Installation
!
Before operating your new appliance, please read these
operating instructions carefully. They contain important
information for safe use, installation and care of the
appliance.
!
Please keep these operating instructions for future
reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the
appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free
room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and
condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to
operate correctly and save energy.
3. Ensure the appliance is far away from any sources of
heat (direct sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
Electrical connections
After transportation of the appliance, carefully place it
vertically and wait at least 3 hours before connecting it to
the electricity mains. Before inserting the plug into the
electrical socket ensure the following:
The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with
the law.
The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located
on the bottom left side of the fridge (e.g. 150 W).
The voltage must be in the range between the values
indicated on the data plate located on the bottom left
side (e.g. 220-240V).
The socket is compatible with the plug of the
appliance.
If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an
authorised technician to replace it (
see Assistance
). Do
not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
!
Once the appliance has been installed, the power
supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily
accessible.
!
The cable must not be bent or compressed.
!
The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by
authorised technicians only (
see Assistance
).
!
The manufacturer declines any liability should
these safety measures not be observed.
