Safety
Seite GB-8
■
Bases, drawers, doors, etc. must not
be used as steps or for support pur-
poses.
■
Do not place heavy objects on the ap-
pliance, as they could fall down and
cause injuries.
■
Take care to prevent the risk of trip-
ping when laying the mains cord.
Health hazard!
Incorrect handling, insuffi cient cool-
ing or overlapping items can spoil the
stored food. This could lead to a risk of
food poisoning when consumed!
■
In particular, pack raw meat and fi sh
carefully to ensure that adjacent
food cannot be contaminated by sal-
monella or similar bacteria.
■
Abide by the storage times recom-
mended by food manufacturers.
■
Note that the shelf life of the frozen
food may be shortened due to a rise
in the temperature inside the appli-
ance (from defrosting, cleaning or
power failure).
■
In case of prolonged power failure
or appliance malfunction, remove
stored frozen food from the appli-
ance and store it in a suffi ciently cool
place or in another refrigerating ap-
pliance (maximum storage time in
case of malfunction: 13 hours).
■
After a malfunction, check wheth-
er the stored food is still edible. Con-
sume thawed and defrosted foods
immediately, do not refreeze.
■
Use only drinking water to make ice
cubes.
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. This
can then lead to an increase in temper-
ature inside the appliance.
■
Always adhere to the prescribed am-
bient temperature (see data sheet at
the end of this user manual).
Risk of injury from frozen goods!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury. There is a risk of
burns caused by low temperatures.
■
The food and the inside walls of the
freezer compartment have a very low
temperature. Never touch them with
wet hands. This can cause injury to
the skin. Skin damage can occur even
with dry skin.
■
Let ice cubes or ice lollies thaw a lit-
tle before eating, do not put into your
mouth straight from the freezer area.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the appliance has been transported
horizontally, lubricant from the com-
pressor may have gotten into the cool-
ing circuit.
■
Only transport the appliance in a ver-
tical position, where possible.
■
Allow the appliance to stand upright
for 2 hours before start-up. The lubri-
cant will fl ow back into the compres-
sor during this time.
