Abstract

A refrigeration appliance includes a body having walls to define an interior with an open front side. One of the walls extends from the front side of the body in a depth direction and is formed with at least one recess. A translucent pane seals the at least one recess and is at least locally clear. At least one light-emitting diode module is accommodated in the at least one recess and produces a light cone which lies completely within the interior.
