Warning and Safety Instructions

~Do not use defrosting sprays or de-icers.

They may cause a build-up of potentially explosive gasses or contain substances that can damage the plastic or that could pose a danger to health.

~Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals.

They can cause the seals to deteriorate over time.

~If you store fatty or oily foods in the appliance or the appliance door, make sure that no oil or grease leaks onto the plastic parts of the appliance.

This can cause the plastic to crack and break.

~Do not block the ventilation slits, because this interferes with proper air supply to the appliance. This in turn causes increased electricity consumption and may also result in damage to appliance parts.

~The appliance is designed for use within a certain climate range (room temperature range) and should not be used outside this range. The climate range for your appliance is printed on the data plate inside the appliance.

If the room temperature is cold, this will cause the appliance to switch off for longer periods of time, with the result that it cannot maintain the required internal temperature.

~Never use a steam cleaner to defrost or clean the appliance.

The steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Disposing of your old refrigerator / freezer

~Before disposing of your old fridge/freezer, first make the door latch or lock unusable.

This will prevent children from accidentally locking themselves in and endangering their lives.

~Be careful not to damage any part of the cooling system, for example by

puncturing the coolant channels in the evaporator.

kinking any pipework.

scratching the surface coating.

Caution: Splashes of coolant can damage the eyes.

The manufacturer will not be held liable for damage caused by failure to comply with these "Warning and Safety Instructions".
