Safety

The safety aspects of our appliance comply with accepted technical stan-
dards and the German Appliance Safety Law. Nevertheless, we consider it
our obligation to make you aware of the following safety information:

Intended use

• The appliance is intended for use in the home. It is suitable for the coo-

ling, freezing and storing of frozen food, as well as for making ice. If the
appliance is used for purposes other than those intended or used incor-
rectly, no liability can be accepted by the manufacturer for any damage
that may be caused.

• Alterations or changes to the appliance are not permitted for reasons of

safety.

• If you use the appliance in a commercial application or forpurposes other

than the cooling, freezing or frozen storage of foods,please observe all
valid legal regulations for your application.

Prior to initial start–up

• Check the appliance for transport damage. Under no circumstance should
a damaged appliance be plugged in! In the event of damage, please contact
the vendor.

Refrigerant

The refrigerant isobutane (R600a) is contained within the refrigerant circuit
of the appliance, a natural gas with a high level of environmental compa-
tibility, which is nevertheless flammable.
• During transportation and installation of the appliance, be certain that

none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged.

• If the refrigerant circuit should become damaged:
– avoid open flames and sources of ignition;
– thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is situated.

Safety of children

• Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene) can be dangerous for children. There is

a risk of suffocation! Keep packaging material away from children!

• Please make old appliances unusable prior to disposal. Pull out the mains

plug, cut off the mains cable, break or remove spring or boltcatches, if fit-
ted. By doing this you ensure that children cannot lock themselves in the
appliance  when  playing  (there  is  risk  of  suffocation!)or  get  themselves
into other dangerous situations.

•  Often  children  cannot  recognise  the  hazards  present  in  household

appliances. It is therefore important that you ensure adequate supervision
and never let children play with the appliance!

screws are properly tightened and that the magnetic seal adheres to the
cabinet. If the ambient temperature is cold (i.e. in Winter), the gasket may
not fit perfectly to the cabinet. in that case, wait for the natural fitting of
the gasket or accelerate this process by heating up the part involved with a
normal hairdrier.
