using the appliance for the first time
3
Before using the appliance for the first time, you should proceed as follows: carefully unpack the appliance and remove
all packaging material and any promotional stickers. Keep the packaging (plastic bags, polystyrene and cardboard) out
of the reach of children. After unpacking the appliance, check it for external damage that may have occurred during
transport. Place the appliance on a sturdy, flat surface and make sure there is enough space all around for sufficient
ventilation. A minimum space of 10 cm is required between the appliance and the surrounding walls. In this way
the appliance is able to release heat properly, cool well and function in an energy efficient way. You can use the adjustable
feet to level the appliance. Do not place the appliance near heat sources such as central heating or a stove. Do take note
of the climate class of the appliance. When placed in a room that is too cold, the refrigerator will not function properly.
After placing the appliance, leave it for at least 3 hours before inserting the plug in the socket.
First clean the interior of the appliance. Use warm soapy water with, for instance, washing-up liquid, all-purpose
cleaner or soda. Wipe the inside of the appliance after cleaning with clean water and properly wipe everything dry.
Leave the appliance to dry for 1 to 2 hours.

to adjust the height. If necessary, take the following steps:
