Important
•
If you've bought this appliance to replace an old
one equipped with a lock that cannot be opened
from inside (lock, bolt), make sure that the lock is
broken. This will make it impossible for the
children to lock themselves in the appliance and
suffocate.
•
Mind to connect the appliance correctly to the
mains supply (see Connection to the Mains
Supply).
•
Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the
appliance operates, especially not with wet
hands, because the skin might stick to the cold
surfaces.
•
Do not freeze bottled drinks, especially not fizzy
ones such as mineral water, sparkling wine,
beer, cola etc., because liquid expands during
freezing and the glass bottle is very likely to blow
up.
•
Never try to eat frozen food (bread, fruit,
vegetables), because you may get frostbites.
•
Carefully check the foods for color and smell and
if you are in doubt about their quality, throw them
away because they may be spoiled and
therefore dangerous to eat.

repairing (only a qualified technician should
repair it) and before cleaning.

devices (hair dryer etc.) and never scrape the ice
or frost layer with sharp tools. Use only enclosed
tools or tools recommended by the

careful not to damage the rear wall of the
appliance (the condenser unit or the tubes - for

of the refrigerating system inside the appliance.
•
The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled
with refrigerant and oil, so when the appliance is
damaged, handle it with care and dispose it of in

precautions. (See We Care for the Environment).
•
Heating element incorporated in the appliance,
all around the rim, is controlled by the operation
of the compressor and it prevents the door
gasket to freeze on to the freezer compartment.

Storing Time During Power Supply
Interruption
Avoid opening the freezer in case of failure or
power supply interruption! In case the interruption
is extended over longer period of time (16 hours
for ZOS 0721/6, 19 hours for ZOS 1051/6), take
food out of the freezer and use it, or make sure it
remains well cooled (perhaps you have an extra
appliance).
Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance
•
When your appliance finally wears out, dispose it
of. If the appliance has a lock, break it, in order
to prevent eventual accidents (danger of children
get locked inside the appliance).
•
The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled
with refrigerant and insulating substances which
should be separately treated and processed.
Call your nearest authorised service agent or
specialised servicing centre. If you don't find
one, contact your local authorities or your
distributor. Be careful not to damage the tubes
on the rear wall of the appliance (danger of
pollution).
