Location
When selecting a location for your appliance you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and the room is
well ventilated. An average ambient temperature must be observed.
This temperature is specific according to the climatic class of the device: N-ST: This refrigerating appliance is
intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 38 °C
Avoid locating your fridge near a heat source, eg, cooker, boiler or radiator. Also, avoid direct sunlight in out-
buildings or sun lounges. If you are placing your fridge in an out-building such as a garage or annex ensure
that the Fridge is placed above the damp course, otherwise condensation will occur on the cabinet. Never
place the fridge in a wall recessed or into fitted cabinets or fumiture when your fridge is working, the grille at
the back may become hot and the sides warm. It must therefore be installed so that the back of the fridge has
at least 9cm of free space and the sides have 2 cm.
Do not drape the fridge with any covering.
Leveling the fridge
If the fridge is not level, the door and magnetic seal alignment will be affected and may cause you Fridge to
work incorrectly. Once the fridge is placed in its final location, adjust the leveling feet at the front by turning
them.
Cleaning before use
Wipe the inside of the fridge with a weak solution of bicarbonate of soda. Then rinse with warm water using a
damp sponge or cloth. Wash the baskets and shelves in warm soapy water and dry completely before
replacing in the fridge.
Before plugging in
Check that you have a socket which is compatible with the plug supplied with the fridge.
DO NOT SWITCH ON UNTIL FOUR HOURS AFTER MOVING THE FRIDGE.
The coolant fluid needs time to settle. If the appliance is switched off at any time, wait 30 minutes before
switching back on to allow the coolant fluid to settle.
Before filling your fridge
Before storing foods in your fridge, turn the fridge on and wait for 4 hours, to make sure it is working properly
and to allow the fridge to fail to the correct temperature.
Reverse the door
The side to which the refrigerator door opens can be altered on the right side to the left, if the place of
installation so requires.
1. Remove the screws (6) securing the top cover (7) and rmeove it.
2. Remove the two screws (1) securing the right upper hinge (5) to the structure and remove.
