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 latches 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 center 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.

– Pensions that offer breakfast (Bed & Breakfasts)
– Catering and similar applications outside the retail trade

This appliance contains the coolant isobutane (R600a), a natural gas that 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 so 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 the 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.
Install this unit in a location where the ambient temperature corresponds to the climate class indicated on the unit`s nameplate:

SN| Low| This cooling unit is designed for use at ambient temperatures of 10-32 °C.
---|---|---

Notes on cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning and maintenance, switch the machine off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Do not clean the machine with metal objects. Do not use sharp objects to remove frost from the machine. Use a plastic scraper.
All electrical work required to service the unit should be performed by a qualified electrician or competent person.

Special instructions for freezers and chest freezers

When positioning the machine, make sure that the main cable is not pinched or damaged.
Ensure that there are no multiple sockets or power supply units on the rear of the machine.

To avoid contamination of food, please follow the instructions below:

The prolonged opening of the door can cause a significant temperature rise in the compartments of the unit.
Clean surfaces that may come into contact with food regularly. Clean the water drain regularly.
Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator so that meat and fish do not come into contact with or drip onto other foods.

Notes on the freezer compartments

Two-star freezer compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice cream, and making ice cubes.
One-, two- and three-star freezer compartments are not suitable for freezing fresh food.
If the refrigerator is left empty for a long period of time, switch it off, let it defrost, clean it, dry it and leave the door open to prevent mold from forming in the appliance.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before use, remove all packing materials, including bottom cushions, foam pads, and tapes inside of the freezer; tear off the protective film on the doors and the freezer body.
Keep away from heat and avoid direct sunlight. Do not place the freezer in moist or watery places to prevent rust or reduction of insulating effect.
Do not spray or wash the freezer; do not put the freezer in moist places easy to be splashed with water so as not to affect the electrical insulation properties of the freezer.
The freezer is placed in a well-ventilated indoor place; the ground shall be flat, and sturdy (rotate left or right to adjust the wheel for leveling if unstable).
The top space of the freezer shall be greater than 70 cm, and The freezer should be placed against a wall with a free distance of more than 20 cm to facilitate heat dissipation.

Note: Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and accessories with lukewarm water and a little detergent to remove the typical smell of the new product. Dry the interior and all parts carefully afterward.
You can set the temperature with the control knob on the thermostat. The further you move the knob towards level “3”, the lower the temperature. This setting is usually sufficient. The temperature is highest at level 1 and lowest at level 4. The actual temperature depends on the amount of food and how often the door is opened. To save electricity, we recommend that you do not overfill the appliance and that you open the door as seldom as possible.

CLEANING AND CARE

Defrosting the freezer
Over time, the freezer becomes increasingly covered with ice. The ice should be removed regularly. Never use sharp metal tools to scrape office, as this could damage the unit. If the ice layer becomes very thick, proceed as follows:

Disconnect the plug from the socket.
Remove all food, wrap it in several layers of newsprint and store it in a cool place.
Leave the door open and place a drip pan under the unit to collect the condensation.
Dry the interior thoroughly after defrosting.

In case of a power failure
In the event of a power outage, the chilled food will last for several hours. In this case, open the freezer as rarely as possible and do not add any other food.
If you do not use the freezer for a longer period of time
Unplug the power cord and clean the unit. Leave the door open to avoid unpleasant odors.
If you need to move the freezer
Before moving the unit, remove all food in it. Secure all moving internal parts with adhesive tape and screw the leveling feet completely into the device. Close the door and tape it in place.
Note: The unit must not be transported upside down or horizontally. Avoid shocks and do not tilt the unit more than 45°.
