INSTALLATION
HOW TO STORE FOODS IN REFRIGERATOR
COMPARTMENT
Location
• Install the appliance in a dry, well-ventilated place. Ensure that
the appliance is level. Adjust the front feet if necessary.
• Make sure that your appliance is not near a heat source.
• Install and level the refrigerator on a floor strong enough to
take its weight and in an area suitable for its size and use.
• After installation, make sure that the appliance is not standing
on the power supply cable.
• Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the
built-in structure, clear of obstruction. To ensure proper
ventilation, leave a 1 cm space on both sides and 5 cm above
the refrigerator.
• The sides of some models are extended at the rear so the
appliance can be placed directly against the rear wall.
Otherwise, fit the spacers (if supplied and if not keep 4,5 cm
distance between the appliance and the wall) on the upper
part of the condenser at the rear of the appliance.
• Clean the inside (see chapter “Care and Maintenance”).
• Fit the accessories supplied.
• Remove the compressor locking pin (on selected models
only).
Electrical Connection
• Electrical connections must be made in accordance with local
regulations.
• Ensure that the voltage indicated on the appliance data plate
corresponds to the domestic supply voltage.
• If the plug and socket are not of the same type, have the
socket replaced by a qualified electrician
• Appliance is safe in case it is connected to the right socket
with earth. Regulations require that the appliance is earthed.
• The Manufacturer declines all liabilities for injury to persons or
animals or damage to proper resulting ty from failure to
observe these regulations.

Notes:
• The space between the shelves and the rear wall of the
refrigerator compartment must be unobstructed to allow
circulation of air.
• Do not place food in direct contact with the rear wall of the
refrigerator compartment.
• Do not place hot food in the refrigerator or freezer.
• Store liquids in closed containers.
Storing vegetables with a high water content can result in
condensation in the crisper container: this will not affect the
correct operation of the appliance.
