2. First Steps

Upon receiving your Refrigerator, please check:

If damage has occurred during shipment;

That the doors open and close freely;

That the door seals are tight throughout their entire

contour;

• 

That the accessories (see Parts List) are in perfect

working condition.

In case of trouble, please contact your dealer.

Withdraw from the Refrigerator the bag containing 

plastic caps spacers and leveling legs;

Reinstall the leveling legs to half their length;

If not avoided,  this situation will result in death
or serious injury.

If not avoided, this situation may result in death
or serious injury.

If not avoided, this situation might result in light
to moderate injury.

Put the plastic caps over the leveling legs;

Carefully lift the Refrigerator to its normal position;

Clean the Refrigerator with a damp cloth and then wipe it
dry with a clean cloth. If need be, use a mild detergent,
but do not use cleaning compounds or other abrasive
material.

Fit two ordinary 1.5 volt (size D) batteries in the lighting
assembly (fig. A). Check its functioning: the light should
go out before the door is completely closed.

2.1 Where to locate your Refrigerator

The Refrigerator must be installed on a flat and level
floor, away from direct sunlight and from any object which
may radiate heat. The location should be well ventilated
but not drafty. Please also consider the following
important requirements:

Never install your Refrigerator directly
on carpets or next to flammable
materials (such as curtains or wall
paper)

If ventilation in the room is not adequate, the
Refrigerator may produce carbon monoxide.  
The inhalation of that gas, which has no odor
and color, may cause dizziness, nausea, and
in extreme cases even death.

b) The Refrigerator must be installed with the following

minimum clearances.
Right side and top 

6 in.

150mm

Left side and rear 

0 in.

0mm

c) If the Refrigerator is to be built-in, please refer to the

specifications (item 8) for enclosure dimensions.

d) Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible

materials, gasoline and other flamable vapors and
liquids.

e) Do not  obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation

air.

Place the Refrigerator in the selected location contacting
the rear wall and the wall at the left (if any).
The Refrigerator is now ready to be leveled and
connected to the propane outlet. We recommend that
these jobs, as well as the eventual inversion of the door
hinges, be entrusted to qualified service personnel for
whom the following item was conceived. It might be
