[. . . ] In the event of damage please contact your retailer. Installation This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken when moving it. It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way. Ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a cable available from your local Service Force Centre. [. . . ] Do not open the lid frequently or leave it open longer than is necessary. Important Do not put carbonated liquids in the freezer. Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer can cause a low temperature skin burn. Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or frost/freezer burns. In the event of a power cut, do not open the lid. The food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and the freezer is full. Should the food begin to thaw it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen. (See Hints and Tips) 6 Baskets The baskets are designed for the storage of food which has already been frozen. The handles can be placed in two positions, as shown. The baskets can either be placed inside the freezer or hung on the edge of the casing. The following spare parts can be ordered from your local Service force Centre. Please note that 2 handles must be ordered for each basket. Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours. Never exceed the storage times indicated by the manufacturer. Energy Saving Advice Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a boiler or radiator. Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated room and make sure that the opening of the appliance is not obstructed. Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages before placing them in the freezer. Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should be placed in the fridge before being transferred to the freezer. Try to avoid keeping the lid open for long periods or opening the lid too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the lid from closing properly. 8 Defrosting The freezer compartment will become progressively covered with frost. This should be removed with the special plastic scraper provided, (Models EC2609M & EC3309S only), whenever the thickness of frost exceeds ¼". During this operation it is not necessary to switch off the power supply or to remove the foodstuffs. However, when the ice becomes very thick on the inner liner, complete defrosting should be carried out and it is advisable to perform this operation when the appliance is empty. Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply. [. . . ] Home visits are made between 8. 30am and 5. 30pm Monday to Friday.
