Caution
If your new appliance has been bought as a
replacement for an older model, please make the
old appliance unusable at once: pull the plug out of
the socket, cut the connecting lead off, and dispose
of the plug together with the remaining lead in an
environmentally friendly manner.
Any catch or lock on your old appliance should also
be made unusable before you put the appliance
away or hand it over to be disposed of in an
environmentally friendly manner. In this way you can
prevent children locking themselves in when playing
and thus endangering their lives.
Please make sure that the pipelines of your refriger-
ator are not damaged before collection for environ-
mentally appropriate disposal.
Information on the packaging of
the appliance
All materials used are environmentally compatible.
They can be safely thrown away on a rubbish dump
or burnt in a refuse incinerator.
Concerning the materials: the plastics can also be
re-used and are labelled as follows:
>PE< for polyethylene (polythene), e.g. for the outer
foil and for the bags inside
>PS< for polystyrol foam, e.g. for the padding,
manufactured entirely without chlorofluoro-
carbons (CFC).
The cardboard parts are manufactured from recy-
cled paper and should be returned for collection as
scrap paper.
General tips
You have just purchased a freezer which has been
produced according to the standards applicable to
these appliances. During manufacture, the neces-
sary measures have been taken as required by the
Appliance Safety Act, the Accident Prevention
Regulations for Refrigerating Installations (VBG 20),
and the Requirements of the Association of German
Electrical Engineers (VDE).
The refrigeration circuit has been checked for
leakage.
This appliance complies with the following EC
Directives:
- 73/23/EEC of 19.02.1973 - Low-Voltage Directive
14
- 89/336/EEC of 03.05.1989 (including Amendment
Directive 92/31/EEC) - EMC (Electromagnetic
Compatibily) Directive.
Before starting up, we recommend you to read the
following instructions for use, since only by doing so
can you benefit from all the advantages offered by
your freezer.
These instructions for use are intended for several
technically comparable models with different equip-
ment. Please only take note of the instructions that
apply to your particular version. Please fold out the
pages with the illustrations, so that you can see
pictures and text both at once.
Removing the adhesive tapes
For transport purposes, the door is secured with
adhesive tapes on the housing. Remove any
possible adhesive tape residues with a cleaner or
petrol.
Commercial use
Should you use your home freezer commercially or for
purposes other than refrigeration, freezing, and deep
frozen storage of food and drinks, you must observe
the legal requirements applicable to your area.
Choice of location
If possible, your freezer should be installed in a dry,
well-ventilated room.
Its installation in a damp room or the occurrence of
weather-dependent high air humidity may tempo-
rarily lead to precipitation of moisture (dew forma-
tion) on the outside of the freezer compartment.
Ambient temperature has an effect on the power
consumption of the unit. The appliance should
therefore:
– not stand in the direct sunshine, or close to a radia-
tor or cooker
– stand in a position where the ambient temperature
corresponds with the climate category for which
the appliance is designed.
You will find data on this on the rating plate, which is
in the interior of the appliance on the left hand side.
It will consist of one of the following:
Climate category
SN
N
ST
T
Ambient temperature
from ... to ...
+ 10 to + 32 C
+ 16 to + 32 C
+ 18 to + 38 C
+ 18 to + 43 C
