Any electrical work required to install
this appliance should be carried out by a

specifically for the storage of edible
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.
There are working parts in this product
which heat up. Always ensure that there
is adequate ventilation as a failure to do
this will result in component failure and
possible food loss. See installation
instructions.
Parts which heat up should not be
exposed. Wherever possible the back of
the product should be against a wall.
Before any cleaning or maintenance work
is carried out, be sure to switch off the
appliance and unplug.
The inner lining of the appliance consists
of channels through which the refrigerant
passes. If this should be punctured this
would damage the appliance 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.
The appliance should be left for 2 hours
after installation before it is turned on in
order to allow the refrigerant to settle.
Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks
in the freezer as it creates pressure on
the container, which may cause it to
explode, resulting in damage to the
appliance.
This appliance is heavy. Care should be
taken when moving it
Ice lollies can cause frost bums if
consumed straight from the freezer.
Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
