SETTING UP AND INSTALLATION
Where to place the freezer
For safety reasons the freezer must not be installed outdoors; it
must be placed in a dry room. Never place the appliance close to
sources of heat such as cookers or radiators, and avoid placing it in
direct sunlight. The surface on which the appliance is placed must
be level and sturdy. The small wheels mounted at the rear of the
freezer make it easy to place it in the required position.
The freezer can be set up free-standing against a wall or built into a
kitchen cabinet.
It is important that the appliance stands completely level and that
there is good air circulation over, under and around it. The
freezer can be adjusted by turning the two adjusting screws on the
plinth. After adjustment, the feet and the two rear wheels must be
in contact with the surface on which the appliance stands. It is
extremely important that the freezer’s adjustable feet are set
correctly to avoid movement or future distortion of the cabinet (2
optional rear feet are supplied in the parts kit).
It is also advantageous, but not necessary, that the freezer is tilted
slightly towards the rear to allow the door to close on it’s own.
The illustrations on the following pages (8 & 9), show how to
create sufficient air circulation around the cabinet. The dimensions
give the actual size of openings. The circulation area must be at
least 200 cm².
