This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;
- farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
- bed and breakfast type environments;
- catering and similar non-retail applications.
For saving energy
• Do not stuff food into the compartments. That may interfere with the cold air flow. Provide sufficient space between foods.
• Open/close the doors minimum times. Minimizing the number of times the door is opened/closed prevents cool air from escaping and reduces the amount of wasted electricity.
• Do not block the cold air outlet with food items. If cool air does not spread into every corner of compartments, then the interior will not be sufficiently cooled and more electricity will be consumed.
• The cold air discharges out of the outlet of the duct at the back (P. 10).
• Store warm food and drinks after they have cooled. Otherwise, they will not only raise the interior temperature, but also affect the freshness of other foods.
Duct
Disposing of the packaging
Please recycle where possible (e.g. cardboard, plastic bags, adhesive tape and polystyrene) and make sure you dispose of all other packing materials safely.
Keep the packaging out of the reach of babies and young children, to avoid injury or suffocation.
