2. GENERAL WARNINGS

A blast chiller is a household appliance used for rapidly

lowering temperatures, rapidly freezing foods and rapidly

cooling drinks.

Products which are rapidly cooked and chilled with the blast

chiller, maintain their initial high quality for 5/7 days while

rapidly frozen foods, once they have been defrosted, do not

collapse and maintain their consistency and original flavour.

The appliance must only be for lowering the temperature of

foodstuffs and only for domestic use.

The appliance is only to be used for its designed purpose, that

is, freezing/chilling foods.

Any other use is therefore considered improper and

potentially dangerous.

The blast chiller has been designed NOT to be used

continuously; therefore, for it to function correctly and

efficiently, it is advisable to switch the appliance off after a

maximum of two cycles, and leave the door open for around

30/40 minutes so that any ice which has formed can

evaporate.

After having removed the packaging, ensure that the appliance

is in good working order; if this is not the case, please advise

the retailer.

Packaging materials (sheets, polystyrene) may be hazardous

to children (danger of suffocation). Keep packaging materials

out of the reach of children.

Before starting to position and install the appliance, check that

the power and voltage data for the electricity supply stated on

the matriculation plate correspond to those at the installation

site.

If a malfunction should occur, switch off the appliance and

interrupt all the connections.

Keep children within sight, in order to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,

or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been

given supervision or instruction concerning use of the

appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play

with the appliance.
