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 freez-
ing 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).
If there is a power failure, the frozen
■
food will remain suffi ciently chilled
for some time (see "storage times
in the event of a malfunction" at
page GB-31). In case of prolonged
power failure or malfunction of the
appliance, remove the stored frozen
food from the appliance and store it
in a suffi ciently cool place or in an-
other refrigerating appliance.
After a malfunction, check wheth-
■
er the stored food is still edible. Con-
Appliance parts / control elements
sume thawed and defrosted foods
immediately, do not refreeze.
Use only drinking water to make ice
■
cubes.
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.
Always abide by the prescribed am-
■
bient temperature (see the 'Climate
categories' line on page GB-31).
Risk of injury from frozen goods!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury. There is a risk of
burns caused by low temperatures.
The food and the inside walls of the
■
freezer compartment have a very low
temperature. Never touch them with
wet hands. This can cause injury to
the skin. Skin damage can occur even
with dry skin.
Let ice cubes or ice lollies thaw a lit-
■
tle before eating, do not put into your
mouth straight from the freezer area.
NOTICE

Risk of damage

If the cooling unit has been transport-
ed horizontally, lubricant from the com-
pressor may get into the cooling circuit.
Only transport the appliance in a ver-
■
tical position.
Allow the cooling unit to stand up-
■
right for 2 hours before start-up. The
lubricant will fl ow back into the com-
pressor during this time.
