following warnings are provided for safety reasons and
must be read carefully.
This appliance complies with the following
Community Directives:
- 73/23/EEC of 19/02/73 (Low Voltage) and
subsequent amendments;
-89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic

General safety
The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
The appliance must be used to store and freeze food
products by adults only and according to the instructions
in this manual.
The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the
appliance exposed to rain and storms.
Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with wet or
moist hands and feet.
Do not touch the internal cooling elements:
this could
cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns.
When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from
the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.
Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the
appliance and disconnect it from the electrical supply. It is
not sufficient to set the temperature adjustment knobs on
(appliance off) to eliminate all electrical contact.
In the case of a malfunction, under no circumstances
should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause
injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.
Do not use any sharp or pointed utensils or electrical
equipment - other than the type recommended by the
manufacturer - inside the frozen food storage
compartments.
Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer into
your mouth.
Do not allow children to tamper with the controls or play
with the appliance. Under no circumstance should they be
allowed to sit on the bins or to hang from the door.
Keep packaging material out of the reach of children! It can
become a choking or suffocation hazard.
Disposal
Observe local environmental standards when disposing
packaging material for recycling purposes.
En base a la Norma europea 2002/96/CE de Residuos
de aparatos Eléctricos y Electrónicos (RAEE), los
electrodomésticos viejos no pueden ser arrojados en los
contenedores municipales habituales; tienen que ser
recogidos selectivamente para optimizar la recuperación
y reciclado de los componentes y materiales que los
constituyen, y reducir el impacto en la salud humana y
el medioambiente. El símbolo del cubo de basura
tachado se marca sobre todos los productos para
recordar al consumidor la obligación de separarlos para
la recogida selectiva.
El consumidor debe contactar con la autoridad local o
con el vendedor para informarse en relación a la
correcta eleminación de su electrodoméstico viejo.
Respecting and conserving the environment
Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room.
Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight and do
not place it near heat sources.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or
opening the door too frequently in order to conserve
energy.
Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air
must circulate freely for food to be preserved properly. If
circulation is impeded, the compressor will work
continuously.
Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The
internal temperature will increase and force the
compressor to work harder and will consume more
energy.
Defrost the appliance if ice forms (
see Maintenance
). A
thick layer of ice makes cold transference to food
products more difficult and results in increased energy
consumption.
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure
they are free of debris and to prevent cold air from
escaping (
see Maintenance
).
