Unpack the appliance and visually check that it is not damaged. Do not connect a
damaged appliance. Inform your retailer or point of sale of any damage. In such a
case, keep the packaging.
• It is recommended that the appliance be allowed to settle for at least 4 hours before
connecting the electrical power supply, so that the compressor fluid feed is correct.
•
Proper air circulation is necessary to avoid overheating. To ensure sufficient
ventilation, observe the installation recommendations provided.

Before connecting the appliance to the electrical socket, leave it in position for 24
hours. This will reduce the possibility of malfunction of the refrigeration circuit due to
transport.
