out the plug, switch off or remove the fuse.
• When disconnecting the appliance, pull on the plug, not on the

• Any repairs and work on the appliance should only be carried
out by the customer service department, as unauthor ised work
could prove highly dangerous for the user. The same applies to
changing the mains power cable.
• Do not allow naked flames or ignition sources to enter the appli-
ance. When transporting and cleaning the appliance ensure that
the refrigerant circuit is not damaged. In the event of damage,
make sure that there are no ignition sources nearby and keep the
room well ventilated.

port anything else.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including chil-
dren) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge unless they have been given initial
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Avoid prolonged skin contact with cold surfaces or chilled/frozen
food. This could cause pain, numbness and frostbite. In the case
of prolonged skin contact, protective measures should be taken,
e.g. gloves should be worn.
• Do not eat ice cream, particulary ice lollies or ice cubes, imme-
diately after taking them from the freezer compartment as there
is a risk of "burning" because of the very cold temperatures.
• Do not consume food which has been stored for too long, as it
could cause food poisoning.

making ice and is intended for domestic use. If used for commercial

such sprays by the printed contents or a flame symbol.
• Do not use electrical appliances inside the appliance.
• The appliance is designed for use in enclosed areas. Do not
operate the appliance outdoors or in areas where it is exposed
to splash water or damp conditions.
