The coolant used is eco-friendly but also flammable. Any leaking coolant may ignite.
Do not damage the piping of the refrigeration circuit.

WARNING

Fire hazard and danger of damage!

• Do not place appliances emitting heat e.g. microwaves, toasters etc. on the appliance!

WARNING

Blocked ventilation openings pose a risk of fire and damage!
Always keep the ventilation openings clear. Always ensure that the appliance is properly ventilated!

NOTICE

Risk of damage due to condensate!
- Do not install the appliance directly alongside a further refrigerator/freezer.

Note

If you have several appliances next to one another, leave a gap of 70mm between appliances. Otherwise condensation will build up between the units.

Fig. 9

Before you connect the appliance, report any damage immediately to the delivery company.
The floor of the installation site must be horizontal and even.
- Do not install the appliance in direct sunlight, next to an oven, radiator or similar.
Install the appliance with the rear panel up against the wall and always use the supplied wall spacers (see below).
Only ever move the appliance when it is empty.
The surface supporting the appliance must be at the same level as the surrounding floor.
Do not install the appliance on your own.
The more coolant there is in the appliance, the larger the room in which the appliance is installed must be. If the room is too small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of gas and air. For each 8g of coolant the installation space must be at least 1m^3 . Information on the coolant is on the model plate inside the appliance.
Remove the protective film from the outside of the appliance.*

NOTICE

Risk of damage from stainless steel care products!

The stainless steel doors and stainless steel side panels are treated with a premium surface finish.

Stainless steel care products attack these surfaces.
