue to oper-
ate the appliance, if it
–
shows visible signs of damage, e.g.
the power cord is defective,
–
starts smoking or there is a smell of
burning,
–
makes unfamiliar noises.
In such cases, remove the mains plug
from the socket or unscrew/isolate the
fuse and contact our service depart-
ment (see on page EN-32).
■
Do not connect to a timer or a sepa-
rate remote-controlled system for dis-
tance monitoring and control.
■
If the mains plug is no longer acces-
sible after installation, an all-pole dis-
connecting device complying with
overvoltage category III must be
connected to the house wiring with a
contact gap of at least 3 mm;
consult
a qualifi ed professional if necessary
(see "Service" on page EN-XX).
■
Do not kink or pinch the mains cable
or lay it over sharp edges. This can re-
sult in a break in the cable.

Improper handling of the appliance can
lead to fi re and damage to property.

NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the cooling unit has been transport-
ed horizontally, lubricant from the com-
pressor may get into the cooling circuit.
■
Allow the appliance to stand upright
for approx. 2 hours after transport
and before connecting. This allows
the lubricant enough time to fl ow
back into the compressor.
• Insert the mains plug into an easily acces-
sible socket (220–240 V~ / 50 Hz).
When the fridge compartment is open, the
interior lighting (1) is now switched on.
You will find all important information
