Commissioning the appliance
WARNING
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,
for example, the connection cable
is defective,
–
it starts smoking or there is a smell
of burning,
–
it 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 “Service” on page EN-28).
■
Never 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; this in-
cludes fuses, circuit breakers and con-
tactors.
■
Do not kink or pinch the mains cable
or lay it over sharp edges. This can re-
sult in a break in the cable.
■
When installing the appliance, en-
sure that the mains cable does not
become pinched or damaged.
■
Do not put portable multi sockets or
mains adapters at the rear of the ap-
pliance.
CAUTION
Fire hazard!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to fi re and property damage.
■
Only connect the appliance to a
properly installed and earthed elec-
tric socket. Do not connect to a mul-
ti-socket extension cable or a mul-
ti-socket plug.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the refrigerating appliance has been
transported horizontally, lubricant from
the compressor may make its way 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 and properly installed socket (220-
240 V~ / 50 Hz).
The compressor starts to work, the refrig-
erant flows through the pipes and a quiet
humming sound can be heard.
You will find all important information
about operation from page EN-12.
