2. Belangrijke veiligheidsinstructies
Om het risico op brand, elektrische schokken of letsel bij het gebruik van uw ijsmachine te verminderen, dient u de volgende basisvoorzorgsmaatregelen in acht te nemen:
- Lees alle instructies vóór gebruik.
- Raak de verdamper of het ijsreservoir niet aan wanneer het apparaat in werking is.
- Dompel het apparaat, het netsnoer en de stekker niet onder in water of andere vloeistoffen.
- Wanneer een apparaat door of in de buurt van kinderen wordt gebruikt, is nauwlettend toezicht noodzakelijk.
- Haal de stekker van de ijsmachine uit het stopcontact wanneer u deze niet gebruikt en voordat u hem schoonmaakt.
- Gebruik geen enkel apparaat waarvan het snoer of de stekker beschadigd is, of nadat het apparaat defect is geraakt of op enigerlei wijze beschadigd is.
- Niet buitenshuis gebruiken.
- Do not place the ice maker on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
- Ensure proper ventilation: Allow at least 4 inches of clear space around the unit for adequate airflow.
- Use only potable (drinkable) water. Filtered water is recommended to prolong the life of the unit and improve ice quality.
- After transporting the unit, allow it to stand upright for at least 24 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant to settle.
