which could safely be recycled, disposed off

whatsoever.
•
When your appliance finally wears out,
please try not to burden the environment with
it; call your nearest authorised service agent.
(See Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance).
Tips for Energy Savings
•
Try not to open the door too often, especially
when the weather is wet and hot. Once you
open the door, mind to close it as soon as
possible. This is especially important if you
have an upright model.
•
Every now and then check if the appliance is
sufficiently ventilated (adequate air
circulation behind the appliance).
•
Use higher temperature settings only when
required or recommended.
•
Before loading the appliance with packages
of fresh foods, make sure they are cooled to
ambient temperature.
•
If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that
the sealing is poor, the energy consumption
is substantially higher. To restore efficiency,
replace the gasket.
•
Always consider instructions stated in
sections Positioning and Energy Saving Tips,
otherwise the energy consumption is
substantially higher.
Important
•
If you have bought this appliance to replace
an old one equipped with a lock that cannot
be opened from inside (lock, bolt), make sure
that the lock is broken. This will make
it impossible for children to lock themselves
inside the appliance and suffocate.
•
The appliance must be correctly connected to
the mains supply. (see: Connecting to the
Mains Supply).
•
Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the
appliance operates, especially not with wet
hands, because the skin may stick to the cold
surfaces.
•
Do not freeze bottles containing liquid,
especially not soft drinks, such as mineral
water, sparkling wine, beer, cola etc.,
because liquid expands during freezing and
the glass bottle is very likely to blow up.
•
Do not eat frozen food (bread, fruit,
vegetables), because you can get frostbites.
•
If the food has strange smell or color, throw it
away, because it is very likely that it is
spoiled and therefore dangerous to eat.
•
Disconnect the appliance from the power
supply before repairing it (only a qualified
technician should repair it), before cleaning
and before replacing the light bulb.
•
Do not defrost the appliance with other
electric devices (hair dryer etc.) and never
scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp tools.
Use only enclosed tools or tools
recommended by the manufacturer.
•
For the sake of environment protection - be
careful not to damage the rear wall of the
appliance (the condenser unit or the tubes -
for example when moving the appliance) or
any part of the refrigerating system inside the
appliance.
•
The refrigerating system of the appliance is
filled with refrigerant and oil, so when the
appliance is damaged, handle it with care
and dispose it of in compliance with
environmental protecting precautions. (See
We Care for the Environment).
•
Heating element incorporated in the
appliance, all around the rim, is controlled by
the operation of the compressor and it
prevents the door gasket to freeze on to the
freezer housing.
•
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or his service
agent or a qualified person in order to avoid
hazard.
•
The rating plate is inside the appliance or
outside on the rear wall.
