Safety Information

Before installing and using the appliance read this user's instruction book carefully. It contains safety precautions, hints, information and ideas. If the freezer is used in compliance with these instructions, it will operate properly and provide you with the greatest satisfaction.

These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or using the appliance.

Use the freezer only for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food and making ice cubes.

Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer, as they may cause frost burns.

Do not allow children to play or hide inside the freezer, as they may become trapped inside and suffocate.

Do not store glass containers with liquids in the freezer, as they may burst.

Ensure that the freezer is not resting on the power supply cable.

Before servicing or cleaning, always unplug the appliance or disconnect the power supply.

Do not use other electrical appliances (such as ice cream makers) inside the appliance.

Your appliance contains an environmentally friendly natural gas, isobuthane (R600a). Caution is required however, since isobuthane is flammable. Therefore it is essential to ensure that the refrigerant pipelines are not damaged.

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference.

Installation

Wait at least 2 hours before connecting the freezer to the power supply to ensure the refrigerant circuit is fully efficient.

Install the freezer in a dry, well ventilated room. Avoid locations near a source of heat or in direct sunlight.

The room temperature should correspond to the climatic classification for which the freezer was designed, see chapter "Technical data".

Place the freezer horizontally on a firm surface, resting on all four feet.

For optimum operation and in order to avoid damage when the lid is opened, leave a space of at least 5 cm from the rear wall and 5 cm at the sides.

Before connecting the freezer to the power supply, ensure that the voltage corresponds to that indicated in chapter "Technical data" under "Voltage".

Danger!

Ensure that the freezer is not resting on the power supply cable.

Do not remove the power supply cable by pulling on its lead, particularly when the freezer is being pulled out of its niche.

The power supply cable may only be replaced by a qualified electrician.

Ensure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the back of the freezer.
