IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings. These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.

General Safety

This appliance is designed to be operated by adults.

• Children should not be allowed to tamper with the con- trols or play with the product.

Before any cleaning or maintenance work is carried

• out - such as replacing the interior light bulb, where fitted - be sure to switch off and unplug the appliance. Ice lollies can cause frost burns if consumed straight

• from the appliance.

This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when

• moving it.

Take utmost care when handling your appliance

• so as not to cause any damages to the cooling unit with consequent possible fluid leakages. The appliance must not be located close to radia-

• tors or gas cookers.

Avoid prolonged exposure of the appliance to di-

• rect sunlight.

There must be adequate ventilation round the

• back of the appliance. Avoid any damage to the re- frigerant circuit.

FOR FREEZERS ONLY (except built-in models): an

• ideal location is the cellar or basement.

Do not use other electrical appliances (such as ice

• cream makers) inside refrigerating appliances.

Service / Repair

• Any electrical work required to install this appliance

 

should be carried out by a qualified electrician or com-

 

petent person.

• This appliance should be serviced by an authorised

 

Service Centre.

Use genuine spare parts only.

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling

 

unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore only

 

be carried out by authorised technicians.

Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance

• as it may get damaged.

Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair

• the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexpe- rienced persons may cause injury or more serious malfunctioning.

Refer to your local Service Centre, and always insist on genuine spare parts.

Positioning

Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does

• not stand on the electrical supply cable. Important: If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cable of the same type or a special kit avail- able from the manufacturer or from authorised service centres.

During normal operation, the condenser and compres-

• sor at the back of the appliance heat up considerably. For safety reasons, minimum ventilation must be as shown in the relevant paragraph. Attention: Keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.

Parts which heat up (such as compressor housing,

• condenser and their piping) should not be exposed. Wherever possible the back of the product should be against a wall.

If the appliance has been transported horizontally, it

• is possible that the oil contained in the compressor flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow the oil to flow back in the compressor.

Use

The domestic refrigerators and freezers are designed

• to be used specifically for the storage of edible food- stuffs only.

Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been

• thawed out.

Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should be

• strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions. Typically, the cooling parts of all refrigerators and

• freezers will develop frost and/or ice build-up over time. On Manual Defrost models, frost must be re- moved manually, whereas No-Frost models will de- frost automatically. Never use metal objects for defrosting your appliance as it may get damaged. Frost may be removed by using the supplied plastic scraper.

Do not use any mechanical device or artificial means

• to speed up the thawing process other than those rec- ommended by the manufacturer.

Do not use sharp or pointed instruments to scrape off

• frost or ice.

Never put fizzy drinks in the freezer as they might well

• burst.
