•
Do not store bottles or cans. These can break when the contents freeze – or even explode, if they contain
carbonated drinks.
•
Once products have been defrosted halfway or completely, they should be consumed as soon as possible
and should not be frozen again, except they have been processed to a ready meal.
•
Do not open the door in case of power failure. If the failure does not take longer than 10 hours, the food will
not be affected.
•
Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not allow children to eat ice cream directly from the freezer. The cold
can cause injuries in the oral cavity.
•
Touching metal parts inside the appliance can cause symptoms similar to burns if the skin is very sensitive.
•
Never touch frozen food with moist or wet hands.
