Dear Customer,
Before using the appliance, please read the following
instructions carefully and keep this manual for future reference.
The appliance must only be used by persons familiar with these
instructions.
Transporting the appliance
∙ To prevent damage to the unit during transport, ensure that
all accessories and components inside and around the
appliance are securely fastened.
∙ The unit must only be transported in its vertical position; do
not tilt any more than 30°. For positioning, we recommend
that you tilt the unit slightly backwards. In this way, the
transport rollers can be used to move it to its intended place
of installation.
∙ Once the unit has been positioned, wait for about 30
minutes before it is connected to the mains.
∙ If the unit has been tilted more than 30° during transport,
allow it to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours
before it is connected to the mains.
Connection to the mains supply

socket installed in accordance with the regulations. Make
sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage
marked on the rating label.
∙ This product complies with all binding CE labelling
directives.
∙ Do not operate this unit by means of a transformer.
∙ To prevent noise vibration, ensure that the power cord does
not touch any part of the rear of the unit.
Intended use

for deep-freezing and long-term storage
of deep-frozen food, as well as for making
ice-cubes.

not advised.

results from improper use, or if these
instructions are not complied with.

commercial use, nor for use in the catering
business or similar wholesale environments.
Important safety instructions
∙ The cooling circuit
in this appliance
contains the refrigerant
isobutane (R600a), a
natural gas with a high
level of environmental
compatibility, which is nevertheless
fl ammable. Ensure, therefore, that none
of the components of the refrigerant circuit
become damaged during transportation and
installation of the appliance. If damage to the
cooling circuit does occur, do not switch on
or connect the appliance to the mains power.
In the case that there is an open fi re or any
other sources of ignition in the vicinity of
the refrigerant gas, make sure it is removed
immediately from this area and that the room
is then thoroughly ventilated.
∙ Warning: Keep ventilation openings, in
the appliance enclosure or in the built-in
structure, clear of obstruction. Suf fi cient
ventilation must be ensured at all times.
∙ Warning: Do not damage the cooling
circuit. Any escaping refrigerant causes
damage to the eyes; there is also a danger
of the gas igniting.
∙ Warning: Do n ot use any external device
(e.g.; heaters or heating fans) to accelerate
de-frosting; follow only the methods
recommended in this manual.
∙ Warning: Do not operate any electrical
appliances (e.g. ice makers) inside the
storage compartment that are not speci fi cally
permitted in these instructions.
