Page EN-8 Safety
■ 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!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if the ambient temperature exceeds
or falls below the specified temperature
range for a prolonged period. This can
then lead to an increase in temperature
inside the appliance.
■ Always ensure the prescribed ambi-
ent temperature is maintained (see
"Intended use" on page EN-4).
Incorrect handling, insufficient cool-
ing or overlapping items can spoil the
stored food. This could lead to a risk of
food poisoning when consumed!
■ Pay attention to the star classifica-
tions in the freezer and the resulting
storage periods for freezer products.
■ 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 may remain sufficiently cold for
some time (see "Storage time in the
event of a power failure" on the type
plate of the appliance). In case of pro-
longed power failure or malfunction
of the appliance, remove the stored
frozen food from the appliance and
store it in a sufficiently cool place or
in another cooling appliance.
■ After a malfunction, check wheth-
er the stored food is still edible. Con-
sume thawed and defrosted foods
immediately, do not refreeze.
■ Use only potable water to make ice
cubes.
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 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.
The improper handling of the ice maker
can lead to injury.
■ Do not use delicate glasses or cups to
catch the ice. These could break as a
result of the difference in tempera-
ture, which could in turn result in in-
jury.
Risk of injury!
The frozen food's very low temperatures
can freeze the hands, lips or tongue.
■ Do not put ice cubes, crushed ice or
ice lollies straight into your mouth
from the freezer.
■ Do not touch the frozen food and
freezer's interior walls with wet hands.
NOTICE
Fire hazard!
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to fire and property damage.
■ Connect the appliance only to a prop-
erly installed and earthed electric
socket.
