These warnings are provided to improve safety, and should

be read carefully before installing or using your freezer.

This freezer is only intended for the freezing and storage

of food.
This freezer should only be operated by adults. Children

must not be allowed to tamper with the control buttons or

play with the freezer.
Changes in the electrical mains system in connection

with the installation of this freezer should always be

carried out by an authorised electrician or competent

person.
Do not under any circumstances attempt to repair the

freezer yourself. Repairs carried out by untrained people

may result in personal injury or serious malfunction of the

freezer.
Service of the freezer should be carried out by an

authorised service company, and only original spare

parts should be used. See under “Guarantee Conditions

and Service”.
It is dangerous to alter the freezer specifications, or to

change the freezer in any other way.
Make sure that the freezer is not placed on top of the

mains cable.
Do not re-freeze food once it has been defrosted.
Observe the recommendations for storage carefully. See

under “Helpful Hints”.
This freezer includes components that are heated during

operation. Consequently, adequate ventilation must

always be provided. If ventilation is insufficient defects

may occur, resulting in the loss of food. See under

“Installation”.
The inside of the freezer contains pipes through which

coolant flows. If these pipes are punctured the freezer

may be damaged beyond repair, and food may be lost.

Do not use sharp  implements to remove frost or ice.

Frost can be removed using the enclosed scraper. Do

not knock ice off the sides of the freezer, but remove it

by defrosting the freezer. See under “Maintenance”.

Do not place drinks in the freezer. Bottles and cans

containing carbonic acid or sparkling drinks are

particularly prone to explosion, which may damage

the freezer.
This freezer is heavy. Take care when moving it.
If the freezer is fitted with a lock to prevent tampering

by children, the key must always be kept safely out of

the reach of children, and far away from the freezer.
Before disposing of an old freezer, make sure that the

lock (if present) no longer works. This is to prevent

accidents and avoid the danger of children getting

locked inside.
Ice lollies can cause frostbite if eaten direct from the

freezer.
Your appliance contains an environmental friendly

natural gas, isobutane (R600a) as refrigerant, which

is nevertheless flammable. 
During transportation and installation of the

appliance, be sure that none of the components of

the cooling circuit become damaged.
If any part of the cooling circuit damaged:

– avoid naked flames and sources of ignition;
– thoroughly  ventilate the room in which the

appliance is installed.

When disposing of your old fridge, freezer or

fridge/freezer:
Check with your local Council or Environmental Health

Officer to see if there are facilities in your area for

collecting the gas from the appliance for recycling. This

will help reduce the amount of CFC gas released into the

atmosphere.
Help to keep your country tidy - when disposing of an old

appliance or a CFC free appliance use an authorised

disposal site.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT

It is vital that these instructions are kept with the

to another user, or if you move and leave the freezer

behind, you must ensure that the instructions

accompany the freezer to enable the next user to

use the freezer correctly and read the relevant

warnings.
