User manual AEG-ELECTROLUX ARC0945-5I

[. . . ] These operating instructions are for use with several technically comparable models with varying accessories. Please observe the notes which apply to your model. Notes which are important for your safety or for the proper functioning of the appliance are stressed with a warning triangle and/ or with signal words (Warning!, Caution!, Attention!). This symbol guides you step by step in the operation of the appliance. [. . . ] Do not store containers with flammable substances, such as aerosol cans, refill cartridges for cigarette lighters etc. Bottles and cans may not be placed in the freezer compartment. They can burst when the contents freeze - or even explode if the contents contain carbonic acid Never place sodas, juices, beer, wine, champagne etc. Exception: Spirits with high alcohol content may be stored in the freezer compartment. Do not place ice cream or ice cubes directly from the freezer compartment into the mouth. Very cold ice can freeze to the lips or tongue and cause injury. Never touch frozen goods with wet hands. Do not operate any electrical appliances in the freezer (e. g. electric ice cream makers, mixers etc. ). Before cleaning the appliance always disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. When unplugging always pull the plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable. The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification: Climate classification SN N ST T for an ambient temperature of +10 to +32 °C +16 to +32 °C +18 to +38 °C +18 to +43 °C Defrosting Whilst in operation and when the lid is opened, the moisture inside the freezer forms hoar frost. Remove this hoar frost from time to time with a soft plastic scraper, e. g. Do not under any circumstances use hard or pointed objects for this purpose. Defrost the freezer when the layer of hoar frost has become 4 mm thick. Models with a low frost system do not need to be defrosted as often, as in the case of these appliances ice and hoar frost take longer to build up in the freezer. The minimum frost system is maintenance free throughout the entire service life of the appliance. A convenient time for defrosting is any time when the appliance is empty, or only minimally loaded. Do not use electrical heating appliances or any other mechanical or artificial devices to speed up the defrosting process, with the exception of those recommended in these operating instructions. Do not use defrosting sprays, because they may be a health hazard and/or contain substances damaging to plastics. Do not touch frozen goods with wet hands Hands can freeze to the goods, and cause low temperature skin burns. Remove frozen goods, pack them in several layers of newspaper, cover them and store them in a cool place, e. g. [. . . ] Insert the mains plug of your chest freezer into the mains supply. The green mains operating light (2) and red temperature warning light (4) show, and the acoustic temperature warning (5) sounds. The green mains operating light indicates operation and must continuously show. The red temperature warning light tells you that the storage temperature has not yet been attained. [. . . ]
