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

(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.

• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they

are free of debris and to prevent cold air from escaping (see

Maintenance).

Troubleshooting

If the appliance does not work, before calling for Assistance (see

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