Safety Information

Before installing and using the appliance read this user's
instruction book carefully. It contains safety precautions,
hints, information and ideas. If the freezer is used in
compliance with the instructions written, it will operate
properly and provide you with greatest satisfaction.
These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You
must read them carefully before installing or using the
appliance.

Use the freezer only for storing frozen food, freezing
fresh food and making ice cubes.

Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after
taking them out of the freezer, since they may cause
frost burns.

Do not allow children to play or hide inside the freezer,
since they may become trapped inside and suffocate.

Do not store glass containers with liguids in the freezer,
since they may burst.

Ensure that the freezer is not resting on the power
supply cable.

Before servicing or cleaning, always unplug the
appliance or disconnect the power supply.

Do not use other electrical appliances (such as ice
cream makers) inside the appliance.

Your appliance contains an environmentally friendly
natural gas, isobuthane (R600a). Caution is required
however, since isobuthane is flammable. Therefore it is
essential to ensure that the refrigerant pipelines are not
damaged.

It is most important that this instruction book should be
retained with the appliance for future reference.

Installation

Wait at least 2 hours before connecting the freezer to
the power supply to ensure the refrigerant circuit is fully
efficient.

Install the freezer in a dry, well ventilated room. Avoid
locations near a source of heat or in direct sunlight.

The room temperature should correspond to the
climatic classification for which the freezer was
designed, see chapter "Technical data".

Place the freezer horizontally on a firm surface, resting
on all four feet.

For optimum operation and in order to avoid damage
when the lid is opened, leave a space of at least 5 cm
from the rear wall and 5 cm at the sides.

Before connecting the freezer to the power supply,
ensure that the voltage corresponds to that indicated in
chapter "Technical data" under "Voltage".

Danger!

Ensure that the freezer is not resting on the power
supply cable.

Do not remove the power supply cable by pulling on its
lead, particularly when the freezer is being pulled out
of its niche.

If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Ensure that the power plug is not squashed or
damaged by the back of the freezer.

There must be adequate ventilation around the
appliance.

Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by an authorised engineer.

Electrical connection 

The appliance is supplied with a 13amp plug fitted. In the
event of having to change the fuse in the plug supplied, a
13amp ASTA approved (BS1362) fuse must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason. The
wires in the power supply cable are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
