Safety instructions

DANGER! Electrocution hazard

On boats: If the device is powered by the mains, ensure that the power supply has a residual current device (RCD), a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB), or a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Installation, especially in potentially damp areas, must be by all applicable installation regulations.
Do not touch exposed cables with your bare hands. This applies especially when operating the device from the AC mains.
Before starting the device, ensure that the power supply line and the plug are dry.

WARNING! Explosion hazard
Do not store any explosive substances such as spray cans with a flammable propellant in the cooling device.

WARNING! Elecotrocution hazard

Do not operate the cooling device if it is visibly damaged.
If the cooling device’s power cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a suitable power cable or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent to prevent safety hazards.
This cooling device may only be repaired by qualified personnel. Improper repairs can lead to considerable hazards.
Plug the device to sockets that ensure proper connection especially when the device needs to be earthed.

WARNING! Fire hazard

When positioning the cooling device, ensure that the supply cord is not trapped or damaged.
Do not locate multiple portable socket outlets or portable power supplies at the rear of the device.
The refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit is highly flammable and in the event of a leakage combustible gases could build up if the appliance is in a small room. In the event of any damage to the refrigerant circuit:
Keep open flames and potential ignition sources away from the refrigerator.
Ventilate the room well.
Switch off the refrigerator.
For cooling devices with R600a refrigerant: The refrigeration circuit contains a small quantity of an environmentally friendly but flammable refrigerant. It does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect. Any leaking refrigerant may ignite.
Keep the ventilation openings on the device housing or in installations free of obstructions.
Do not use any mechanical objects or other means to speed up the defrosting process, unless they have been recommended by the manufacturer for this purpose.
Do not open or damage the refrigerant circuit.
Do not use electrical devices inside the cooling device unless they are recommended by the manufacturer for that purpose.

WARNING! Health hazard

This cooling device can be used by children aged 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the cooling device in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
