and not in the vicinity of the appliance.
•   The appliance might not operate consistently (possibility of defrosting of contents or 
temperature becoming too warm in the frozen food compartment) when sited for an 
extended period of time below the cold end of the range of temperatures for which the 
refrigerating appliance is designed.
• Do not store food which goes bad easily at low temperature, such as bananas, melons.

want to prevent an undue rise in the temperature of the frozen food while defrosting the 
appliance, please wrap the frozen food in several layers of paper such as newspaper.
• Any increase in temperature of frozen food during defrosting can shorten its storage life.safety informationSaving EnErgy TipS•  Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with adequate ventilation.
•  Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and never put it near a direct source of 
heat (radiator, for example).
•  Never block any vents or grilles on the appliance.
