Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury.
■
The appliance is heavy and bulky. Ask
another person to help with moving
and installation.
■
Bases, drawers, doors, etc. must not
be used as steps or for support pur-
poses.
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).
■
Remove the stored frozen food from
the appliance – even when only
switching off the appliance tempo-
rarily – and store it in a suffi ciently
cool place or in another refrigerating
appliance.
■
Consume thawed and defrosted
foods immediately; do not refreeze.
■
After a possible power failure, check
whether the stored foodstuffs are still
edible.
■
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
ambient temperature (see “climate
classes” in the 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.
■
Do not put ice cubes or ice cream
straight into your mouth from the
freezer compartment.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to property!
If the appliance has been transported
horizontally, lubricant from the
compressor may make its way into the
cooling circuit.
■
If possible, do not tilt the appliance
horizontally.
■
Allow the appliance to stand upright
for two hours before starting it up.
The lubricant will flow back into the
compressor during this time.
