•
Do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity.
See data under "Technical Data" and on the rat-
ing label.
•
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 15 hours, the
food will not be affected.
•
Do not eat food that is still frozen. Do not 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.
