Safety instructions (continued)
If there’s a power cut, avoid opening the refrigerator frequently or putting unchilled
food in it.
This can cause the temperature in the refrigerator to rise and spoil food stored inside.
If you’re not going to use the refrigerator for a long time, unplug it from the mains.
Also, be careful of the gap between the fridge and freezer doors, especially if they are
both open at the same time.
This may cause personal injury.
When opening the refrigerator, be careful not to pinch your ngers at the “pinch point”
areas. In particular, when opening the fridge door, be careful to avoid the potential
pinch point between the fridge and freezer doors.
This can cause personal injury.

Before disposing of your old appliance
Please follow either the disposal instructions from the manufacturer of the old appliance, or local disposal
regulations for the appliance. Where this is not available, please follow the three step instructions below.
1. Remove the mains plug from the socket.
2. Cut the mains lead off, and safely dispose of it with the mains plug still attached.
3. Until the old appliance is collected, or you take it to a Recycling Centre, make sure it’s out the
reach of small children.
Remove all sealing materials from the door and leave all the shelves and drawers in place.
This way, children are less likely to climb in and become trapped.
