The user instructions apply			to several models,	for
this	reason	there may be	some differences	in
the	details	given, according to the type of the appliance..
1 Protecting the environment / advice for disposal
Packing
serves to protect the appliance			during transportation and

recyclable materials have been used for packaging. Corrugated board/cardboard (mainly from waste paper).

-shaped parts in PS (foamed CFC- free polystyrene)

-foils and bags in PE (polyethylene)

-strapping tapes in PP (polypropylene)

- Please hand over all packaging to the							nearest official
collection point,			so that all the different materials can
be re-used or recycled as					far	as possible			and
any	illegal	depositing of such materials is thus avoided
2 Deciding where to locate your appliance
In	order to	avoid	any damage			or	injury to
persons or		things, the appliance				should be unpacked
by two people		and placed in the chosen location
Before positioning it,				check	that	your new appliance
has no visible outer damage.
On no account should				you start up your appliance					if it is
damaged. Check the appliance carefully for:
■ Damage to the packaging which						might		indicate that
	appliance has been mishandled during							transportation

■Damage to the outer casing

■Any visible damage to the cable / plug

If in any doubt	let	the	customer	service
department
check the appliance.
It must at all costs be avoided,		that any environmentally
damaging refrigerant	leaks	out	by starting	up the
appliance.

Instruction for use

Freezer

Do

not

use

washing

liquids,

sharp

or

abrasive

household

products

or

any

other

cleaning

agents

containing soda.

■

Make sure that the pipes for the

circulation

of the

refrigerant

are

not

damaged in

any way

during

installation of the appliance.

■

The appliance

must only be

used for the

purpose

for

which it is intended.

■

The

appliance. must

be

placed

on

a

firm,

level

surface.

This

is

the

only

way

to

ensure

that

the

refrigerant

can

circulate

freely

and

thus

ensure that your appliance will work effciently.

■

If

possible,

place

your

appliance

in

a

cool,

well aired, dry room.

■

Do not place your appliance in direct

sunlight, nor in a

room at high temperature.

■

Do

not

place

your

appliance

in

the

vicinity

of

any

sources

of

direct

heat

such as

heating,

ovens,

cooking

stove

etc.

(This

would

mean

the

compressor would have

to

work

harder

and

as

a

result

the

power

consumption

would

be

considerably higher).

If

installation

near

a

direct

heat

source

cannot

be

avoided, we recommend

fitting

a

suitable

insulation

plate

between the

appliance

and

the

heat source (do not

use

asbestos), or

at least

the

following minimum

distances must be observed: .

■

from a gas or electric cooker

30cm

■

from a radiator or oven etc

30 cm

■

from another refrigerating appliance

30 cm

Do not

place any appliances, such as

microwaves,

toasters etc.

which give

off

heat

on

the

appliance

Never obstruct the ventilation grille.

Always pull out the plug itself

and

never

pull

the

cable

when

cutting

the

appliance off

from

the

mains

supply.

WARNING !

Leave the appliance standing in its final position for

at least 2 hours before

switching it

on, so

that the

circulation

of

the

refrigerant

stabilises

and

no

operating problems occur.

Before connecting up the appliance, make sure that it is absolutely dry inside - especially in the corners..

Danger warnings

Depending

on

its

composition,

the

refrigerant

can

be

easily

inflammable.

The

refrigerant

circuit

has

been

hermetically sealed

and

has been

tested

many times

for

possible leaks. Any inexpert interference

might well

create

a

fire

hazard.

Make sure

nothing

mechanically

effects

the

circulation

of the

refrigerant,

nor,

in particular,

the

accessible

parts

around

the

compressor..

Only expert professional personnel should intervene on the refrigerating system.
