Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to fi re and property damage.
■
Only connect the appliance to a prop-
erly installed and earthed electric
socket.
■
Do not connect to a multi-socket ex-
tension cable or a multi-socket plug.

Dangers from the refrigerant!
Your appliance’s refrigeration circuit
contains the environmentally friend-
ly, but fl ammable refrigerant R600a
(isobutane).
■
Mechanical intervention in the refrig-
eration system must only be carried
out by authorised specialists.
■
Do not damage the refrigerant cir-
cuit, for example, by piercing the re-
frigerant channels of the condensate
evaporator with sharp objects, bend-
ing the piping, cutting open the insu-
lation, 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.
■
To prevent the formation of a fl am-
mable gas-air mixture in the event
of a leakage in the refrigeration cir-
cuit, the installation space must have
a minimum size of 1 m
3
per 8 g of
refrigerant in compliance with the
EN 378 standard. The amount of re-
frigerant contained in your appliance
can be found in the data sheet at the
end of this user manual.

be used as steps or for support pur-
poses.
■
Do not place heavy objects on the ap-
pliance, as they could fall down and

Lay the mains cord so that it does not
pose a tripping hazard.
Health hazard!
Contaminated foods can cause health
problems.
■
Opening the door for long periods can
