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 by adults only to store
and freeze food products 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 when barefoot or with
wet or damp 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.
• Always switch the appliance off and disconnect it
from the electrical supply before cleaning it or
carrying out maintenance work. It is NOT sufficient
to hold the ON/OFF button down for more than two
seconds to eliminate all electrical contact.
• In case of 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 inside the compartments
other than the special scraper provided.
• Do not put ice cubes taken directly from the freezer

Disposal

• Observe local environmental standards when
disposing of packaging material as some of this
material may be recycled.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
requires that old household electrical appliances
must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted
municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be
collected separately in order to optimise the
recovery and recycling of the materials they contain
and reduce the impact on human health and the
environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol
on the product reminds you of your obligation, that
when you dispose of the appliance it must be
separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct
disposal of their old appliance.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
• Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room.
Ensure that it is protected from direct sunlight and
do not place it near sources of heat.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods.
A significant amount of energy is used every time
the door is opened.
• Do not over-fill the appliance: cold air must circulate
freely for food to be preserved properly. If air
circulation is impeded, the compressor will work
continuously.
• Do not place hot food in the refrigerator. The internal
temperature will increase, forcing the compressor to
work harder and consume more energy.
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are free of debris and to prevent cold air
from escaping ( see Maintenance ).
