Pay particular attention to messages that follow this safety alert symbol 
or the words 

DANGER

WARNING

 or 

CAUTION

. These words are used 

to alert you to a potential hazard that can seriously injure you and others. 
The instructions will tell you how to reduce the chance of injury and let 
you know what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

Refrigerant matters 

WARNING:

 Do not damage the refrigerant circuit! Never use an appliance with a 

damaged refrigerant circuit! 

If the refrigerant circuit becomes damaged during transport 

or installation, avoid proximity to open fires and all types of heat and ignition sources. 
Thoroughly ventilate the room in which the appliance is located. 
The room for installing the appliance must be at least 1m³ per 8g of refrigerant. 
The amount and type of refrigerant in the appliance can be found in the technical 
specifications on page 20 and on the appliance rating plate. It is hazardous for anyone 
other than an authorised service person to service this appliance. In Queensland, 
the authorised service person MUST hold a Gas Work Authorisation for hydrocarbon 
refrigerants to carry out servicing or repairs which involve the removal of covers.

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE 

Read this manual thoroughly before first use, even if you are familiar with this type of 
product. The safety precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and 
injury when correctly adhered to. Keep the manual in a safe place for future reference, 
along with the completed warranty card, purchase receipt and carton. If applicable, pass 
these instructions on to the next owner of the appliance. 

 This symbol alerts you to take care as the appliance contains flammable 
materials: isobutane as refrigerant and cyclopentane as insulation 
blowing gas. While isobutane (R600a) is a gas with a high level of 
environmental compatibility, it is nevertheless flammable. Do not expose 
the appliance to high heat, sparks and open flames.

Responsible disposal

At the end of its working life, do not throw this appliance out with your household waste. 
Electrical and electronic products contain substances that can have a detrimental 
effect on the environment and human health if disposed of inappropriately. Observe any 
local regulations regarding the disposal of electrical consumer goods and dispose of it 
appropriately for recycling and recovery of the refrigerant and blowing agent. 

WARNING! 

This refrigeration appliance contains flammable refrigerants and insulation 

blowing gases, which must be removed before disposal. Contact your municipal 
authorities for any codes or regulations concerning the disposal of such materials.

DANGER! 

Risk of child entrapment: 

When discarding this or another refrigerator, pull 

the plug out of the socket, cut the connection cable (as close to the appliance as you can) 
and remove the doors to prevent playing children to suffer electric shock or to get trapped 
inside the appliance. If the discarded appliance has a spring lock (latch) on the door or lid, 
make the spring lock unusable to prevent it from becoming a death trap for children.
