[. . . ] Any damage must be reported to the dealer within 24 hours of delivery of the appliance.

Installation and the electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified technician, according to the manufacturer's instructions and local safety regulations. Clean the inside of the appliance before using it. SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT 1. [. . . ] • Do not use mechanical, electric or chemical means other than those recommended by the Manufacturer to speed up the defrost process. • Do not damage the appliance refrigerant circuit pipes. • Do not use or place electrical appliances inside the product if they are not of the type expressly authorised by the Manufacturer. • This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they don't play with the appliance. • This appliance is not designed for use by young children or the infirm without supervision. • To avoid the risk of children becoming trapped and suffocating, do not allow them to play or hide inside the appliance. • Do not swallow the contents (non-toxic) of the ice packs (where provided). • Use the refrigerator compartment to store fresh food only and the freezer compartment to store frozen food, to freeze fresh food, and to make ice cubes only. • Do not store glass containers with liquids in the freezer since they may burst. • Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer since they may cause cold burns. • Place the ice packs (if supplied) above the food stored in the top compartment. • In models with ice packs, in the event of a power failure, place the ice pack/s above the food stored in the top compartment, in order to optimise the rising time and therefore maintain correct food preservation. Important: The table alongside shows the recommended maximum storage time for frozen fresh foods. Declared performance refers to appliance operation without ice packs, with the exception of the rising time. MONTHS FOOD Classification of frozen foods Put the frozen products into the freezer and classify them. The storage date should be indicated on the packs, to allow use within expiry dates. 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. • If food has defrosted even partially, do not re-freeze it. • Avoid, or reduce temperature variations to the minimum. Respect the best-before date on the package. [. . . ] The water will automatically fill the ice cube trays. • Wait for a few hours for the ice to be ready, then turn the knobs to extract the ice cubes. The ice cubes will fall directly into the ice bin. Attention: • make sure there are no ice cubes in the tray before refitting the feeder. [. . . ]
