Information concerning disposal

Disposal of packaging

The packaging protects your appliance from damage during transit. All utilized materials are environmentally safe and recyclable. Please help us by disposing of the packaging in an environmentally friendly manner. Please ask your dealer or your local authority about current means of disposal.

Disposal of your old appliance

Old appliances are not worthless rubbish! Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances.

WARNING:

1. Pull out the power plug.
2. Cut off the power cord and discard with the power plug.
3. Remove the door from the appliance.
4. Do not allow children to play with the appliance once it has spent its useful life. Danger of suffocation!
5. Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Refrigerators contain refrigerant and gases in the insulation. Refrigerants and gases must be recycled by professionals. Ensure that tubing of the refrigerant circuit is not damaged prior to proper disposal.

Installing the appliance

For detailed installation instructions, please refer to the Installation Guide provided with the appliance. Have a qualified technician install and connect the appliance according to the enclosed installation instructions.

NOTE:
For detailed installation instructions, relevant measurements and information, please see the Installation Guide provided with this appliance.

WARNING:
Do not install this appliance:

• Outdoors
• In an environment with dripping water
• In rooms where there is a risk of frost

It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.

Transporting

The appliance is heavy and must be handled with caution during transportation and installation. Because of the weight and dimensions of the appliance, at least two persons are necessary to move the appliance into position securely and avoid injuries to people or damage to the appliance.

WARNING:

While handling or moving the appliance avoid any damaging to the tubing, risk of refrigerant leakage.

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 distance from the heat source:

• To electric or gas oven/range 1¼” (3 cm).
• To an oil or coal-fired cooker 1113/16” (30cm).

The floor of the installation location must not give way; if required, reinforce floor. The appliance must be upright and level to function correctly. If the appliance seems unsteady there are 4 leveling legs that can be adjusted to your preference.

Ventilation

The refrigeration unit is ventilated only at the Toe- Kick in the base. Never cover that area or place anything in front of it. Otherwise the refrigeration cooling performance will be affected, and the unit must work harder increasing power consumption.
