This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling
unit; maintenance and recharging must therefore
only be carried out by authorized technicians.
Use
The domestic refrigerators and freezers are desi-
gned to be used specifically for the storage of edi-
ble foodstuffs only.
Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been
thawed out.
Manufacturers' storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.
The inner lining of the appliance consists of chan-
nels through which the refrigerant passes. If these
should be punctured this would damage the ap-
pliance beyond repair and cause food loss.
DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape off
frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using the
scraper provided. Under no circumstances should
solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be
allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance. See
defrost instructions.
Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the free-
zer as it creates pressure on the container, which
may cause it to explode, resulting in damage to the
appliance.
Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial me-
ans to speed up the thawing process other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
Never use metal objects for cleaning your appliance
as it may get damaged.
