Dear Customer,
Before using the appliance, the user must read the following instructions carefully.
Connection to the mains supply
The appliance should only be connected to an earthed socket installed in accordance with the
regulations. Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on the rating
label. This product complies with all binding CE labelling directives.
●
Do not operate this unit by means of a transformer or, together with other electrical appliances,
by means of an extension cable.
●
To prevent noise vibration, ensure that the power cord does not touch any part of the rear of the
unit (e.g. the heat-exchanger).
General information
This appliance is a compressor refrigerator with two separate cooling facilities, designed for short-
term storage of food in the refrigerator cabinet and long-term storage in the freezer.
The unit is rated as climate category 'N' (normal) and designed for domestic use. It complies with all
relevant norms for domestic refrigeration appliances.
Important safety instructions
●
To prevent the risk of personal injury or damage to the freezer, the unit must only be transported
while in its original packaging. For unpacking and installation, two people are needed.
●
The cooling circuit in this appliance contains the refrigerant isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas with a high level of environmental compatibility,
which is nevertheless flammable. Ensure, therefore, that none of the
components of the refrigerant circuit become damaged during transport and
installation of the appliance. If damage to the cooling circuit does occur, do
not switch on or connect the appliance to the mains power. In the case that
there is an open fire or any other sources of ignition in the vicinity of the refrigerant gas, make
sure it is removed immediately from this area and that the room is then thoroughly ventilated.
●
Warning: Do not damage the cooling circuit. Any escaping refrigerant causes damage to the
eyes; there is also a danger of the gas igniting.
●
Warning: Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear
of obstruction. Sufficient ventilation must be ensured at all times.
●
Warning: Do not use any external device (e.g.; heaters or heating fans) to accelerate de-frosting;
follow only the methods recommended in this manual.
●
The ice removed from the unit during de-frosting is not suitable for human consumption.
●
Warning: Do not operate any electrical appliances (e.g. ice makers) inside the freezer's food
storage compartment that are not specifically permitted in these instructions.
●
Before it is connected to the mains power, the unit must be thoroughly checked for transport
damage, including its power cord.
●
The power cord should be regularly examined for any signs of damage. In the event of such
damage being found, the appliance must no longer be used.
●
To avoid the risk of fire, do not place any thermo-electric appliances on top of the unit. Do not
place any liquid containers on top of the unit, to avoid any leaking or escaping liquid damaging
