WARNINGS

It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.

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

™This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance.

™Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

™This appliance should be serviced by an authorized Service Centre, and only genuine spare parts should be used.

™Before any cleaning or maintenance work is carried out, be sure to switch off and unplug the appliance.

™If the appliance is transported horizontally, it is possible that the oil contained in the compressor flows in the refrigerant circuit. It is advisable to wait at least two hours before connecting the appliance to allow the oil to flow back in the compressor.

™The inner lining of the appliance consists of channels through which the refrigerant passes. If these should be punctured this would damage the appliance beyond repair and cause food loss.

Solid ice should be allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance. See defrost instructions.
