Risk of injury from frozen goods!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury. Risk of burns caused
by low temperatures.
■
The food and the inside walls of the
freezer unit have a very low temper-
ature. 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 lollies
straight from the freezer into your
mouth.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the cooling unit has been transported
on its end, lubricant from the compres-
sor may get into the cooling circuit.
■
Where possible, keep the cooling unit
level when transporting it.
■
Allow the cooling unit to stand for 2
hours before start-up. The lubricant
will fl ow back into the compressor
during this time.
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to property damage.
■
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 objects to unpack
the appliance.
■
Only electrical parts that conform to
the manufacturer’s recommended
design may be used inside the appli-
ance.
■
Do not use any mechanical devices or
means other than those recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
■
Do not place any heat-emitting appli-
ances such as microwaves or toasters
on the chest freezer. Make sure that
the ventilation slots are not covered.
■
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 and the lid may no
longer close tightly.
■
Do not use any means other than
those recommended by the manufac-
turer to speed up defrosting. For ex-
ample, do not use any electric heat-
ing equipment, knives or devices with
an open fl ame such as a candle. The
thermal insulation and the interior
are scratch and heat-sensitive and
can melt.
■
When cleaning, please note:
–
Never use harsh, granular, soda,
acid, solvent-based or abrasive
cleaners. These attack the plastic
surfaces. All-purpose cleaners with
a neutral pH are recommended.
–
Cover seals and plastic parts are
sensitive to oil and grease. Remove
contaminants as quickly as possi-
ble.
