Choosing a suitable location
CAUTION
Health hazard!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. This
can then lead to an increase in temper-
ature in the fridge and freezer.
■
Always ensure the prescribed am-
bient temperature is maintained
(see "Intended use" on page EN-4).
Dangers from the refrigerant!
■
Do not damage the refrigeration cir-
cuit, for example by piercing the re-
frigerant channels of the condensate
vaporiser with sharp objects, cutting
off the tubing, etc.
■
To prevent a fl ammable gas-air mix-
ture from forming following a leak-
age in the refrigeration circuit, the
installation space must have a min-
imum size of 1 m
3
per 8 g of refrig-
erant in compliance with the EN 378
standard. The amount of refrigerant
contained in your appliance can be
found on the data sheet (see "Techni-
cal specifi cations" on page EN-31).
■
Refrigerant is fl ammable when spurt-
ing out and can damage the eyes. In
this case, rinse your eyes in clean wa-
ter and seek medical assistance im-
mediately.
• Choose a suitable position with a mini-
mum capacity of: 11.2 m
3
• Place the appliance on as flat and as firm
a base as possible. Adhere to the pre-
scribed
minimum distances
(see next
page).
• Make sure that the ambient temperatures
match the climate category of the appli-
ance (see "Intended use" on page EN-4).
– Suitable locations are dry, well-ventilated
areas that are cool if possible.
– Unsuitable locations are ones with direct
sunlight or which are directly next to an
oven, hob or radiator.
About climate categories
• Always ensure the prescribed ambient temperature is maintained (see "Intended use" on
page EN-4).
Climate category means that the appliance is intended for operation at the specified ambient
temperature.
