tions contained in this manual.

it by more than 40° from the vertical
position. Should such a situation occur,
the appliance should be switched on
after minimum 2 hours from its re-
-placement in the right position (fig.2).
l
Pull the plug out from the mains soc-
ket before each maintenance ac-
tivity. Do not pull on the cord, but
hold the body of the plug instead.
l
The “cracking” sound, which the ap-
pliance may emit is caused by the
expansion and contraction of parts
as a result of temperature variations.
l
For safety reasons do not repair the
appliance yourself. Repairs car- ried out
by persons who do not have the requ-
ired qualifications may result in serious
danger for the user of the appliance.
l
Air the room in which the appliance is
placed for a few minutes (the size of
the room for a product containing iso-
buthane/R600a must be at least 4m3)
to avoid damage to the cooling system.
l
Do not refreeze partly thawed products.
l
Do not store beverages in bottles and
cans, especially carbonated be- ve-
rages, in the freezer chamber. The
cans and the bottles may explode.
l
Do not put frozen products, ta-
ken out directly from the fre-
ezer (lollies, ice cubes, etc.) into
your mouth, their low temperatu-
re may cause severe frost-bite.
l
Make sure you do not damage the co-
oling system, by puncturing the refrige-
i
rant pipes in the evaporator or breaking
the pipes. The refrige- rant is flammable.
If the refrigerant makes contact with the
eyes, rinse them with clean water and
call for medical assistance immediately.

cleaning, maintenance or moving,
the appliance must be completely
disconnected from power supply (by
pulling the plug out from the socket)
Anti-bacteria System
Antibacteria System protects foods and
products inside the refrigerator from bac-
teria and mould which may cause unple-
asant smells and shorten storage time.
Antibacteria System prolongs the freshness
of food. Special material used to const-
ruct the gasket of fridge prevents bacte-
rial, microorganism and mould growth.
