This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a),a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has,however,led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor,you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable,and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
- A layer of ice can form due to the humidity entering when the door is open. This reduces the cooling capacity. If the layer is thicker than 2 mm, the refrigerator must be defrosted.
- The refrigerator must be defrosted manually. Before defrosting, remove all food items, the ice cube tray and the shelf. Set the temperature controller to „0“ (the compressor is now switched off) and leave the door open. After the ice has melted, wipe the water out of the appliance. For faster defrosting you can put a bowl of warm water (about 50 °C) is the appliance.
- Do not defrost the appliance with an electric heater, as the hot air can deform the interior panelling.
- Do not scratch ice with sharp or pointed objects. This can damage the housing or the cooling circuit.
- If the mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced immediately by a specialist.

- The grille of the capacitor on the back of the unit and the adjacent components can be sucked off with a soft brush attachment.
Cleaning tips
Condensation may form on the outside of the unit. This may be due to a change
in room temperature. Wipe off the condensation water. If the problem persists,
please contact a
qualified technician.
