Respecting The Environment And Saving Energy - Brandt UL2320 Operating And Installation Instruction

Respecting the environment and saving energy

To reduce your appliance's electrical consuption:
- Install it in a suitable place (see "Installation
of your appliance" section).
- Leave the door open as little as possible. Do
not place food that is still hot in your freezer,
particularly in the case of soups or dishes that
release a lot of steam.
- Ensure that you appliance operates optimally
by not allowing too much frost to build up in
the freezer (de-frost it when the frost is more
than 5-6 mm thick) and clean its condenser
periodically (See the "Ongoing maintenance of
your appliance" section).
- Periodically check the door seal and make
sure that the door close firmly. If they do not,
lease contact our After-sales service.
In compliance with the latest legislation
concerning environmental protection, your
appliance does not contain any CFCs. Instead
it uses a gas called R600a. The exact type of
refrigerant used in your appliance is also clear-
ly indicated on the identification plate inside
your appliance, low down on the left-hand
wall.
R600a is a non-polluting gas that does not
harm the ozone layer and whose contribution
to the greenhouse effect is virtually zero.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
This appliance's packaging material is recycla-
ble. Help recycle it and protect the environ-
ment by dropping it off in the municipal
receptacles provided for this purpose.
Your appliance also contains a
great amount of recyclable materi-
al. It is marked with this label to in-
dicate that in countries that are a
members of the European Union
the used appliances should not be mixed with
other waste. This way, the appliance recycling
organised by your manufacturer will be done
under the best possible conditions, in compli-
ance with European Directive 2002/96/EC on
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment.
Contact your town hall or your retailer for the
used appliance collection points closest to your
home.
We thank you doing your part to protect the
environment.
