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 left with the appliance in order that the new owner
can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant safety information.

This information has been provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read it carefully before installing
or using the appliance.

Installation

¥ This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken

when moving it.

¥ It is dangerous to alter the specifications or

attempt to modify this product in any way.

¥ Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance

does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

Important: if the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by a special cord or assembly
available from your local Service Centre.

¥ Any electrical work required to install this

appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person.

¥ There are working parts in this product which

heat up. Always ensure that there is adequate
ventilation as a failure to do this will result in
possible food loss. See Installation instructions.

¥ Parts which heat up should not be exposed.

Whenever possible, the back of the appliance
should be close to a wall but leaving the required
distance for ventilation as stated in the installation
instructions.

¥ The appliance should be left for 2 hours after

adults.

¥ Do not allow children to tamper with the controls

or play with the product.

During Use

¥ This appliance is designed for domestic use only,

specifically for the storage of edible foodstuffs.

¥ Frozen food must NOT be re-frozen once it has

thawed out.

¥ Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the

freezer as it creates pressure on the container
which may cause it to explode, resulting damage

to the appliance.

¥ Do not remove items from the freezer if your

hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin
abrasions or frost/freezer burns.

¥ Ice lollies can cause Ôfrost/freezer burnsÕ if

consumed straight from the freezer.

¥ ManufacturersÕ food storage recommendations

should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant
instructions.

¥ The cooling plate or refrigerated freezer shelves

in this appliance contain channels through which
the refrigerant passes. If these are punctured this
will cause substantial damage the appliance and
result in food loss. DO NOT USE SHARP
INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost or ice. Frost
may be removed by using the scraper provided.
Under NO circumstances should solid ice be
forced off the lining or the shelves. Solid ice
should be allowed to thaw, when defrosting the
appliance. See Defrost Instructions.
