MEANING
MEANING
ATTENTION!
Do not remove, tamper with or make illegible the
safety, danger and instruction signs and labels
on the machine.
C.3.4 END OF USE
When the appliance is no longer to be used, make it unusable
by removing the power supply wiring.
C.3.5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE
Risks mainly of a mechanical, thermal and electrical nature are
present in the machine.
Where possible the risks have been neutralised:
• directly, by means of adequate design solutions,
• indirectly by using guards, protection and safety devices.
Any anomalous situations are signalled on the control panel
display.
During maintenance several risks remain, as these could not
be eliminated, and must be neutralised by adopting specific
measures and precautions.
Do not carry out any checking, cleaning, repair or maintenance
operations on moving parts.
Workers must be informed of the prohibition by means of clearly
visible signs. To guarantee machine efficiency and correct
operation, periodical maintenance must be carried out according
to the instructions given in this manual. In particular, make sure
to periodically check correct operation of all the safety devices
and the insulation of electrical cables, which must be replaced
if damaged.
ATTENTION!
Machine maintenance operations must only be
carried out by specialised Technicians provided
with all the appropriate personal protection equip-
ment (safety shoes, gloves, glasses, overalls,
etc.), tools, utensils and ancillary means.
ATTENTION!
Never operate the machine, removing, modifying
or tampering with the guards, protection or safety
devices.
ATTENTION!
Before carrying out any operation on the machine,
always consult the manual which gives the correct
procedures and contains important information
on safety.
C.3.6 REASONABLY FORESEEABLE IMPROPER USE
Improper use is any use different from that specified in this
manual. During machine operation, other types of work or
activities deemed improper and that in general can involve risks
for the safety of operators and damage to the appliance are not
allowed.
Reasonably foreseeable improper use includes:
• lack of machine maintenance, cleaning and periodical checks;
• structural changes or modifications to the operating logic;
• tampering with the guards or safety devices;
• failure to use personal protection equipment by operators,
specialised technicians and maintenance personnel;
• failure to use suitable accessories (e.g. use of unsuitable
equipment or ladders);
• keeping combustible or flammable materials, or in any case
materials not compatible with or pertinent to the work, near
the machine;
• wrong machine installation;
• placing in the machine any objects or things not compatible
with refrigeration, freezing or preservation, or that can dam-
age the machine, cause injury or pollute the environment;
• climbing on the machine;
• non-compliance with the requirements for correct machine
use;
• other actions that give rise to risks not eliminable by the
Manufacturer.
ATTENTION!
The previously described actions are prohibited!
C.3.7 RESIDUAL RISKS
The machine has several risks that were not completely
eliminated from a design standpoint or with the installation of
adequate protection devices.
Nevertheless, through this manual the Manufacturer has taken
steps to inform operators of such risks, carefully indicating the
personal protection equipment to be used by them.
Sufficient spaces are provided for during the machine installation
stages in order to limit these risks.
To preserve these conditions, the areas around the machine
must always be:
• kept free of obstacles (e.g. ladders, tools, containers, boxes,
etc.);
• clean and dry;
• well lit.
For the Customer’s complete information, the residual risks
remaining on the machine are indicated below: such actions are
to be considered incorrect and therefore strictly forbidden.
RESIDUAL RISK
DESCRIPTION OF HAZARDOUS
SITUATION
Slipping or falling The operator can slip due to water or dirt on
the floor.
Burns/abrasions
(e.g. heating
elements, cold
tray, cooling
circuit plates and
pipes)
The operator deliberately or unintentionally
touches some components inside the
machine without using protective gloves.
Electrocution
Contact with live parts during maintenance
operations carried out with the electrical
panel powered.
Falling from
above
The operator works on the machine using
unsuitable systems to access the upper part
(e.g. rung ladders, or climbs on it).
Crushing or injury
The specialised Technician may not
correctly fix the control panel when
accessing the technical compartment. The
panel could close suddenly.
Tipping of loads
When handling the machine or the packing
containing it, using unsuitable lifting systems
or accessories or with the load unbalanced.
Chemical
(refrigerant gas)
Inhalation of refrigerant gas. Therefore
always refer to the appliance labels.
