There is a risk of an explosion! Do not store any containers with flamma-
ble materials such as, for example, spray cans, fire extinguisher refill car-
tridges etc in the refrigerator/freezer.
• Bottles and cans must not be placed in the freezer compartment. They can
burst when the contents freeze, high carbonate content drinks can even
explode! Never store lemonade, juices, beer, wine, sparkling wine etc. in
the freezer compartment.
• Ice cream or ice cubes can cause “frost/freezer” burns if consumed strai-
ght from the freezer.
• Do not touch frozen food with wet hands. Your hands could freeze to the
food.
• Do not operate any electrical appliances in the refrigerator/freezer (e.g.
electric ice cream makers, mixers etc.).
• Before cleaning the appliance, always switch off the appliance and
disconnect from the electricity supply.
• When unplugging always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not pull
on the cable.

Disposal
Appliance Packaging Information
All materials are environmentally sound.
The plastics can be recycled and are identified as follows:
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. the outer covering and the bags in the interior.
>PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. the pads, which are all free of chlorofluo-
rocarbon.
The carton parts are made from recycled paper and should be disposed of
at a waste-paper recycling collection location.
Disposal of old Appliances
For environmental reasons, refrigeration appliances must be disposed of
properly. This applies to your old appliance, and - at the end of its service
life - to your new appliance as well.

Installation Location
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use is affected by the ambient temperature. The appliance should
therefore
– not be exposed to direct sunlight;
– not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
– only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corresponds to
the climate classification, for which the appliance is designed.
The climate classification can be found on the rating plate, which is locat-
ed at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each
climate classification:
Climate classification for an ambient temperature of
SN +10 to +32 °C
N +16 to +32 °C
Your appliance needs air
Air flows in from under the door,
at the front, and flows out
upwards, over the back. For cor-
rect air circulation, it is important
that the ventilation openings are
not covered or obstructed.
Important: If the appliance is
positioned under a kitchen wall
unit, a minimum clearance of 10
cm must be left between the top
of the appliance and the over-
hanging wall unit.
