Precautions and tips

! The appliance was designed and manufactured in
EN
compliance with international safety standards. The
following warnings are provided for safety reasons and
must be read carefully.
CAUTION: Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw
away your old refrigertor or freezer:
- Take off the doors.
- Leave the shelves in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.

General safety

• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
• The appliance must be used to store food products by
adults only and according to the instructions in this
manual.
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or
moist hands and feet.
• Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could
cause skin abrasions or burns.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from
the mains outlet, do not pull on the cable.
• Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the
appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It is
not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on
(appliance off) since it will not eliminate all electrical
contact.
• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause
injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.
• Do not use devices or tools other than the special scraper
provided inside the compartments.
• Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play
with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they be
allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.
• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can
become a choking or suffocation hazard.

Disposal

• Observe local environmental standards when disposing
packaging material for recycling purposes.
• Observe existing legislation when disposing of the old
appliance.
Refrigerants such as isobutane and cyclopentane are
located in the cooling zones and the isolation system of
the refrigerator and freezer. Ensure that the pipes are
not damaged. Leakage of these refrigerants is harmful
to the environment.
• Make the appliance unusable by cutting off the cable
and remove any door catches before disposal.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room.
Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight and do
not place it near heat sources.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or
opening the door too frequently in order to conserve
energy.
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air
must circulate freely for food to be preserved properly.
If circulation is impeded, the compressor will work
continuously.
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The
internal temperature will increase and force the
compressor to work harder and will consume more
energy.
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance). A
thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food
products more difficult and results in increased energy
consumption.
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air
from escaping (see Maintenance).
