is carried out, be sure to switch off the appliance
and unplug it.
ª
Frozen food must NOT be re-frozen once it has

freezer as it creates pressure on the container,
which may cause it to explode, resulting in
damage to the appliance.
ª
The cooling plate or refrigerated freezer shelves
in this appliance contain channels through which
the refrigerant passes. If these are punctured
this would cause substantial damage to the
appliance and result in food loss. DO NOT USE
SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off frost or
ice. Under NO circumstances should solid ice be
forced off the lining or shelves. Solid ice should be
allowed to thaw, when defrosting the appliance.
See Defrost instructions.

installation before it is turned on in order to allow
the refrigerant to settle.

when moving it.
ª
Do not remove items from the freezer if your

abrasions or “frost/freezer burns”.

consumed straight from the freezer.
ª
Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant
