Installation Instructions
Unpacking the appliance
Remove the external & internal packaging.
When unpacking the appliance please check for any damage. If damage is found, do not connect to the power source
and contact the Authorised Service Provider. Check that the shelving shown on the appliance details diagram are all
present:
Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 4 hours. This will reduce
the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation. Remove any protective film
from the outer surface.
Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
Installing the Refrigerator
This appliance is designed for fully integrated or built-in installation.
Place your appliance on a solid, level floor that is strong enough to support the appliance when it is fully loaded. Use
the adjustable feet at the bottom of the appliance to compensate for any unevenness of the floor.
Allow at least 5 cm of space around the sides of the appliance, which allows the proper air circulation, and at least
15cm above and behind the unit. Note the door opens to 135°
Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator, etc.). Direct sunlight may
affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures
may also cause the appliance not to perform properly. Avoid locating the appliance in moist areas.
Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be
directed toward a certified electrician or an Authorised Service Centre.
After plugging the appliance into a wall outlet (220-240V 50Hz), allow the unit to cool down for 4 hours before placing
food in the freezer or refrigeration compartments. This appliance is designed to work in ambient temperatures up to
43°C. If moving the appliance, avoid tilting the appliance more than 45°. At no time should the appliance be turned
upside down.
