Transport the appliance upright.
u
Do not transport the appliance without assistance.
3 Installing the appliance
WARNING
Risk of fire due to short circuit!
If the mains cable/connector of the appliance or of another
appliance touch the rear of the appliance, the mains cable/

leading to a short circuit.
u
Stand the appliance so that it is not touched by connectors
or main cables.
u
Do not plug the appliance or any others into sockets located
near the rear of the appliance.
WARNING
Fire hazard due to dampness!
If live parts or the mains lead become damp this may cause
short circuits.
u
The appliance is designed for use in enclosed areas. Do not
operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is
exposed to splash water or damp conditions.
u
Only use the appliance when it is installed.
WARNING
Fire hazard due to refrigerant!
The coolant used is eco-friendly but also flammable. Any
leaking coolant may ignite.
u
Do not damage the piping of the refrigeration circuit.
WARNING
Fire hazard and danger of damage!
u
Do not place appliances emitting heat e.g. microwaves,
toasters etc. on the appliance!
WARNING
Blocked ventilation openings pose a risk of fire and damage!
u
Always keep the ventilation openings clear. Always ensure
that the appliance is properly ventilated!
If your appliance is not a side-by-side (SBS) appliance:*
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to condensate!
u
Do not install the appliance directly alongside a further
refrigerator/freezer.
General safety information
2 * Depending on model and options
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to condensation!*
When stacking multiple appliances there is a risk of conden-
sation damage.
Your EG.. up to a height of 880 mm is fitted with an overhead
heating system.
u
Do not stack refrigerators or freezers unless the bottom
appliance is your Liebherr-EG... model up to a height of 880
mm.
q
In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the

q
The more coolant there is in the appliance, the larger the
room in which the appliance is installed must be. If the room
is too small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of gas
and air. For each 8 g of coolant the installation space must
be at least 1 m
3
. Information on the coolant is on the model
plate inside the appliance.
