as chilled drugs and refrigerated products which are

subject to specific standards requirements. Retrofitting

drawers in Liebherr refrigerators/freezers can result in the

goods stored becoming spoiled or damaged. The retrofit‐

ting must therefore be completed exclusively by author‐

ised service providers from the manufacturer of the refrig‐

erator/freezer.

not operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is

exposed to splash water or damp conditions.

4.1.1 Installation location

WARNING

Leaking coolant and oil!

Fire. The coolant contained in the appliance is eco-friendly,

but also flammable. The oil contained in the appliance

is flammable. Escaping coolant and oil can ignite if the

concentration is high enough and in contact with an

external heat source.

Putting into operation

* Depending on model and options 7

The best place for installation is a dry and well ventilated

room.

If the appliance is installed in a very humid environment,

condensation can form on the outside of the appliance.

Always ensure good airflow and ventilation in the instal‐

lation location.

The more refrigerant there is in the appliance, the larger

the space it is installed in must be. If the space is too

small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of gas

and air. For every 8g of refrigerant, the installation space

must be at least 1 m

. Information regarding the refrig‐

erant can be found on the type plate inside the appliance.

The floor of the location must be horizontal and even.

The installation location must be able to withstand the

weight of the appliance plus weight when stocked to

maximum level. (see 9.1 Technical specifications)

Use in hazardous areas is not permitted.

4.1.2 Electrical connection

WARNING

Danger of fire due to incorrect positioning!

If the mains cable or plug touches the back of the appli‐

ance, the vibration can damage the mains cable or the plug

resulting in a short circuit.

Make sure the mains cable is not trapped under the appli‐

ance when you position the appliance.

Stand the appliance so that it is not touched by connec‐

tors or main cables.

Do not connect any appliances to sockets in the area of

the back of the appliance.

Do not place and operate multi-sockets/power distribu‐

tors and other electronic devices (such as halogen trans‐

formers) at the back of the appliances.

The safety thermostat sensor monitors the temperature

drop and thus protects against excessively low tempera‐

tures (Freeze Protect). If the temperature drops below the

threshold value, the appliance regulates the temperature

automatically. The error message FRZ. PROT (Freeze Protect)

(see6.2Messages) appears.

Note

Do not cover the safety thermostat sensor.

7.2.2 C sensor (control sensor)

The C sensor is permanently installed and regulates the

interior temperature of the appliance. You can calibrate the

C sensor if necessary. (see 6.1.19 Sensor calibration )

8.2 Defrosting appliance

WARNING

Improper defrosting of the appliance!

Injuries and damage.

Do not use mechanical equipment or other methods to

speed up the defrosting process other than those recom‐

mended by the manufacturer.

Do not use electrical heating or steam-cleaning appli‐

ances, naked flames or defroster sprays to defrost.

Do not use sharp objects to remove ice.

Defrosting is performed automatically. Defrost water drops

into defrost water collection tray and must be emptied at

regular intervals.

Note

To avoid having to empty the defrost water collection

tray frequently, you can place a container under the drain

opening in the tray.

The defrost water collection tray may only be inserted on

the lowest support rib.

To maintain the functionality of the appliance, we recom‐

mend defrosting it when there is a high buildup of ice.

Icing in the interior is determined by the location (e.g.

high humidity), settings on the appliance and incorrect user

behaviour.

Manual defrosting:

Switch off appliance. (see 6.1.2 Switching appliance on

and off )

Pull out mains plug.

Store refrigerated items elsewhere.

Leave appliance door open during defrosting process.

Pull out defrost water collection tray at the front, empty

and clean the appliance.

11 Disposal

11.1 Preparing appliance for disposal

Liebherr uses batteries in some of its appli‐

ances. In the EU, for environmental reasons,

legislation obliges the end user to remove

these batteries before disposing of old appli‐

ances. If your appliance contains batteries, a

corresponding notice is attached.

Lamps If you can remove the lamps yourself without

destroying them, also remove these before

disposal.

Take the appliance out of operation.

Appliances with batteries: remove the batteries. For

description, see Maintenance chapter.

If possible: remove lamps without destroying them.

11.2 Disposing of the appliance in an

environmentally friendly manner

The appliance still contains

valuable materials and must

be disposed of separately from

unsorted municipal waste.

Dispose of batteries separately

from the old appliance. To do

this, you can return the batteries

free of charge to retailers as

well as recycling centres and

collection centres for recyclable

materials.

Lamps Dispose of removed lamps

via the respective collection

systems.

For Germany: You can dispose of the appli‐

ance free of charge via the

class 1 collection containers

at the local recycling and

recyclable material collection

centres. When purchasing a new

fridge/freezer, if the sales area

> 400 m

, retailers will also take

back the old appliance free of

charge.

WARNING

Leaking coolant and oil!

Fire. The coolant contained in the appliance is eco-friendly,

but also flammable. The oil contained in the appliance

is flammable. Escaping coolant and oil can ignite if the

concentration is high enough and in contact with an

external heat source.

Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit and

the compressor.

Observe the notes on transporting the appliance.

(see 4.3 Transporting appliance)

Transport the appliance without damaging it.

Dispose of batteries, lamps and the appliance according

to the above specifications.
