FM5 Page 5 Friday, January 7, 2000 6:58 PM PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS • • • Do not cover or obstruct the air vent of the appliance. Do not store liquids in glass containers in the freezer: risk of bursting. Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer: risk of “cold” burns. Do not allow children to play or hide inside the freezer: risk of becoming trapped inside and suffocating. [. . . ] Do not store food beyond the storing limit line in the models in which the line is provided - see figure C in the chapter “Freezing food”. ADVICE FOR STORING FROZEN FOOD When purchasing frozen food products: • ensure that the packaging is not damaged (frozen food in damaged packaging may have deteriorated). If the package is swollen or has damp patches, it may not have been stored under optimal conditions and defrosting may have already begun. • When shopping, leave frozen food purchases until last and transport the products in a thermally insulated cool bag. • Once at home, place the frozen foods immediately in the freezer. • Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum. Respect the best-before date on the package. • Always observe the storage information on the package. Note: Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately. Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it has thawed. If there is a long power failure: • do not open the freezer lid except to place ice packs (if available) over the frozen foods on the right and left of the freezer. This will slow down the temperature increase speed. 6 Black Process Plate 42007aGB. FM5 Page 7 Friday, January 7, 2000 6:58 PM A B Cyan Process Plate 42007aGB.

[. . . ] Ensure that the defrosting water drainage plug is correctly positioned (C). Ensure that the lid seal is not damaged: to remove any deformation, warm the seal with a hair dryer. Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, ensure that the voltage corresponds to that given on the rating plate (see figure below). After the freezer has been installed, check that it is not resting on the mains cable. [. . . ]
