Intended use
• The refrigerator is intended for use in the home. It is suitable for the coo-

• If you use the refrigerator in a commercial application or forpurposes
other than the cooling of foods, please observe all valid legal regulations
for your application.
Prior to initial start–up
• Check the refrigerator for transport damage. Under no circumstance

• During transportation and installation of the appliance, be certain that
none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged.

fridge when playing (there is risk of suffocation!)or get themselves into
other dangerous situations.
