Important safety information

! General safety precautions

Keep these instructions and they should remain at the appliance when moving away or changing owner.

This appliance is designed for storing food, domestic use according to these instructions only.

Specialized companies that are qualified to do so by the manufacturer must carry out service and repairs including repairing and changing the power cord. Accessory parts supplied by them should be used only for repairing. Otherwise the appliance can be damaged or can cause other damage or injury.

The appliance is out of circuit only in that case if the plug is removed from the socket. Before cleaning and maintenance always unplug it (do not get it by the cable). If the socket is difficult to reach, switch off the appliance by cutting off the current.

Power cord must not be lengthened.

Make sure that the power plug is not squashed or damaged by the back of the fridge/freezer. A damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.

Do not place heavy articles or the fridge/freezer itself on the power cord.

- There is a risk of a short circuit and fire.

Do not remove the power cord by pulling on its lead, particularly when the fridge/freezer is being pulled out of its niche.

-Damage to the cord may cause a short-circuit, fire and/or electric shock.

-If the power cord is damaged, it must be

replaced by a certified service agent or qualified service personnel.

If the power plug socket is loose, do not insert the power plug.

- There is a risk of electric shock or fire. Without the lamp cover of interior lighting you must not operate the appliance.

When cleaning, defrosting, taking out frozen food or ice tray do not use sharp, pointed or hard devices, as they can cause damage to the appliance.

Be careful not to allow liquids to the temperature control and lighting box.

Ice and ice-cream can cause hurt if they are eaten immediately after removal from the frozen food compartment.

After dissolving frozen food must not be refrozen, it must be used up as soon as possible. Store pre-packed frozen food in accordance with the frozen food manufacturers instructions.

You must not make defrosting faster with any electric heating appliance or chemicals.

Do not put hot pot to the plastic parts.

Do not store flammable gas and liquid in the appliance, because they may explode.

Do not store carbonated drinks, bottled drinks and bottled fruits in the frozen food compartment.

Check and clean the outlet of melting water coming during defrosting regularly - a label inside the appliance warns you for this. If it is clogged the melting water gathered can cause earlier failure.

! Precautions for child safety

Do not allow children to play with the packaging of the appliance. Plastic foil can cause suffocation.

Adults must handle the appliance. Do not allow children to play with it or its controlling parts. If you are discarding the appliance pull the plug out of the socket, cut the connection cable (as close to the appliance as you can) and remove the door to prevent playing children to suffer electric shock or to close themselves into it.

!

Safety precautions for installation

Put the appliance to the wall to avoid touching or catching warm parts (compressor, condenser) to prevent possible burn.

When moving the appliance take care of the plug not to be in the socket.

When placing the appliance take care not to stand it on the power cord.

Adequate air circulation should be around the appliance, lacking this leads to overheating. To achieve sufficient ventilation follow the instructions relevant to installation.

See chapter Placement.
