WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES

These warnings are provided to improve
safety, and should be read carefully
before installing or using your appliance.

This appliance is only intended for the
freezing and storage of foodstuff.

This appliance should only be operated
by adults. Children must not be allowed
to tamper with the control buttons or
play with the appliance.

Changes in the electrical mains system
in connection with the installation of this
appliance should always be carried out
by an authorised electrician or
competent person.

Do not under any circumstances
attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by untrained people
may result in personal injury or serious
malfunction of the appliance.

Service of the appliance should be
carried out by an authorised service
company, and only original spare parts
should be used.

It is dangerous to alter the appliance
specifications, or to change the
appliance in any other way.

Make sure that the appliance is not
placed on top of the mains cable.

This appliance includes components
that are heated during operation.

Consequently, adequate ventilation
must always be provided. If ventilation
is insufficient defects may occur,
resulting in the warming up of the
stored frozen food. See under
Installation.

The inside of the appliance contains
pipes through which coolant flows. If
these pipes are punctured the
appliance may be damaged beyond
repair and the frozen food may warm
up. Do not damage inside of the
appliance with sharp implements.

This appliance is heavy. Take care
when moving it.

If the appliance is fitted with a lock to
prevent tampering by children, the key
must always be kept safely out of the
reach of children, and far away from the
appliance.

Before disposing of an old appliance,
make sure that the lock (if present) no
longer works. This is to prevent accidents
and avoid the danger of children getting
locked inside.

IN THE INTERESTS OF THE
ENVIRONMENT:

When disposing of your old appliance:

Check with your local Council or
Environmental Health Officer to see if
there are facilities in your area for
collecting the gas from the appliance for
recycling. This will help reduce the
amount of CFC gas released into the
atmosphere.

Help to keep your country tidy - when
disposing of an old appliance or a CFC
free appliance use an authorised disposal
site.

IMPORTANT

It is vital that these instructions are
kept with the appliance for future
use. If the appliance is sold or given
to another user, or if you move and
leave the appliance behind, you
must ensure that the instructions
accompany the appliance to enable
the next user to use the appliance
correctly and read the relevant
warnings.

POSITION

Place the freezer horizontally on a firm
surface, resting on all four feet. Use a
wooden block or similar object to
compensate for any bumps/holes in
the surface.

The room should be dry and
adequately ventilated.

If the room temperature is not between
10°C - 32°C, or falls below freezing
point, the freezer will not function as it
should.

Do not place the freezer close to
sources of heat, radiators, chimneys,
cooker, etc., and do not place the
freezer in direct sunlight.

If the freezer has been handled
standing on end it should be allowed to
stand in normal position for about 12
hours before switching it on.

Please ensure that when the appliance
is installed it is easily accessible for the
engineer in the event of a breakdown.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS.

Before switching on, make sure that the
voltage of your electricity supply is the
same as that indicated on the rating plate,
located inside the lid.

complete with either a moulded-on or re­wireable 13 amp (BS1363) plug, protected

In the case of a moulded-on plug, the fuse
cover MUST be refitted after changing
fuse. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged
the plug MUST NOT be used until a
