To avoid contamination of food respect
the following instructions:
∙ Opening the door for long periods can
cause a signifi cant increase of the
temperature in the compartments of
the appliance.
∙ Clean regularly surfaces that can
come in contact with food and
accessible drainage systems.
∙ Store raw meat and fi sh in suitable
containers in the refrigerator so that it
is not in contact with or drip onto other
food.
∙ 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.
Storing food
Main cabinet
∙ Different areas of the refrigerator
cabinet are affected differently by the
cooling effect. The warmest area is
around the door in the higher part of
the cabinet, the coldest around the
rear wall and in the lower part of the
cabinet.
∙ The food should therefore be stored
as follows:
∙ On main cabinet shelves (from top to
bottom): bakery items, ready meals,
dairy products, meat, fi sh and cold
meats/sausages.
∙ In the vegetable compartment:
vegetables, salad and fruit.

∙ In the door (from top to bottom): butter,
cheese, eggs, tubes (eg mustard),
small bottles, large bottles, milk and
fruit-juice tetra-packs.
∙ To prevent the risk of personal injury or damage to the
unit, it must only be transported while in its original
packaging. Two people are required for unpacking and
installation.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from
children: there is a risk of suffocation.
∙ The ice removed from the unit during de-frosting or
cleaning is not suitable for human consumption.
∙ The power cord should be regularly examined for any
signs of damage. In the event of such damage being
found, the appliance must no longer be used.
∙ To avoid the risk of fi re, do not place any electric
appliances on top of the unit. Do not place liquid
containers on top of the unit, to prevent any leaking or
escaping liquid damaging the electrical insulation.
∙ This unit is designed for storing food only.
∙ Alcoholic substances may be stored only in properly
sealed containers and in upright positions.
∙ Do not store any glass bottles containing liquids,
especially carbonated ones, which are liable to freeze in
the freezer compartment: such bottles may burst during
the freezing process.

after its storage time has expired. Thawed foods must
not be frozen a second time.
∙ Do not lean or put undue weight on the shelves,
compartments, door etc.
∙ Protect the inside of the refrigerator at all times from
open fl ames and any other sources of ignition.

- in case of any malfunction,
- before de-frosting,
- during cleaning,
- before maintenance or repair work is carried out.
∙ When removing the plug from the wall socket, never pull
on the power cord; always grip the plug itself.
∙ We reserve the right to introduce technical modifi cations.
