The Chest Freezer should be solidly positioned on the floor in a dry, well ventilated area
away from heat sources such as stoves, geysers and direct sunlight and in such a way
that air flow through the grill is not restricted. Placing it in a warm room, or near a heat
source will increase the energy consumption and shorten the product life. This Chest
Freezer was designed to operate at an ambient temperature b10 degrees C and
+32 degrees C. If the ambient temperature is below or above this range, the temperature
inside the Chest Freezer may vary.
Please observe the following minimun distances: 100 cm from coal or oil type cookers

Ensure free circulation of air around the Chest Freezer by observing the correct
distances.
