Safety
For children
Avoid accidents. After unpacking the refrigerator, keep packaging materials
out of reach, especially from children.
Do not allow children to handle the refrigerator, even when it is disconnected.
For the user / installer
Disconnect the refrigerator before cleaning or doing maintenance.
Do not leave the refrigerator unused for long periods of time. If this becomes
necessary, clean it, open the doors, and leave them open. We recommend
that the refrigerator be turned on several times during the period it is not in
normal use. Do not install the refrigerator outside.
The following items should not be place on top of the refrigerator: heavy and
unstable objects, and heat-producing devices like regulators.
Wait at least 5 minutes after unplugging the refrigerator before plugging it in
again to protect the compressor from excessive pressure.
Never unplug the refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Use the plug.
Do not compress, fold or tie up the power cord. Do not change your
refrigerator's plug. If the cord becomes damaged, it must be replaced by a
service technician indicated by the manufacturer or distributor.
Do not store medication, toxic or chemical products in the refrigerator, as they
may contaminate the food.
Flammable aerosols and combustible products (gas for lighters, banana oil,
alcohol, gasoline, propane, etc.) or products that bear a small flame symbol
should not be stored in refrigerators or freezers, nor come close to the
refrigerator, as they may cause explosions.
Never lean on the refrigerator door, as this may cause the hinges to become
misaligned, allowing the cold air to escape and the refrigerator to operate
poorly.
Avoid contact with the cold plate / internal walls of the freezer compartment
when your hands are wet or damp. The low temperatures may injure your skin.
Do not sprinkle water on top or along the sides of the refrigerator, as this can
cause a malfunction or electric discharge and may cause the metallic parts of

the refrigerator to rust. To avoid the risk of fire, never place lit candles on top of
the refrigerator.
In the event of a gas leak, do not unplug or touch the refrigerator until the gas
valve has been closed, and the room has been aired out. If you use the
thermostat immediately afterward, it may give off sparks that could start a fire.
When moving the refrigerator, do not incline it at more than a 45° angle.
Keep the cord away from the compressor, as the compressor heats up when it
is operating, and may damage the cord, which could cause a short circuit.
