closed properly. It
always leaves a gap.
• Because of the appliances’s low
temperature, the door seal can
easily get hard and deformed.
• Use a hair dryer or put a hot
towel on the spot where the
gasket is deformed.
• When the gasket is soft once
again, close the door and com-
press it tightly.
9.2 Power Interruption
In the event of a power cut, food should remain safely cold for about 18 hours. Follow
these tips during a prolonged power interruption, especially in summer:
▶ Open the door as few times as possible.
▶ Do not put additional food into the freezer during a power interruption.
▶ If prior notice of a power interruption is given and the interruption duration is longer
than 15 hours, make some ice and put it in a container in the top of the freezer com-
partment.
▶ As temperature in the freezer will rise during a power interruption or other failure,
the storage period and edible quality of food will be reduced. Any food that defrosts
should be either consumed, or cooked and refrozen (where suitable) soon after-
wards in order to prevent health risks.
Notice: Memory function during power interruption
After restoration of power the appliance continues with the settings that were set be-
fore the power failure.

10.1 Unpacking
▶ Take the appliance out of the packaging.
▶ Remove all packaging materials.
10.2 Environmental conditions
The room temperature should always be between 18 °C and 43 °C, since it can inuence
the temperature inside the appliance and its energy consumption. Do not install the appli-
ance near other heat-emitting appliances (ovens, refrigerators) without isolation.

10.4 Ventilaton cross-section
To achieve sucient ventilation of the appliance for
safety reasons, the information of the required ventila-
tion cross sections must be observed (Fig. 10.4).
10.5 Aligning the appliance
The appliance should be placed on a at and solid sur-
face. If the appliance is placed on a pedestal, strong and
re-resistant materials must be used. Never use the
foam packing material as a pedestal.
1. Tilt the appliance slightly backwards (Fig. 10.5).
2. Set the feet to the desired level.
3. The stability can be checked by alternately bump-
ing on the diagonals. The slight swaying should be
the same in both directions. Otherwise the frame
can warp; possible leaking door seals are the result.
A low tendency to the rear eases the closing of the
door.

10.6 Using adjustable feet
If the freezer is unstable, the feet can be adjusted: Ro-
tate the adjustable feet according to the direction of
arrow (Fig. 10.6) to turn them up or down:
▶ Turning the feet clockwise raises the appliance.
▶ Turning the feet counterclockwise lowers it.
10.7 Waiting time
To the maintenance-free lubrication oil is located in the
capsule of the compressor. This oil can get through the
closed pipe system during slanting transport. Before
connecting the appliance to the power supply you have
to wait 6 hours (Fig. 10.7) so that the oil runs back into
the capsule.
10.8 Electrical connection
Before each connection check if:
▶ power supply, socket and fusing are appropriate to the rating plate.
▶ the power socket is earthed and no multi-plug or extension.
▶ the power plug and socket are strictly according.
Connect the plug to a properly installed household socket.
