Dear Customer,
Before using the appliance, the user should read the following instructions carefully.
Connection to the mains supply
The appliance should only be connected to an earthed socket installed in accordance with
the regulations. Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on
the rating label. This product complies with all binding CE labelling directives.
●
Do not operate this unit by means of a transformer or, together with other electrical
appliances, by means of an extension cable.
●
To prevent noise vibration, ensure that the power cord does not touch any part of the
rear of the unit (e.g. the heat-exchanger).
General information
This appliance is a compressor refrigerator, designed for short-term storage of food.
The unit is rated as Climate Class ‘N’ (Normal) and designed for domestic use. It complies
with all relevant norms for domestic refrigeration appliances.
Important safety instructions
●
To prevent the risk of personal injury or damage to the unit, it must only be transported
while in its original packaging. For unpacking and installation, 2 persons are needed.
●
The cooling circuit in this appliance contains the refrigerant isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas with a high level of environmental
compatibility, which is nevertheless flammable. Ensure, therefore,
that none of the components of the refrigerant circuit become
damaged during transport and installation of the appliance. If damage
to the cooling circuit does occur, however, do not switch on or connect
the appliance to the mains power. If there is an open fire or any other sources of ignition
in the vicinity of the refrigerant gas, make sure it is removed immediately from the area
and that the room is then thoroughly ventilated.
●
Warning: Do not damage the cooling circuit. Any escaping refrigerant causes damage to
the eyes; there is also a danger of the gas igniting.
●
Warning: Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in
structure, clear of obstruction. Sufficient ventilation must be ensured at all times.
●
Warning : Do not use any external device (e.g. heaters or heating fans) to accelerate de-
frosting; follow only the methods recommended in this manual.
●
Warning: Do not operate any electrical appliances (e.g. ice makers) inside the food
storage compartment.
●
Before it is connected to the mains power, the unit must be thoroughly checked for
transport damage, including its power cord.
●
The power cord should be regularly examined for any signs of damage. In the event of
such damage being found, the appliance must no longer be used.
●
To avoid the risk of fire, do not place any thermo-electric appliances on top of the unit.
Do not operate electric water kettles on top of the unit, in order to avoid liquid boiling
over and damaging the electrical insulation.
