Safety

The safety of our freezers is in accordance with recognised technological

standards and appliance safety legislation. We nevertheless feel that it is

important to acquaint you with the following safety guidelines:

Use for Intended Purpose

and storage of frozen food. The manufacturer assumes no liability for

damages occurring through improper operation or use of the appliance

for unintended purposes.

check the freezer for transport damage. Do not under any

circumstances connect a damaged appliance! Please contact your
