5 minutes for your safety ...Seite GB-8
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. This
can then lead to an increase in temper-
ature inside the appliance.
■ Always adhere to the prescribed am-
bient temperature (see 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 compartment 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.
NOTICE

If the appliance has been transported
horizontally, lubricant from the com-
pressor may have gotten into the cool-
ing circuit.
■ Only transport the appliance in a ver-
tical position, where possible.
■ Allow the appliance to stand upright
for 2 hours before start-up. The lubri-
cant will fl ow back into the compres-
sor during this time.
Improper handling of the appliance
can lead to property damage.
■ Do not use the door to pull or lift the
appliance.
■ The appliance must only be placed
on a level and fi rm surface. The sur-
face must be strong enough to sup-
port the appliance’s weight when ful-
ly laden.

to unpack it.
■ Do not use electrical appliances in-
side the appliance, unless they are of

burst the container.
■ Defrost the freezer compartment in
a timely manner, before it forms a
layer of ice and frost of more than 5
mm. Excessive ice formation increas-
es power consumption and the freez-
