Installation
Space requirements
• Door opening: Place the unit so there
is enough space for the doors to open
easily (Fig. 1).
• Clearances: Ensure that air can
circulate freely around the back of the
cabinet, which is necessary to cool the
compressor and condenser. Allow at
least 5 cm at the sides of the unit.
• Overhanging wall units: To ensure best
performance, if the appliance is positioned below an overhanging wall unit, the
minimum distance between the top of the cabinet and the wall unit must be at least
10 cm. Ideally, however, the appliance should not be positioned below overhanging
wall units.
Levelling
The appliance must be installed level so that
it can work properly and the magnetic doors
seals are properly aligned. To level the unit, tilt
it slightly backward, then adjust the two levelling
feet at the front of the cabinet until the unit is
level (Fig. 2).
Electrical connection
•
WARNING!
It must be possible to disconnect
the appliance from the mains power supply;
the plug must therefore be easily accessible
after installation.
•
Before plugging in your new fridge, let it stand upright for at least 4 hours.
This will allow the refrigerant gases to settle into the compressor and reduce the
possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system.
• The appliance must be earthed. The plug of the power supply cord is equipped
with a contact for this purpose. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third (earth) prong from the power cord. If the plug does not fit your outlet, consult a
licensed electrician for advice to have the outlet changed.
• Plug the unit into a dedicated, properly installed and earthed wall outlet.
• Secure the power supply cord behind the unit. Do not leave it exposed or dangling
to prevent injury and accidental disconnection from the power supply.
• Adjust the temperature control as described on page 10.
•
When first starting up, and after a period out of use, allow the unit to cool
down on the MAX setting for at least 2 hours before placing food in the fridge.
