shunts as these could cause overheating 
and a risk of burns.

• The plug must always be accessible when 

the appliance is installed.

• Leave the appliance standing vertically for 

at least two hours before turning it on for the 
first time.

• If it is necessary to replace the power cable, 

this must be performed by an authorised 
technician from Technical Support Service.

Positioning

Choice of location

Always install the appliance in a dry place with 
satisfactory ventilation. Depending on its climate 
class (stated on the nameplate inside the 
refrigerator compartment), the appliance can 
be used in different temperature conditions.
• Install the appliance at least 3 cm away 

from electrical or gas cookers and at least 
30 cm away from combustion heaters or 
radiators.

• The appliance must not be installed near 

heat sources. If this is not possible, suitable 
insulation must be used.

• If installed underneath wall units, at least 5 

cm clearance must be left.

• Ensure that the appliance is located with 

sufficient space for the door to open and for 
the internal drawers and shelves to be 
removed, if necessary.

Positioning

Position the appliance on a firm, level surface.
The appliance has two small wheels on the 
back to allow it to be moved and positioned 

more easily.

In any case, we recommend moving the 
appliance very carefully in order to avoid 
damaging the floor (especially in the case of 
wooden floors).
If the floor is not perfectly level, use the two 
adjustable feet on the front part of the 
appliance.

Level the appliance horizontally adjusting its 
feet. 

See General safety instructions.

Lean the appliance slightly towards the 
rear part to facilitate proper door

correctly, the door must be able to 
close properly. Ensure that the door 
seals close hermetically, especially at 
the corners.
