Tips for Energy Saving
• For the installation of the appliance, choose
a cool, dry and well-aired room.
• Protect the appliance from direct insolation.
It should not be installed near heat sources
(stove, heater etc.). If this cannot be avoid-
ed, some sort of isolation between heat
source and appliance has to be used.
• Don't cover the ventilation openings and
grid. Provide enough circulation of air on
the backside of the appliance.
• Let warm food cool down before you store
it in the fridge.
• Do not leave the door open too long when
withdrawing or putting food inside. Other-
wise, the formation of ice in the interior will
be accelerated.
• Do not set the temperature lower than
necessary. More details on temperature
settings can be taken from the chapter
'Operating elements'.
Operation Noises
There might be some typical operation noises
when the appliance is turned on. These are:
• Noise of the electric
motor is arising from
the working compressor.
When the compressor
starts to operate, then
the noises get slightly
louder for a short time.
• Noises in the tubes of the circulation of the
refrigerant.
Disposal
Appliances that are marked with
this symbol have to be disposed of
separately from household rubbish.
These appliances contain valuable
resources that can be recycled. A
correct waste disposal protects the
environment and the health of those around
you. To get informed about it, either defer to
your municipal administration or the retailer.
• Pull the mains plug out of the socket and
disconnect it from the appliance before
getting rid of it.
• The cooling medium Isobutane
(R600a) and the propellant in the
isolation Cyclopentane (C 5 H 10 )
are inflammable substances,
thus, need to be appropriately disposed of.
• Make sure the tubes of the cooling circuit
don't get damaged before the proper
disposal.
Warranty

ranty of two years starting from the date of

all defects which are noticeably based on

stantially affect the function, free of charge.
