Risks when dealing with fridge
and freezer appliances
Fire hazard!
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.
In order to guarantee suffi cient air
■
circulation, do not close the ventila-
tion openings in the appliance hous-
ing.
Do not place the appliance directly
■
against the wall. Observe the min-
imum spacing intervals (see „Safe-
ty"on page GB-5).
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 refrigeration 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 circuit,
the installation space must have a
minimum size of 1 m
frigerant in compliance with the EN
378 standard. The amount of refrig-
erant contained in your appliance
can be found in the data sheet at the
end of this user manual.
Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury.
The appliance is heavy and bulky. Ask
■
another person to help with moving
and installation.
Check that entry route and instal-
■
lation location are free of obstacles
(e.g. closed doors or objects lying on
the fl oor).
Bases, drawers, doors, etc. must not
■
be used as steps or for support pur-
poses.
Do not place heavy objects on the ap-
■
pliance, as they could fall down and
cause injuries.
Lay the mains cord so that it does not
■
pose a tripping hazard.
To avoid a hazard due to instability of
■
the appliance, it must be fi xed in ac-
cordance with the instructions.
Health hazard!
Contaminated foods can cause health
problems.
Opening the door for long periods can
■
cause a signifi cant increase of the
temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
Clean regularly surfaces that can
■
come in contact with food and acces-
sible drainage systems.
