Warning and Safety instructions

Safe operation of the appliance is only assured if it has been installed

and connected in accordance with these operating and installation instructions.

This appliance may only be used in mobile installations such as ships,

caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Installation work, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by

suitably qualified and competent persons to ensure safety.

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and the manufacturer will not be held liable.

Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply

when:

it has been switched off at the wall socket and the plug has been withdrawn.

the fuse from the fused spur connection unit has been withdrawn, or

the mains fuse has been withdrawn, or the screw-out fuse removed (in countries where this is applicable).

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead.

Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infestation

by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Correct use

Never handle frozen food with wet hands. Your hands may freeze to

the frozen food.

Do not take ice cubes out with your bare hands and never place ice

cubes or ice lollies in your mouth straight from the freezer. The very low temperature of the frozen ice or lollies can cause frost burn to the lips and tongue.

Do not refreeze thawed or partially thawed food.

Defrosted food should be used up as quickly as possible, as food soon loses it nutritional value and goes off. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.

Never store explosive materials in the appliance or any products

containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Thermostats switching on may produce sparks which could present a fire hazard. Flammable compounds could explode.

Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g. an electric ice-

cream maker) inside the appliance. Danger of sparking and explosion.
