Note
Accessories are available from the Liebherr Service
Center. The address for your respective country can be
found on the back of the instructions.
SmartModule
The appliance can be equipped with a SmartModule.
This is a WiFi and LAN interface for the connection
between the appliance and an external documenta‐
tion and alarm system such as Liebherr SmartMoni‐
toring.
Liebherr SmartMonitoring Dashboard is not available
in all countries. Check for availability via the QR code
(see6.2.13WiFi connection ) and entering your model.
Retrofitting drawers
Temperature qualification is required when retrofit‐
ting drawer systems in Liebherr refrigerators/freezers
where these are used for temperature-sensitive mate‐
rials such 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 retrofitting must therefore be
completed exclusively by authorized service providers
from the manufacturer of the refrigerator/freezer.
1.4 Range of appliance use
Intended use
This laboratory refrigerator, with an interior
free of ignition sources, is suitable for profes‐
sional storage of highly flammable products in
closed containers, at temperatures between
3°C(38°F) and 16°C(60°F).
Explosion-proof interior
The values relating to your appliance are
printed on the sticker on the appliance door.
Fig.3
The interior, which is free from sources of igni‐
tion, is used for storing flammable substances
in closed containers and meets the require‐
ments for Class I, Division 2 for storage of
flammable materials equivalent of Gas Group
B. Complies with the applicable requirements
of NFPA 45 and NFPA 99. This is not an explo‐
sionproof refrigerator.
Observe the following specifications for
storage:
-
Pay attention to the corresponding zones,
explosion groups and temperature classes
for the substances to be stored.
-
Observe the spontaneous combustion
temperature. The spontaneous combustion
temperature of the substances to be stored
must be higher than temperature class T6 (>
85°C(185°F)).
-
Refer to the corresponding safety data
sheet for the storage conditions of the prod‐
ucts to be stored.
-
Observe the maximum storage quantities.
-
Observe the applicable directives if you
want to store different substances together.
-
If unsure, contact a safety expert or the
supplier if the relative material is suitable
for storage.
-
Observe local and specific directives and
requirements to ensure the safety of
personnel and the facility.
Storage of temperature-sensitive substances
requires the use of an independent, perma‐
nently monitored alarm system. This alarm
system must be designed such that a respon‐
sible person can record every alarm condition
to be able to take suitable measures.
Foreseeable incorrect use
Do not use the appliance for the following
applications:
-
Storage and cooling of:
•
Chemically unstable substances
•
Blood, plasma or other body fluids for the
purpose of infusion, application or intro‐
duction in the human body.

4.1.1 Setup location
WARNING
Leaking refrigerant and oil!
Fire. The refrigerant contained within the appliance is
environmentally friendly, but flammable. The oil
contained within the appliance is flammable. Escaping
refrigerant and oil can ignite if they are of high enough
concentration and are exposed to an external heat
source.
► Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit
and the compressor.
-

The best place to set up the appliance is a dry and
well ventilated room.
-
If the appliance is set up in a very humid environ‐
ment, condensation can form on the outside of the
appliance.
Always ensure sufficient airflow and ventilation in
the setup 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 (0.28 oz) of
refrigerant, the installation space must be at least
1m
3
(35.5ft
3
). Specifications on the refrigerant in the
appliance can be found on the serial tag plate inside
the appliance.
-
The floor of the setup location must be horizontal
and even.
-
The setup location must be able to withstand the
weight of the appliance plus the weight when
stocked to maximum capacity. (see 9.1 Technical
data)
-
Use in hazardous areas is not permitted.
4.1.2 Electrical connection
WARNING
Danger of fire due to incorrect positioning!
If the power supply cable or plug touches the back of
the appliance, the vibration can damage the power
supply cable or the plug resulting in a short circuit.
► Make sure the power supply cable is not trapped
under the appliance when you position the appli‐
ance.
► Install the appliance so that it does not touch any
plugs or power cables.
► Do not connect any appliances to sockets in the area
of the back of the appliance.

8.2 Defrosting the appliance
WARNING
Appliance incorrectly defrosted!
Injuries and damage.
► Do not use mechanical devices or other means to
accelerate the defrosting process, other than those
recommended by the manufacturer.
► Do not use any electrical heating or steam cleaning
equipment, naked flames or defrosting sprays.
► Do not remove ice with sharp objects.
Defrosting is performed automatically. Defrost water
drips into the 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
recommend 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 behavior.
If the automatic defrost cycle is not sufficient:
► Start the automatic defrost manually.
(see 6.2.18 Defrosting )
If the problem persists, defrost the appliance manually:
► Switch off appliance. (see 6.2.2 Switching appliance
on and off )
► Disconnect power plug.
► Store refrigerated items elsewhere.
► Leave the appliance door open during defrosting
process.
► Pull out the defrost water collection tray at the front,
empty it and clean the appliance.

11 Disposal
11.1 Preparing the appliance for
disposal
WARNING
Risk of child entrapment!
Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer:
► Take off the doors.
► Leave the shelves in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
Liebherr uses batteries in some of its appli‐
ances. You should remove these before
disposal of the old appliance for environ‐
mental reasons. If your appliance contains
batteries, a corresponding notice is
attached to the appliance.
Lamps If you can remove the lamps yourself
without destroying them, also remove these
before disposal.
► Take the appliance out of operation.
► 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 collected separately from
unsorted municipal waste so
it can be recycled.
Dispose of batteries sepa‐
rately from the old appliance.
Certain batteries should NOT
go in household garbage or
recycling bins. Waste
batteries can always be recy‐
cled or taken to household
hazardous waste collection
points. To prevent fires from
lithium-ion batteries, tape
battery terminals and/or
place batteries in separate
plastic bags and never put
these batteries in household
garbage or recycling bins.
Shutting down
* Depending on model and options 47

Lamps Dispose of removed lamps via
the respective collection
systems.
For USA: Check the Responsible Appli‐
ance Disposal (RAD) program
to find a RAD partner near
you.
For Canada: Follow your local guidance
about recycling and disposal
capabilities near you.
WARNING
Leaking refrigerant and oil!
Fire. The refrigerant contained within the appliance is
environmentally friendly, but flammable. The oil
contained within the appliance is flammable. Escaping
refrigerant and oil can ignite if they are of high enough
concentration and are exposed to an external heat
source.
► Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit
and the compressor.
► Observe the notes on appliance transport.
(see 4.3 Transporting the appliance)
► Transport the appliance away without damaging it.
► Dispose of batteries, lamps, and the appliance
according to the above specifications.
