NOTICE
Risk of damage
If the appliance has been transported
horizontally, lubricant from the com-
pressor may make its way into the cool-
ing circuit.
■
As far as possible, transport the appli-
ance only in an upright position.
■
Allow the appliance to stand upright
for two hours before start-up. The lu-
bricant will fl ow back into the com-
pressor during this time.
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to property damage.
■
Do not pull or lift the appliance by its
doors or door handles.
■
The appliance must only be placed
on a level and fi rm surface. The sur-
face must be strong enough to sup-
port the appliance’s weight when ful-
ly laden.
■
Do not use sharp or pointed objects
to unpack it.
■
When unpacking the appliance, nev-
er damage the insulation material on
the back of the appliance.
■
Do not use any electrical parts inside
the appliance’s cooling chamber that
do not conform to the manufactur-
er’s recommended design.
■
Do not use any mechanical devices or
means other than those recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
■
The interior light must only be used
to illuminate the interior of the appli-
ance. It is not suitable for lighting a
room.
■
Do not store glass or metal contain-
ers containing water, lemonade, beer
etc. Water expands when frozen and
can burst the container.
■
Defrost the appliance in a time-
ly manner, before it forms a layer of
ice and frost of more than 5 mm. Ex-
cessive ice formation increases pow-
er consumption, the drawers become
diffi cult to open and the door may
not close completely.
■
Do not use any mechanical devices or
means other than those recommend-
ed by the manufacturer to acceler-
ate defrosting. For example, do not
use any electric heating equipment,
knives or devices with an open fl ame
(e.g. candles). The thermal insula-
tion and the interior are scratch and
heat-sensitive and can melt.
■
When cleaning, please note:
–
Never use harsh, granular, soda, ac-
id, solvent-based or abrasive clean-
ers. These attack the plastic sur-
faces. All-purpose cleaners with a
neutral pH are recommended.
–
Door seals and plastic parts are
sensitive to oil and grease. Remove
contaminants as quickly as possi-
ble.
–
Use only soft cloths for cleaning.
■
Wait 5 minutes after switching off.
Only then switch the appliance on
again.
■
Only use original accessories.
