For Your Safety

For your safety, read the following advice:

The freezer cooling system contains a small amount of gas which is environmentally
friendly but flammable. To avoid any risk :-

Install the freezer following the installation instructions and ensure 
that ventilation openings are kept clear of obstruction.

Take care when installing or moving the freezer to avoid damaging 
the pipes on the rear.

If you suspect a leak, do not switch on the freezer, but open the 
windows and doors to ventilate the room.

Do not use any electrical devices inside the freezer, for instance for 
defrosting.

Do not use any mechanical devices for defrosting other than any which may 
have been supplied with the freezer, as they may cause damage.

Only use this freezer for storing domestic foodstuffs.

When installing your freezer :-

Ensure that the mains cable is not trapped underneath or behind the freezer 
when you install or move it.

Do not stack any other appliance on top of this  freezer as they may 
damage the freezer or become unstable.

When using your freezer :-

Do not sit or stand on top of your freezer.

Do not store poisonous, flammable or dangerous substances in your freezer.

Do not use aerosol sprays for defrosting or cleaning your freezer.

If you sell the freezer, pass on this booklet to the new owner.
