Precautions and tips

!

 

The appliance was designed and manufactured in

compliance with international safety standards. The

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

Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;

- 2002/96/CE..

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 devices or tools other than the special scraper

provided inside the 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

).
