Installation
- Place the refrigerator directly on a firm, flat surface to avoid
vibration and noise.
- The appliance should be situated away from heat, direct
sunlight, heaters and the like.
- Avoid placing it on balconies, verandas and terraces. High
summer heat and strong winter cold can prevent the product
from working correctly or even damage it.
- This product is designed to operate optimally at room
temperature. This is known as being designated for a certain
climate class. This is clearly stated on the label plate located
inside the product at the bottom of the left side wall. Above and
below these temperatures, the product’s performance will be
reduced.

- Make sure to keep a distance of 3-5 cm along the sides of
the refrigerator and other furniture, or 10 cm if the appliance is
installed against a wall, and 10 cm above the refrigerator to
ensure good air circulation around the product. Choose a dry,
well-ventilated location in a non-corrosive environment.
- Place the product at a suitable distance from the wall using the
spacers supplied in the accessories bag. The spacers should be
installed behind the product.
When the product is installed, set the legs so that the product is
slightly tilted backwards: this will facilitate closing of the door.
Before placing food in the product, it must be cleaned inside and out
with baking soda dissolved in water (1 tablespoon of baking soda to
4 liters of water). Do not use alcohol, abrasives or clean- ing agents
as these may damage the surfaces.
Adjusting the hinge
Occasionally, the door and the panel of the door are not attached to
form a straight line. In this case, slightly loosen the screw that holds
the cover on the upper hinge. Tighten the screw again and check
whether the door seal is fully closed.
Removable handle
Unscrew the handle from the left side and place it on the right. Use
the handle to locate the markings for the new holes (2.5 mm
diameter) to attach the handle.
If the doors already have holes in both sides:
Remove the plugs which conceal the handle screws and the plugs
that conceal the holes in the opposite side. Screw the han- dle off
and place it on the other side. Screw the handle in and insert the
plugs in so they hide the screws and holes.
Electrical connection
For security reasons, it is imperative that the following recom-
mendations be observed.
The electrical installation must comply with French standard NF C
15-100, especially regarding grounding.
A 3x2, 5mm single-phase line of 230V connected with:
- A single-phase meter 230V-50Hz
- A differential switch and a fuse (10 or 16A depending on
model).
We cannot be held liable for accidents caused by improper elec-
trical installation.
Advice for the electrical installation of the cooling / refrigerator:
- Do not use an extension cord, adapter or power strip.
- Never remove the ground connection.
- The plug must be easily accessible, but outside the reach of
children.
Please consult a qualified electrician if you have any questions or
concerns.
Clean the refrigerator for the first time before connecting to the
grid. The plug must be pulled out of the socket before carrying out
any maintenance. Do not pull the cord. Instead, grasp the plug to
pull it out of the socket.
If the feed cable is damaged, it must be replaced by technical
service or by a person with equivalent qualifications in order to
avoid hazards.
The product complies with the European Directive CEE / 73/23
(Low Voltage) and CEE / 89/336 (electromagnetic compatibility)
and CEE / 96/57 (energy efficiency) as amended.
