loss. See installation instructions.

The cooling plate or refrigerated freezer shelves in
this appliance contain channels through which the
refrigerant passes. If these are punctured this would
cause substantial damage to the appliance and re-
sult in food loss. DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRU-
MENTS to scrape off frost or ice. Under NO circum-
stances should solid ice be forced off the lining or
shelves. Solid ice should be allowed to thaw, when
defrosting the appliance. See Defrost instructions.
The appliance should be left for 2 hours after instal-
lation before it is turned on in order to allow the re-
frigerant to settle.
This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands
are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions
or "frost/freezer burns".
Ice lollies can cause "frost/freezer burns" if con-
sumed straight from the freezer.
Manufacturers' storage recommendations should
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to re-
pair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious
