DANGER: Risk of child entrapment.
Before you dispose of your old refrigerator please remove doors but leave the shelves
in place so that children cannot climb inside.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by
a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapour and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance.
In the event of an electric short circuit, grounding (earthing) reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
In order to prevent possible electric shock this appliance must be earthed. Improper
connection of the earthing plug can cause electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or service engineer if the earthing instructions are not completely
understood, or if you have doubts as to whether the appliance is properly earthed.
Keep ventilation openings in the room where the appliance is installed clear of
obstruction.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting
process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.
Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage compartments of the
appliance, unless they are of the type recommended by the manufacturer.
Disposal procedures. If disposing of this appliance, please consult with a service
agent or a similarly qualified person for more details.
This appliance may contain (Check the rating/compliance label for the refriger-
ant type and amount. Applicable to some models only) a small amount of
isobutane refrigerant (R600a),
natural gas with high environmental compatibility, but it is also combustible.
When transporting and installing the appliance, care should be taken to ensure
that no parts of the refrigerating circuit are damaged. Refrigerant squirting out
of the pipes could ignite or cause an eye injury. If a leak is detected, avoid any
naked flames or potential sources of ignition and air the room in which the
appliance is standing for several minutes.
In order to avoid the creation of a flammable gas air mixture if a leak in the
refrigerating circuit occurs, the size of the room in which the appliance may be
sited depends on the amount of refrigerant used. The room must be 1m
for every 8g of R600a refrigerant inside the appliance. The amount of refriger-
ant in your particular appliance is shown on the identification plate inside
the appliance. Never start up an appliance showing any signs of damage. If in
doubt, consult your dealer.
