Malfunctions
Your appliance is designed and manufactured for a lengthy, reliable
operating life with no malfunctions. If a malfunction nonetheless
occurs during operation, check whether it is due to an operating
error. Please note that even during the warranty period the resultant
servicing costs in this case will have to be borne by the owner.
You may be able to rectify the following faults by checking
the possible causes yourself:
• Appliance does not function:
– Is the appliance switched on?
– Is the plug correctly fitted in the mains socket?
– Is the socket fuse intact?
• Loud running noise:
– Is the appliance set up firmly on the floor?
– Does the appliance cause nearby items of furniture or objects
to vibrate? Please note that noises caused by the refrigerant
circuit cannot be avoided.
• The temperature is not low enough:
– Is the temperature setting correct (see "Setting the tempera-
ture")?
– Have excessive amounts of fresh food been placed in the ap-
pliance?
– Does the separately installed thermometer show the correct
reading?
– Is the ventilation system working properly?
– Is the appliance set up too close to a heat source?
If none of the above causes
apply and you cannot rectify
the fault yourself, contact the
nearest customer service
department stating the type
designation ➊, index ➋ and
appliance number ➌ as indi-
cated on the type plate. The
type plate is located on the
inside left of the appliance.
Shutting your appliance down
If your appliance is to be shut down for any length of time, switch
it off and disconnect the plug or switch off or unscrew the fuse.
Clean the appliance and leave the door open in order to prevent
unpleasant smells.
The refrigerant circuit has been tested for leaks.
The appliance is radio-suppressed to EN 55014 and thus complies
with EC Directive 87/308/EEC.
All types and models are subject to continuous improvement and
the manufacturer therefore reserves the right to make modifica-
tions to the shape, equipment and technology.

Installing appliance in a row of kitchen units
To adapt the height of the appliance to the surrounding furniture a
top unit ➊ can be added. A
gap of at least 50 mm depth
must be provided behind
and along the entire width
of this unit so as to ensure
sufficient ventilation. The
area of ventilation under-
neath the ceiling should be
at least 300 cm
