Page EN-8 For your safety
Risk of injury!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury.
The appliance is heavy and bulky. Ask
■
another person to help with moving
and installation.
Bases, drawers, doors, etc. must not
■
be used as steps or for support pur-
poses.
Health hazard!
Contaminated foods can cause health
problems.
Opening the door for long periods can
■
cause a signifi cant increase of the
temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
Clean regularly surfaces that can
■
come in contact with food and acces-
sible drainage systems.
Store raw meat and fi sh in suitable
■
containers in the refrigerator, so that
it is not in contact with or drip onto
other food.
Two-star frozen-food compartments
■
are suitable for storing pre-frozen
food, storing or making ice-cream
and making ice cubes.
One-, two- and three-star compart-
■
ments are not suitable for the free-
zing of fresh food.
If the refrigerating appliance is left
■
empty for long periods, switch off,
defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door
open to prevent mould developing
within the appliance.
Health hazard!
Incorrect handling, insuffi cient cool-
ing or overlapping items can spoil the
stored food. This could lead to a risk of
food poisoning when consumed!
In particular, pack raw meat and fi sh
■
carefully to ensure that adjacent
food cannot be contaminated by sal-
monella or similar bacteria.
Abide by the storage times recom-
■
mended by food manufacturers.
Note that the shelf life of the frozen
■
food may be shortened due to a rise
in the temperature inside the appli-
ance (from defrosting, cleaning or
power failure).
Remove the stored frozen food from
■
the appliance – even when only
switching off the appliance tempo-
rarily – and store it in a suffi ciently
cool place or in another refrigerating
appliance.
Consume thawed and defrosted
■
foods immediately, do not refreeze.
After a possible power failure, check
■
whether the stored foodstuffs are still
edible.
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. This
can then lead to an increase in temper-
ature inside the appliance.
Observe the specifi ed ambient tem-
■
perature (see "climate category" line
on page EN-30).
