• To avoid the risk of children becoming trapped
and suffocating, do not allow them to play or
hide inside the appliance.
• Do not swallow the contents (non-toxic) of the ice
packs (in some models).
• Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately
after taking them out of the freezer since they
may cause cold burns.
Use
• Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning
operation, unplug the appliance or disconnect it
from the power supply.
• All appliances equipped with an automatic icemaker and water dispenser must be connected to
a water supply that only delivers drinking water
(with mains water pressure of between 0.17 and

connected to the water supply must be filled with
drinking water only.

fresh food and the freezer compartment only for
storing frozen food, freezing fresh food and
making ice cubes.

provided may compromise the hygiene and safety
of water dispensed.

consecutive, but before initial consumption) and
discard the ice produced in the first 24 hours.
• Reposition the removable water dispenser (if
present), ensuring your hands are hygienically
clean.
• Periodically clean the ice bucket or drawer under
running water only.
• Every six months, sanitize the water and ice
dispenser system using a food grade disinfectant
solution (with sodium hypochlorite) which does not
taint the appliance materials. Rinse with water
before use.
• Replacement of any parts of the ice and water
dispenser must be carried out using original spare
parts provided by the Manufacturer.
• Any work on the appliance must be carried out by
a qualified technician or the After-sales Service.
