Care before installation
Before installing the appliance and connecting it to the power, wash the interior and all internal
accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a
brand new product, then dry thoroughly.

Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners, they will damage the inside coating.
When using the appliance for the first time or after a period of non-use, before putting the food in
the compartment let the appliance run at least two hours on the higher settings.
Location
Warning!
Never expose the appliance to
a
naked flame
.

Install the appliance in a dry and well ventilated place.

The appliance should be located far from heat sources like radiators, boilers, sunlight, etc.

Your appliance is designed to function optimally at a given ambient temperature. In this case,
it is said to be designed for a particular "climate class". The climate class is clearly shown on
the ID plate (see the "Contact" chapter). The refrigerator may not maintain satisfactory inside
temperatures if it operates outside of the temperature limits set for the "climate class" it is
designed for. Ensure that the chosen location is compliant with these temperature limits:
Class Ambient temperature
SN This refrigeration appliance is designed for use at ambient temperatures between
10°C and 32°C
SN-ST
This refrigeration appliance is designed for use at ambient temperatures between
10°C and 38°C
SN-T
This refrigeration appliance is designed for use at ambient temperatures between
10°C and 43°C
N This refrigeration appliance is designed for use at ambient temperatures between
16°C and 32°C
ST
This refrigeration appliance is designed for use at ambient temperatures between
16°C and 38°C
T
This refrigeration appliance is designed for use at ambient temperatures between
16°C and 43°C

Based on the above, avoid locating your appliance on balconies, verandas, terraces, in
garages, etc. Excessively high temperature in summer and excessively low temperatures in
winter can prevent it from functioning properly and therefore properly conserving food.

The appliance must be made suitably level by adjusting one or more of the adjustable feed
under the cabinet (see the "Levelling the appliance" section).

If your appliance is fitted with casters, then remember that they should only be used for short
movements. Do not move the appliance over long distances on its casters.
