WARNING! Moderate risk: failure to observe this warning may result in injury or serious material damage. CAUTION: Low risk: failure to observe this warning may result in minor injury or material damage. NOTE: Points and special considerations which should be remembered when using the device.

Risk of fire due to refrigerant

The refrigerant circuit of the appliance contains the refrigerant R600a, an environmentally friendly but inflammable gas. Leaking refrigerant may catch fire. If it comes into contact with the eyes, it may lead to eye injuries.

• Please make sure that the refrigerant circuit 9 (lines on

the interior and on the rear of the appliance, compressor 14) is not damaged.

• Do not put the appliance into operation if the refrigerant circuit is showing signs of damage.

• Do not use any pointed or sharp objects to clean, defrost or remove deep-frozen goods and ice. This may damage the refrigerant circuit.

• Please use only the supplied ice spatula 17 to remove partially thawed, loose ice. Do not touch the refrigerant circuit 9 in the process.

• If the refrigerant circuit is damaged, ventilate the room thoroughly, disconnect the power plug and keep all sources of ignition and naked flames at a distance without fail. In this case, please consult the Service Centre.

• Never use any electrical devices in the interior of the appliance.

• Never handle sources of ignition or naked flames in the interior of the appliance.

• Position this appliance in a room with a capacity of at least 4.5 m cuit, an inflammable mix of refrigerant and air may form in rooms that are too small. The room must provide a capacity of at least 1 m tains 40 g refrigerant.

• Always ensure that there is sufficient ventilation around the appliance. To do so, comply with the clearances specified in these instructions, do not cover the compressor and do not close any of the openings on the appliance.

for every 8 g. This appliance con-

DANGER for children

• Packaging material is not a toy. Children must not play with the plastic bags: there is a risk of suffocation.

• This appliance is not designed to be used by people (including children) with limited physical, sensory or mental capabilities or people without adequate experience and/ or understanding unless they are supervised by someone responsible for their safety or are instructed by someone how to use the appliance.

• Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

DANGER of electrocution

• Connect the power plug to the wall socket only when the freezer has been finally positioned and aligned straight.

• Only connect the power plug to a properly installed wall socket that is easily accessible and delivers voltage matching the rating plate 13. The wall socket must also be easily accessible after connection. If this is not possible on your premises, it must always be possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains, for instance with the fuse. The wall socket must be fitted with protective contacts.

• Do not use any extension cables or multiple sockets.

• Take care that the mains cable is not damaged by sharp edges or hot surfaces.

• When transporting and setting up the appliance, make sure that the power cable is not trapped or crushed.

• The appliance is not completely disconnected from the mains even after being switched off. To do so, unplug.

• When unplugging the appliance from the socket, always pull on the plug and NOT the cable.

• Disconnect the mains plug from the wall socket… … if there is a fault … if you are not using the freezer, … before you move, defrost or clean the freezer.

• If there is visible damage to the appliance or the mains cable, do not use the appliance.

• To avoid any risk, do not make modifications to the appliance. The mains cable must not be replaced by a nonspecialist. Repairs must be carried out by a specialist workshop or at the Service Centre.

• If the mains cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his customer service or a similarly qualified person, to prevent hazards.

DANGER of being frozen

• Do not touch frozen goods and cold surfaces in the freezer with wet hands.

• Do not consume ice cubes or ice cream immediately after removing them from the freezer.

WARNING about material damage

• Do not tilt the appliance further than 45°. Never lay it down horizontally. This may damage the refrigeration system.

• After moving the appliance, allow it to stand for 24 hours so that the refrigerant circuit can settle. Do not put the appliance into operation until after this time.

• The temperature sensor 11 in the bottom compartment must not be covered by frozen goods. (Only to be observed if you put frozen goods in the bottom compartment without drawer.)

• Move the appliance only when it is empty.

• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.

DANGER of electric shock due to moisture.

• Do not immerse the device, the power cable or the power plug in water or any other liquid. The appliance must not be allowed to stand in water.

• Protect the appliance (except the interior) from moisture, water drops and water spray.

• Disconnect the power plug immediately if liquid has penetrated into the housing of the appliance. Have the appliance checked before re-using it.
