2 Safety and warning information

Before you switch ON the appliance

Please read the operating and installation instructions carefully! They contain important information on how to install, use and maintain the appliance.

The manufacturer is not liable if you fail to comply with the instructions and warnings.

Retain all documents for subsequent use or for the next owner.

Technical safety

The appliance contains a small quantity of environmentally friendly but flammable refrigerant R600a. Ensure that the tubing of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged during transportation and installation. Leaking refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite.

If damage has occurred

ʋ ʋ ʋ

Keep naked flames and/or ignition sources away from the appliance, thoroughly ventilate the room for several minutes, switch off the appliance and pull out the mains plug, inform customer service.

The more refrigerant an appliance contains, the larger the room must be in which the appliance is situated. Leaking refrigerant can form a flammable gas-air mixture in rooms which are too small.

The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in your appliance is indicated on the rating plate inside the appliance.

If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, customer service or a similarly qualified person. Improper installations and repairs may put the user at considerable risk.

Repairs may be performed by the manufacturer, customer service or a similarly qualified person only.

Only original parts supplied by the manufacturer may be used. The manufacturer guarantees that only these parts satisfy the safety requirements.

A extension cable may be purchased from customer service only.

ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ ʋ

Never use electrical appliances inside the appliance (e.g. heater, electric ice maker, etc.). Explosion hazard!

Never defrost or clean the appliance with a steam cleaner! The steam may penetrate electrical parts and cause a short-circuit. Risk of electric shock!

Do not use pointed or sharp-edged implements to remove frost or layers of ice. You could damage the refrigerant tubes. Leaking refrigerant may cause eye injuries or ignite.

Do not store products which contain flammable propellants (e.g. spray cans) or explosive substances in the appliance.

Explosion hazard!

Do not stand on or lean heavily against base of appliance, drawers or doors, etc

For defrosting and cleaning, pull the mains plug out or switch off the fuse. Do not pull out the mains plug by tugging on the power cord.

Store high-percentage alcohol tightly closed and standing up.

Keep plastic parts and the door seal free of oil and grease. Otherwise, parts and

door seal will become porous.

Never cover or block the ventilation openings of the appliance!

Avoiding placing children and vulnerable people at risk:

At risk are children, people who have limited physical, mental or sensory abilities, as well as people who have inadequate knowledge concerning safe operation of the appliance.

Information on the energy consumption and noises

Installing the appliance

Have a technician install and connect the appliance according to the enclosed installation instructions.

Transporting

The appliance is heavy. Secure in position during transportation and installation.

Due to the weight/dimensions of the appliance and to minimise the risk of injury and damage to the appliance at least two persons are necessary to set-up the appliance safely.

Installation location

A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as an installation location. The installation location should not be exposed to direct sunlight and not placed 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 from the heat source: ʋ ʋ

3 cm to electric or gas cookers.

30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.

The floor of the installation location must not give way; if required, reinforce floor.

Ambient temperature and ventilation

Ambient temperature

The climate class can be found on the rating plate.

The climate class indicates within which ambient temperatures the appliance can be operated.

Climate class Permitted ambient temperature

+10 °C to 32 °C

+16 °C to 32 °C

+16 °C to 38 °C

+16 °C to 43 °C

Note

The appliance is fully functional within the room temperature limits of the indicated climatic class. If an appliance of climatic class SN is operated at colder room temperatures, the appliance will not be damaged up to a temperature of +5 °C.

Ventilation

Conduction of the heated air must not be obstructed.

Otherwise, the refrigeration unit must work harder. This increases power consumption. Therefore: Never cover or block the ventilation opening!

Connecting the appliance

Have a technician install and connect the appliance according to the enclosed installation instructions.

Do not remove the transportation protection devices from the shelves and storage compartments until the appliance has been installed.

In addition to the statutory national regulations, observe the connection conditions of the local power supply companies.

After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 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 chapter

“Cleaning the appliance”).

en

Electrical connection

The socket must be near the appliance and also freely accessible following installation of the appliance.

The appliance complies with the protection class I.

Connect the appliance to 220-240 V/50 Hz alternating current via a correctly installed socket with protective conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 to 16 A fuse.

For appliances operated in non-European countries, check whether the stated voltage and current type on the rating plate match the values of your mains supply.

These specifications can be found on the rating plate

(see chapter “Customer service”).

Warning

Never connect the appliance to electronic energy saver plugs.

Our appliances can be used with mains and sinecontrolled inverters. Mains-controlled inverters are used for photovoltaic systems which are connected directly to the national grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be used for isolated applications (e.g. on ships or in mountain lodges) which are not connected directly to the national grid.

Practical tips for storing wine

Unpack bottles of wine – do not leave in crates or cardboard boxes – before storing in the refrigerator compartment.

Place old bottles so that the cork is always wet.

There should never be an air gap between the wine and the cork.

The open bottle shelves are especially suitable because they do not interrupt the air circulation. As a result, the atmospheric humidity which condenses on the bottles quickly dries again.

Before the wine is drunk, it should be “warmed up”

(chambré): Place e.g. rosé wine on the table approx.

2–5 hours before drinking, red wine 4–5 hours before drinking. The wine will then be at the correct drinking temperature. Sparkling wine and

Champagne should be cooled in the refrigerator shortly before drinking.

Remember that wine should always be cooled slightly lower than the ideal serving temperature, as its temperature increases as soon as it is poured into a glass!

Drinking temperatures

The correct serving temperature is crucial for the taste and therefore your enjoyment of the wine.

We recommend serving wine at the following drinking temperatures:

Type of wine

Bordeaux red

Côtes du Rhône red/

Barolo

Burgundy red/

Bordeaux red

Port

Young Burgundy red

Young red wine

Young Beaujolais/all white wines with little residual sugar

Old white wines/
