Disposal

Information about the appliance packaging

Dispose of your appliance packaging properly. None of the packaging materials used are harmful to the environment and they may be re-used.

About the materials: the plastics may also be recycled and are identified as follows:

PE< for polyethylene e.g. in the outer casing and internal pockets.

PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. in padding. Essentially CFC-free.

The cardboard used is made from recycled paper and should also be put out for old paper collection.

Disposal of old appliances

Refrigeration equipment must be properly disposed of in a way which protects the environment. This applies to your old appliance and to your new unit once it has reached the end of its service life.

Warning: Please ensure that old, worn appliances are rendered unusable before disposal by removing the plug, cutting the network cable, and removing or destroying any snap fastenings or bolts. You will thus prevent children from locking themselves in the appliance during play (risk of suffocation) or endangering their lives in any other way.

Disposal instructions:

. The appliance must not be disposed of in the dustbin or with normal household rubbish.
. The coolant circuit, particularly the heat exchanger at the back of the appliance, must not be damaged.
. The X symbol on the product or its packaging indicates that this product is not to be handled as normal household waste but is to be taken to a recycling collection point for electrical and electronic goods. By correctly disposing of this product you are contributing to the protection of the environment and to the health of your fellow human beings. Improper disposal endangers health and the environment. Further information about the recycling of this product may be obtained from your town hall, refuse collection department or the store where you purchased the product.

Installation

Installation site

The appliance should be positioned in a well-ventilated, dry room. The ambient temperature will influence energy consumption and the proper functioning of the unit. For this reason, the appliance

. Should not stand in direct sunlight;
. Should not stand near a radiator, a stove or any other heat source;
. Should be located only where the ambient temperature is compatible with the climatic classification of the appliance.

You will find the climatic classification on the nameplate inside the appliance on the top right-hand side.

The following table specifies the ambient temperature range for each climatic classification:

Climatic classification	for an ambient temperature of
SN	+10 to +32°C
N	+16 to +32°C
ST	+18 to +38°C
T	+18 to +43°C

To prevent the appliance from heating up, ensure that an adequate ventilation gap is retained and install a suitable thermal insulation panel. An adequate flow of air to and from the cooling system must be ensured.

The cooler needs air

The cooler door seals the installed unit almost completely, so an air vent must be provided in the base of the housing. Warmed air must be conducted via the ventilation shaft to the rear wall of the housing and then expelled upwards. The ventilation channels should measure at least 200~cm^2 in cross-section.

Warning! To ensure the proper functioning of the appliance, air vents should never be blocked or covered.

Installation

Scale drawing

After installing the unit, and particularly if the door hinge is reversed, please ensure that the door seal is tight all round. An imperfect door seal can lead to increased condensation and thus to higher energy consumption (see the section headed "Troubleshooting").

Electrical connection

A properly installed socket outlet with earthing contact is required for electrical connection, positioned so that it is possible to pull out the mains plug.

The socket outlet with earthing contact used to connect the appliance should be positioned on the left or right-hand side adjacent to the housing.

Electrical fuse protection of at least 10/16 amperes must be provided. If the socket is no longer accessible once the appliance has been built-in, suitable measures must be taken during electrical installation to ensure that the appliance can be disconnected from the mains (fuse, LP [line protection] contact opening width of at least 3mm ).

Before operating the appliance, check the data plate to ensure compliance of the connection voltage and type of frequency with the mains network values at the installation site.

e.g. AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or

220…240V~ 50 Hz

(i.e. 220 to 240 volt alternating current, 50 Hertz)

The dataplate is located inside the appliance on the top right-hand side.

Defrosting

The cooler defrosts automatically.

The evaporator behind the rear wall of the cooler defrosts automatically. The condensate collects in the drainage channel behind the rear wall of the cooler, and flows through the drainage hole into the drip tray by the compressor where it evaporates.

Cleaning and maintenance

For reasons of hygiene, the interior of the appliance, including all internal fitments, should be cleaned regularly.

Warning! Because of the risk of electric shock, the appliance should not be connected to the mains during cleaning. Before cleaning, switch off the appliance, pull out the mains plug or deactivate and/or remove the fuse.

Never steam-clean the appliance. Dampness may penetrate the electrical components, creating the risk of an electric shock. Hot steam may damage the plastic components. The appliance must be dry before it is used again.

Caution! Plastic components may be attacked by essential oils and organic solvents such as fruit juices and the acids in butter, as well as by detergents containing vinegar. Such substances should not come into contact with appliance components. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.

Energy-saving tips

. Ensure that the appliance is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
. Do not install the unit near radiators, radiator pipes or smoke extractors and protect it as far as possible from direct sunlight
. Make sure the unit doors are kept open for as short a time as possible. The quik- ker the doors are closed again, the less cold is lost.
. Make sure that the doors are closed fully and correctly. The door seal must be flush against the frame of the fridge.

Operating Noises

Noises which are entirely normal

The chill cabinet is cooled by a compressor (refrigeration aggregate). The compressor pumps coolant through the cooling system, producing operating noises. Even when the compressor cuts out, noises caused by changes in temperature and pressure are unavoidable.

This cooler is fitted with a quiet compressor and a low-noise cooling circuit designed in line with the latest technical developments. However, a certain level of noise, dependent on the size of the cooler, is inevitable. Operating noise will be most audible immediately after the compressor cuts in. It becomes quieter as the operating period continues.

Noises which are not normal

Unusual noise is normally the result of improper installation. The cooler must be installed or built-in so that it is level and stable. Under no circumstances must tubing come into contact with a wall, other furniture or with another tubing.

Where coolers are installed in open-plan kitchens or in partition walls, the level of operating noise will be heard more acutely. However, this is due to the surrounding architecture and not to a fault with the cooler.

Description	Cause	Comment
Droning	Cooling system	Normal operating noise of the cooling system. The level is dependent on the size of cooler.
Humming	Fan	Normal operating noise of the fan.
Gurgling	Cooling circuit	Normal operating noise as coolant flows through the circuit.
Babbling
Murmuring
Hissing	Cooling circuit	Normal operating noise as coolant is injected into the condenser.
Cracking	Cooler housing	Normal as materials expand and contract due to temperature variations (e.g. plastics, insulation).
