Hints and Tips
Do not place the appliance on its side or upside down. Pay particular attention to
this when the appliance is being moved.
Ventilation grilles must not be obstructed.
Do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
The appliance has internal moving parts. Do not open the Cover when it is
connected to the electricity supply and take particular care to prevent children
from getting access to or playing with the appliance. The ice making element
gets very cold and touching them could result in ice burns.
Do not use water that is below 8ºC (46ºF) as this may cause the ice cubes to
fuse into one large block of ice particularly if medium (M) or large (L) ice cube
size is selected. Always try small (S) ice cube selection as this may give cubes of
sufficient size.
As with all electrical appliances, if used outdoors ensure that it is protected from
the elements and use an earth leakage contact breaker for safety. Do not expose
the appliance to rain and do not use it or store it where it could get damp or wet.
Do not put the appliance near heat sources. In case of damage to the appliance
or its lead we advise not using the appliance and to return it for authorized repair
and parts replacement.
Using parts not recommended by the manufacturer can be dangerous. Only use
the appliance for its intended purpose, the production of ice cubes.
The refrigerant gas used in the appliance (R134a) is chemical waste. Disposal of
the appliance must be done in a proper environmentally friendly way. Inquire
about proper disposal with your municipal waste processing department.
