1.5 Saving energy
-
Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation
openings or grille.
-
Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
stove, heater or similar object.
-
The energy consumption depends on the installation condi-
tions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.2) .
-
Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
-
The lower the temperature setting, the higher the power
consumption.
-
Store food logically. (see Appliance at a glance).
-
Ensure that all food is well packed and covered for storage.
This will prevent frost from forming.
-
First cool warm food to room temperature before storing it .
Accumulated dust increases the energy
consumption:
-
Once a year, dust the refrigerating unit
together with the metal grille of the heat
exchanger at the back of the appliance.
1.6 Insulation plate
The insulation plate for part-load operation is available as an
accessory from specialist dealers.
If you do not store much food in the appli-
ance, you can reduce the power consump-
tion by as much as 50 % by using the insu-
lation plate. Up to 5 drawers can be de-
energised, depending on model. At least 3
drawers are necessary for cooling. More
information accompanies the insulation
plate.

take hold of the plug. Do not pull the cable.
-
Install and connect the appliance only as instructed.
-
Please keep these instructions in a safe place and pass
them on to any subsequent owners.
Fire hazard:
-
The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flam-
mable. Escaping refrigerant may ignite.
•
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.
•
Do not allow naked flames or ignition sources to enter the
appliance.
•
Do not use any electrical appliances in the interior (e.g.
steam cleaners, heaters, ice cream maker etc.).
•
If refrigerant escapes: eliminate naked flames or sources
of ignition from the vicinity. Pull out the power plug. Venti-
late the area well. Notify customer service.
-
Do not store explosives or sprays using combustible propel-
lants such as butane, propane, pentane, etc. in the appli-
ance. Respective spray cans can be identified by reference
to the contents printed on the can or by a flame symbol.
Gases possibly escaping may ignite due to electrical
components.
-
Keep burning candles, lamps and other items with naked
flames away from the appliance so that they do not set the
appliance on fire.
-
Only store high-percentage alcohol in tightly sealed, upright
containers. Alcohol possibly escaping may ignite due to
electrical components.
Danger of tipping and falling:
-
Do not misuse the plinth, drawers, doors etc. as a step or for
support. This applies particularly to children.
Danger of food poisoning:
-
Do not consume food which has been stored too long.
Danger of frostbite, numbness and pain:
-
Avoid lasting skin contact with cold surfaces or refrigerated/
frozen food or take protective steps, e.g. wear gloves. Do
not consume ice cream, water ice or ice cubes immediately
and do not consume them too cold.
