WARNING
Risk of fi re and explosion!
Your appliance’s refrigeration circuit
contains the environmentally-friend-
ly, but fl ammable refrigerant R600a
(isobutane).
■
Keep the appliance away from open
fl ames and hot surfaces.
Dangers from the refrigerant!
■
Do not damage the refrigerant cir-
cuit, for example by piercing the re-
frigerant channels of the condensate
vaporiser with sharp objects, bending
the tubing, etc.
■
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.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
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 inside the appliance.
■
Always ensure the prescribed ambi-
ent temperature is maintained (see
“Intended use” on page EN-4).
– To prevent the formation of a flammable
gas-air mixture in the event of a leakage
in the refrigeration circuit, the installation
space must have a minimum size of 4.5 m³.
– The appliance must only be placed on a
level and firm surface. The surface must be
strong enough to support the appliance’s
weight when fully laden.
– 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.
– The following minimum distances must be
maintained:
– to electric stoves
20 cm
– to oil and coal burning stoves 100 cm
– to other refrigeration applianc-
es
20 cm
– to washing machines/
dishwashers
20 cm
– If you would like to reduce these distances,
you can fit an insulation plate between the
appliances.
– If underfloor heating is installed at the set-
up location, place the cooling appliance on
an insulation plate made from solid mate-
rial.
