Keep a minimum distance between your
refrigerator and other furniture: 3 to 5 cm
on the sides and 10 cm above for good air
circulation around the unit.
Place the appliance at a suitable
distance from the wall using the spacers if
they provided in the accessory bag.
Your appliance has been designed for
optimum performance in a room
temperature. We then say that it is
designed for a special "climate class". This
climate class is clearly stated on the rating
plate located inside your appliance, on the
left
wall
down.
Beyond
these
temperatures, the performance of your
appliance may be reduced.
Classe
Temperature
SN
from + 10°C to + 32°C
N
from + 16°C to + 32°C
ST
from + 16°C to + 38°C
T

Advice:
After installation of your appliance, set its
feet so that it is slightly tilted backwards, it
will facilitate the closing of the door.
Before putting food, clean the interior and
exterior of your appliance with bicarbonate
of soda dissolved in water (1 tablespoon of
bicarbonate for 4 litres of water). Do not
use alcohol, abrasive powders or detergents
which could damage the surfaces. (See
chapter "Cleaning your appliance").
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The electrical installation must comply with
the applicable standards and must be able
to withstand the maximum power indicated
on the rating plate.
The plug must be properly grounded.
We cannot be held responsible for any
incident caused by defective electrical
installation.
Electrical Installation Tips
• Do not use extension cable or adapter or
power strip.
• Never remove the grounding.
• The socket must be easily accessible but
out of reach of children.
In case of doubt, ask to your installer.
Your device is compliant with EU directives
and their modifications.
ENERGY SAVING
To reduce the power consumption of your
appliance:
• Install it in a suitable location (see
"Installing your appliance").
• Keep doors open for as short time as
possible.
• Do not put hot food in your refrigerator or
freezer, particularly if they are soups or
preparations which emit a large amount of
steam.
• Ensure the optimal functioning of your
device by not letting accumulate too much
frost in the freezer (defrost it when the ice
thickness exceeds 5-6 mm) and periodically
cleaning the condenser (see "Maintenance
your device ").
• Regularly check the door seals and make
sure that they always close effectively. If
this is not the case, please contact service
after sales service.
• Do not let it set at too low a temperature.
• Not fulfilling with drawers, bins and
shelves arrangement could lead to
increased energy consumption.
WARNING:
If the unit was shipped to home in a
horizontal position, place it vertically and
wait two hours before plugging it in. A small
amount of oil may have flowed into the
refrigeration circuit, you need to give it time
to flow back towards the motor before
connecting the appliance, otherwise you
may damage it.
Before any maintenance, disconnect the
power plug. Do not pull the power cable but
