Cleaning before use
Check that you have removed from the appliance all adhesive tape used to hold accessories . Then clean all the
inside parts using lukewarm water with a neutral cleaning agent, vinegar or sodium carbonate – in this way
you will remove the characteristic odour of new parts – then dry carefully. Do not use detergents or aggressive
agents, which could damage the surfaces.
Electrical connection
Before connecting the power plug to the power socket, check that:

Your hands are completely dry.

The voltage and frequency shown on the rating label of the appliance corresponds to that in the home
power grid (permitted tolerance from -6% to +6% for nominal voltage, for use with diff erent voltages, use
a voltage changer with the corresponding parameters).

The cord and the plug are not damaged or caught under heavy objects.

The power cord is not excessively tensioned, it is not permitted to use an extension cord.
Do not connect the appliance to a voltage rectifi er (e.g. solar power plant) or use an extension cord.
The appliance must be connected to a working grounding lead. If the power socket of the home
system is not grounded in accordance with the current legal regulations, connect the appliance
after consulting a specialised technician to the grounding lead itself. The manufacturer takes no
responsibility for injuries caused as a result of not following these instructions.
If you do not correctly level the freezer during the installation, the doors may not close shut and seal
properly, which may cause problems with the cooling, ice build up or moisture. Levelling the freezer is
very important.
Level the freezer using the adjustable feet – turn them clockwise to lift the freezer and turn them anticlockwise
to lower the freezer.
Procedure for switching the door opening direction
The appliance is supplied with the door opening to the right. It is possible to switch the door opening direction
on this model.
We recommend that a qualifi ed technician or another trained person switches the door opening direction for
you.
If you will be laying it on its back for the purpose of better access to the underside of the appliance,
it is necessary to fi rst place a foam or another soft underlay on the fl oor to prevent damaging the cooling
system on the rear part.
WARNING
Before commencing the procedure for changing the opening direction, ensure that the appliance
is turned off and that the power plug is disconnected from the mains power socket.
