ATTENTION: Lire l’ensemble des instructions avant d’utiliser
l’appareil. Lors de l’utilisation de cet appareil,
prendre toutes les mesures de sécurité de base, y
compris les suivantes:
REMARQUE: Si le réfrigérateur a été placé en position horizontale ou
en position inclinée, que ce soit pour longtemps ou non,
attendez 24 heures avant de brancher l’appareil.
1) N’utiliser cet appareil que pour l’usage prévu, tel que décrit dans ce
guide d’utilisation et d’entretien.
2) Ce réfrigérateur doit être correctement installé, conformément aux
instructions d’installation avant d’être utilisé. Voir les instructions de
mise à la terre dans la section Installation.
3) Ce réfrigérateur ne doit être ni encastré, ni enclos dans un placard. Il
est uniquement conçu pour être installé tel qu’il se présente.
4) Ne jamais tirer sur le cordon d’alimentation pour débrancher le
réfrigérateur. Toujours saisir fermement la fiche et la tirer tout droit
hors de la prise.
5) DANGER: Risque d'incendie ou d'explosion due à la tuyauterie de
réfrigérant de piqûre. Réfrigérant inflammable utilisé. N'utilisez pas les
instruments en métal pour dégivrer le réfrigérateur. Ne perforez pas la
tuyauterie réfrigérante.
6) Si un ancien réfrigérateur n’est pas utilisé, nous recommandons d’en
retirer les portes afin de réduire le danger qu’il peut représenter pour
les enfants.
7) ATTENTION:
Une fois le réfrigérateur en fonctionnement, ne pas
toucher les surfaces froides du congélateur,
particulièrement avec des mains mouillées ou humides.
La peau peut adhérer à ces surfaces extrêmement froides.
8) Ne pas recongeler les aliments qui ont été complètement décongelés.
Le bulletin maisons et jardins du ministère de l’agriculture des États-
Unis no. 69 stipule : « ..Les aliments congelés peuvent être recongelés
en toute sécurité s’ils contiennent toujours des cristaux de glace ou si
leur température est toujours inférieure à 4,5 °C (40 °F) ».
« …Les viandes hachées, la volaille et le poison présentant une odeur
ou une couleur suspecte ne doivent être ni recongelés, ni mangés.
La crème glacée dégelée doit être jetée. Tout aliment présentant une
odeur ou couleur douteuse doit être jeté cas son ingestion pourrait être
dangereuse.»
CONSIGNES GÉNÉRALES DE SECURITÉ 2
« …La décongélation ou la recongélation, même partielle réduit la quali
é gustative des aliments, en particulier des fruits, légumes et plats
préparés. La qualité gustative des viandes rouge est beaucoup moins
aectée que celle de nombreux autres aliments. Utiliser les aliments
recongelés dès que possible, afin de conserver un maximum de leur
qualité gustative. »
9) Ne pas utiliser d’appareils électriques ou d’objets acérés pour dégivrer le
réfrigérateur.
10) Débrancher le réfrigérateur avant de le nettoyer ou d’eectuer toute
réparation. Remarque: si, pour une raison quelconque, ce produit devait
