4. USE
4.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
•
On first use or after a long period of downtime: run the appliance for at least four hours at position 'Super'
before placing products in the freezer. After 24 hours, set the temperature control between 'Normal' and 'Max'.
•
The appliance may not operate optimally (risk of thawing or too high a temperature in the freezer) if it is in a
place where the ambient temperature is below the minimum of the temperature range for which the appliance
is designed for a longer period of time. The information about the temperature range (climate type) of the
appliance is stated on the type plate, which is explained in section 1.3.
•
The interior temperature may be affected by factors such as the location of the cooling unit, the ambient
temperature and the frequency with which the door is opened. Adjust the temperature setting if desired.
•
If vibration noise occurs because the appliance is positioned against the wall or if the wall becomes black due
to air circulation around the compressor, you should place the appliance away from the wall.
•
Do not place filled glass or can packages in the freezer to avoid breakage due to volume expansion.
•
Do not place electrical appliances in the freezer (such as ice cream machines) unless they are of a type
expressly declared suitable by the manufacturer.
•
Packaging with flammable gases or liquids may leak at low temperatures, do not store flammable gases or
liquids in the appliance.
•
Do not store containers containing flammable materials, propellant or explosive substances such as aerosols,
refill cartridges for fire extinguishers, etc. in the appliance.
•
Do not place carbonated or sparkling drinks in the freezer compartment.
•
Do not use the appliance if any of its components are damaged or faulty. Replace a damaged or faulty
appliance immediately. Remove the plug from the earthed socket and contact customer service.
•
Only use the power cable installed on the appliance from the factory. Do not change the power cable. The
power cable may only be replaced by an authorised service technician.
•
Never use the appliance in a damp room, such as a bathroom, or in the vicinity of a bath, shower or swimming
pool.
•
Before use, check that the voltage on the socket you want to use matches that on the type plate of the appliance
(220-240V~ 50Hz). Only connect the appliance to an earthed power socket. Damage caused by faulty voltage
is not covered by the guarantee.
