Information on the safety of children and persons at risk

This appliance may be used by children over 8 years of age and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, provided they are supervised during use or have received instruction in the safe use of the appliance and understand the risks involved.
Children aged 3 to 8 years may fill refrigerators with food and remove food.
Ensure that children do not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and maintenance of the appliance may only be carried out by children if they are at least 8 years old and supervised.
Keep all packaging away from children. There is a danger of suffocation.
When you dispose of the appliance, unplug it from the wall outlet, cut the power cord and remove the door. This will prevent children playing on the appliance from injuring themselves, getting hit or getting trapped.
If this machine replaces an older machine with a spring lock and latch on the door or lid, disable the spring lock and latch before disposing of the old machine. This will prevent children from getting trapped and suffocating.

General advice

Keep ventilation openings in the unit housing or in the built-in cabinet free of obstacles.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to speed up the defrosting process.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
Do not use other electrical appliances, such as ice machines, inside refrigeration appliances unless they are approved for this purpose by the manufacturer.
If there is a light bulb inside the appliance, do not touch it. If it has been switched on for a long time, it can become very hot. The light bulb supplied with this unit is a special bulb that may only be used with the unit supplied. This light bulb is not suitable for household lighting. Do not use the unit without the light bulb.
When setting up the machine, take care not to pinch or damage the power cord.
Do not store explosive substances such as spray cans containing a flammable propellant in this appliance.
During transport and installation of the unit, take care not to damage any components of the refrigerant circuit.
Avoid naked flames and sources of ignition near the unit.
Thoroughly and regularly ventilate the room in which the unit is located.
It is dangerous to modify this product in any way. Any damage to the cable may cause a short circuit, fire or electric shock.
All electrical components such as the plug, power cord and compressor must be replaced by a certified service centre or by qualified service personnel.
The power cord must not be extended.
Be careful not to pinch or damage the power plug. A pinched or damaged power plug may overheat and cause a fire.
Make sure that you can reach the power plug of the machine at any time.
Do not pull on the power cord.
If the power outlet is loose, do not plug in the power plug. There is a risk of electric shock or fire.
This machine is heavy. Be careful when moving it.
Do not touch the freezer compartment if your hands are damp or wet, as this may cause skin abrasions or cold burns.

This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor,you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

Notes on daily use

Do not put hot food in the machine.
Do not place food directly against the rear panel.
Frozen food must not be refrozen after defrosting.
Store packaged frozen food according to the instructions of the frozen food manufacturer.
Do not place carbonated fizzy drinks in the freezer compartment as the pressure they generate can cause them to explode and damage the appliance.
Open the door as rarely as possible.
Do not leave the door open too long.
Do not set the thermostat too low.
To reduce energy consumption, leave all accessories, such as drawers, shelves or racks in the appliance.

Notes on installation

Unpack the machine and check for damage. Do not connect the machine if it is damaged. Report any damage immediately to the manufacturer. Save the original packaging for possible return shipment.
Wait at least four hours before connecting the unit to allow the coolant to distribute itself in the cooling circuit.
Ensure that there is sufficient air circulation around the unit. Otherwise, the unit may overheat.
If possible, the spacers on the unit should rest against the wall. This prevents burns caused by touching the hot compressor or condenser.
The unit must not be installed near radiators or cookers.
Make sure that the mains plug is always accessible after the unit has been installed.
