Unpacking your appliance
Remove all packaging and tape.
Choosing the right location
Ventilation
As the appliance gives off heat during operation, it should be
installed in a well-ventilated, dry room with plenty of space above
and behind it, as shown in Figure 1.
If you can hear it vibrating, it needs more space.
Temperature
The room temperature affects the refrigerator’s energyefficiency,
i.e. how much electricity it uses to chill and freeze foods.
For the best results, install your refrigerator:
• away from direct sunlight
• away from radiators, cookers or other heat sources
• where the room temperature corresponds to the climate classifica-
tion for which the appliance is designed. Refer to the Specifications
Section for your appliance’s climate classification.
Level
Install on a level floor that’s strong enough to support a fully loaded
refrigerator.
You can adjust the level of the refrigerator by screwing or
unscrewing the two adjustable front legs as shown in Figure 2.
This prevents vibration and noise.
If the appliance is to stand on a carpeted or vinyl floor, put a solid
board underneath it first. This will protect your floor against possible
color change due to heat given off by the appliance.
Refrigerator door
The refrigerator’s door hinges can be swapped over, from the right side to the left, so that the doors open in the
opposite direction. If this is more convenient in your home, please contact our service centre listed on the attached
sheet or access to our Web site (http://panasonic.net).
We could not be held responsible if you replace the hinges by yourself.
Parts for switching door opening direction are included in the unit packaging.
