The following instructions are for your own safety and should be observed without
fail. We can neither be held responsible, nor uphold the guarantee in case of
failure to observe these recommendations, which may lead to material damage or
physical injury.
- This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical , s ensory or ment al ca pabili ties , or la ck

have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsi bl e for th ei r saf ety.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
- Your appliance must be installed, fixed if
necessary and used in compliance with the
instr uctions in this op erating and ins tallation
instructions manual in order to avoid any
damage and/or danger due to any lack of
stabil ity or fault y in stal lati o n.
If the appliance has been delivered
to your home in a horizontal
position, stand it upright and then
wait 2 hours before plugging it in. A
small amount of oil may have
flowed into the refrigeration circuit,
and you must allow time for this to
flow back towards the motor
before connecting the appliance.
Failure to do so may damage the
appliance.
- If you appliance is fit ted with castors, please
remember that they are only designed to
assist in small movements. Do not use them
for longer journeys.
- Carry out an initial cleaning operation (see
the section on "Installing your appliance")
before connecting your appliance to the
electrical supply. Disconnect your appliance
prior to performing any maintenance operation. Grasp the plug directly, instead of
pulling on the power cable.
- Do not place bottles or jars containing
liquids in the freezer unless they are only twothirds full: freezing causes liquids to expand,
which can cause the container to explode.
- Do not use any other method than those we
recommend in this manual for speeding up
defrosting.
- Do not use electrical equipment inside
compartments designed for preserving
frozen food unless the manufacturer
recommends otherwise.
- Do not let children play with the appliance
and keep your pets well away from it.
- Worn out appliances must be rendered
unusable. Unplug and cut the electric cable
flush with the appliance. Render the door
catch unusable or, better still, remove the
door, so as to ensure that no child or animal
risks being shut inside whilst playing.
- If a problem arises that you are unable to
resolve using the advice given (see the
"Noise, inconveniences, minor breakdowns"
section), please contac t an official after-sales
service or a qualified professi onal.
Your appliance's refrigeration
circuit is filled with isobutane
refrigerant (R600a), a natural, nonpolluting gas that is, however,
inflammable. Ensure that none of
the components in your appliance's
refrigeration circuit have been
damaged during transport or
installation. If you detect any
damage, keep your appliance away
from flames or any type of source
of heat or combustion and ventilate
