∙ This appliance is not intended for
commercial use, nor for use in the
catering business or similar wholesale
environments.
∙
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 transportation 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.
∙ If the unit is sold, handed over to
a third party or disposed of at a
suitable recycling facility, attention
must be drawn to the presence of
the refrigerant R600a. For additional
information on correct recycling refer
to the Disposal section.
∙ This appliance is not designed for the
storage of explosive substances such
as aerosol cans with a flammable
propellant.
∙ 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.
∙ This appliance may be used by
children (at least 8 years of age) and
by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or
lacking experience and/or knowledge,
provided they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning
the use of the appliance and fully
understand all dangers and safety
precautions involved.
∙ Children must not be permitted to
carry out any cleaning or maintenance
work on the appliance unless they
are supervised and at least 8 years of
age.
∙ The appliance and its power cord must
be kept well away from children under
8 at all times.
∙ Children must not be permitted to play
with the appliance.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from
children – these are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the main body
including the power cord as well as any attachment fitted
should be checked thoroughly for any defects. Should
the appliance, for instance, have been dropped onto a
hard surface, or if excessive force has been used to pull
the power cord, it must no longer be used: even invisible
damage may have adverse effects on the operational
safety of the appliance.
∙ Avoid switching the appliance on and off unnecessarily.
To prevent damage to the compressor, always wait for at
least 5 minutes between switching on and off.
