Service / Repair
ª Any electrical work required to install this 
appliance should be carried out by a qualified 
electrician or competent person.
ª This appliance should be serviced by an 
authorized Service Centre, and only genuine spare 
parts should be used.
ª Under no circumstances should you attempt to 
repair the appliance yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may 
cause injury or more serious malfunctioning. Refer 
to your local Service Centre, and always insist on 
genuine spare parts.
ª This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its 
cooling unit; maintenance and recharging must 
therefore only be carried out by authorized 
technicians.
Use
ª The domestic refrigerators and freezers are 
designed to be used specifically for the storage of 
edible foodstuffs only.
ª Frozen food must not be re-frozen once it has been 
thawed out.
ª Manufacturers’ storage recommendations should 
be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant 
instructions.
ª The inner lining of the appliance consists of 
channels through which the refrigerant passes. If 
these should be punctured this would damage the 
appliance beyond repair and cause food loss.
DO NOT USE SHARP INSTRUMENTS to scrape 
off frost or ice. Frost may be removed by using the 
scraper provided. Under no circumstances should 
solid ice be forced off the liner. Solid ice should be 
allowed to thaw when defrosting the appliance. 
See defrost instructions.
ª Do not place carbonated or fizzy drinks in the 
freezer as it creates pressure on the container, 
which may cause it to explode, resulting in 
damage to the appliance.
ª Do not use a mechanical device or any artificial 
means to speed up the thawing process other than 
those recommended by the manufacturer.
ª Never use metal objects for cleaning your 
appliance as it may get damaged.
It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. 
Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the 
appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can be 
acquainted with the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.
These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You must read them carefully before installing or 
using the appliance.
