General safety

• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home

and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.

• The appliance must be used to store and freeze food products by

adults only and according to the instructions in this manual.

• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered

areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed

to rain and storms.

• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or moist

hands and feet.

• Do not touch the internal cooling elements: this could cause skin

abrasions or frost/freezer burns.

• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from the

mains socket, do not pull on the cable.

• Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the appliance

and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It is not sufficient to set

the TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knobs on OFF (appliance off)

to eliminate all electrical contact.

• In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances should you

attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by

inexperienced persons may cause injury or further malfunctioning

of the appliance.

• Do not use any sharp or pointed utensils or electrical equipment -

other than the type recommended by the manufacturer - inside the

frozen food storage compartments.

• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into your

mouth.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or lack of experience

and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or

instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person

responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to

ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can become

a choking or suffocation hazard.

Disposal

• Observe local environmental standards when disposing packaging

material for recycling purposes.

• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and

Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical

appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal

waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in

order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they

contain and reduce the impact on human health and the

environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product

reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the

appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should

contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning

the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the environment

• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room. Ensure

that it is protected from direct sunlight and do not place it near heat

sources.

• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening the

door too frequently in order to conserve energy.

• Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air must circulate

freely for food to be preserved properly. If circulation is impeded,

the compressor will work continuously.

• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The internal

temperature will increase and force the compressor to work harder

and will consume more energy.

• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance). A thick layer

of ice makes cold transference to food products more difficult and

results in increased energy consumption.

Assistance), check for a solution from the following list.
