    Congratulations 
    In buying your new freezer, you have  
    chosen a modern and qualitatively, 
    high-grade appliance. 
    Your freezer is characterised by efficient  
    saving of energy. 
    Each appliance which leaves our factory  
    is inspected thoroughly to ensure that 
    it functions properly and is in perfect 
    condition.

    Installation 
    Installation location 
    Install the appliance in a dry, well  
    ventilated room. The installation location 
    should neither be exposed to direct  
    sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g.  
    a cooker, radiator, etc. If installation 
    next to a heat source is unavoidable, 
    use a suitable insulating plate or observe 
    the following minimum distances to  
    a heat source: 
    – 3 cm to an electric cooker.
    – 30 cm to an oil or solid-fuel cooker.
    The floor on which the appliance is to  
    be installed must be rigid. If required, 
    reinforce the floor. To ensure that the ice 
    maker functions correctly, the appliance 
    must be upright.  
    Observe ambient temperature  
    and ventilation 
    The atmosphere grade is written on the  
    identification plate. It states the room 
    temperature within which the appliance  
    can be operated. Ventilation 
    Never cover the ventilation openings  
    in the base panel. The cooling motor  
    otherwise has to increase ist output,  
    and this increases the electricity 
    consumption.Fixing 
    For secure installation, the appliance  
    screwed to neighbouring kitchen 
    furniture and/or units.  
    It is very important therefore that all  
    bordering furniture and/or units are fixed  
    securely to the floor and/or walls.  
    If making structural changes fix the 
    appliance in place again corresponding 
    to the the installation instructions. 
    Installation surface 
    A load-bearing base is necessary  
    because of the heavy weight of the fully 
    laden appliance.  
    The weight of the appliance when fully  
    loaded:  
    – 45.7 cm appliance 250 kg
    – 61.0 cm appliance 350 kg
    – 76.2 cm appliance 425 kg
    In case of doubt, consult an architect  
    or structural engineer. 
    Installing and connecting  
    the appliance 
    Caution
     
     
     
     
     
    After installing the appliance, wait at  
    least ½ hour until the appliance starts 
    up. During transportation the oil in the  
    compressor may have flowed into the  
    refrigeration system. 
    Before switching on the appliance for  
    the first time, clean the interior of the 
    appliance (see “Cleaning the appliance”, 
    page 16).Electrical  
    connection 
    Do not use an extension lead or a multi- 
    plug socket. 
    The plug to secure the appliance must  
    be freely accessible. Connect the  
    appliance to a 220 –
    240 V/50 Hz ac 
    current via a plug which has been  
    properly installed. The socket must be  
    fused with a 10 A fuse or higher. 
    For appliances operated in non- 
    European countries, the identifi-
    cation plate should be checked  
    whether the electric supply and the  
    current model stated match the vales 
    of the mains supply. The rating plate 
    is situated in the bottom left-hand 
    side of the appliance. Any necessary  
    exchanging of the mains lead should  
    carried out by a specialist electrician.  Warning
    Never connect the appliance to  
    electronic energy saver plugs or to 
    power inverters which convert the 
    direct current to 230 V alternating  
    current (e.g. solar equipment,  
    power supplies on ships).
