temperature in the compartments of
the appliance. Do not leave the door
open for a long time.
If the refrigerating appliance is left
■
empty for long periods, switch off,
defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door
open to prevent mould developing
within the appliance.
Incorrect handling, insuffi cient cool-
ing or overlapping items can spoil the
stored food. This could lead to a risk of
food poisoning when consumed!
In particular, pack raw meat and fi sh
■
carefully to ensure that adjacent
food cannot be contaminated by sal-
monella or similar bacteria.
Abide by the storage times recom-
■
mended by food manufacturers.
Note that the shelf life of the frozen
■
food may be shortened due to a rise
in the temperature inside the appli-
ance (from defrosting, cleaning or
power failure).
In the event of a power failure, the
■
frozen food will stay adequately
cooled for some time (see 'Product
data sheet in accordance with EU Di-
rective No. 1060/2010' at the end
of this user manual). In case of pro-
longed power failure or malfunction
of the appliance, remove the stored
frozen food from the appliance and
store it in a suffi ciently cool place or
in another refrigerating appliance.
After a malfunction, check wheth-
■
er the stored food is still edible. Con-
sume thawed and defrosted foods
immediately, do not refreeze.
Use only drinking water to make ice
■
cubes.
For your safety
Health hazard!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if the ambient temperature exceeds
or falls below the specifi ed temperature
range for a prolonged period. This can
then lead to an increase in temperature
inside the appliance.
Always adhere to the prescribed
■
ambient temperature (see "climate
classes" in the data sheet at the end
of this user manual).
Risk of injury from frozen goods!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in injury. There is a risk of
burns caused by low temperatures.
The food and the inside walls of the
■
freezer have a very low temperature.
Never touch them with wet hands.
This can cause injury to the skin. Skin
damage can occur even with dry skin.
Let ice cubes or ice lollies thaw a lit-
■
tle before eating, do not put into your
mouth straight from the freezer area.
Risk of damage
NOTICE
If the freezer has been transported hori-
zontally, lubricant from the compressor
may make its way into the cooling cir-
cuit.
If possible, transport the appliance
■
only in a vertical position.
Allow the appliance to stand for ap-
■
prox. two hours after transport and
before connecting. This allows the lu-
bricant enough time to fl ow back into
the compressor.
