refrigerator has undergone the necessary tests on the tightness of the refrigeration circuit and
complies with the safety regulations for electrical appliances.
Warming:
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for injury or damage
caused by failure to comply with the above regulations or deriving from
tampering with even just one part of the appliance and the use of non-
original spare parts.
Installation and connection
Choosing the site
•
Always place the refrigerator in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to
direct sunlight or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class (stated on the
nameplate inside the refrigerator compartment), the appliance can be used in different
temperature conditions:
Class
Ambient temperature
SN (Subnormal)
from + 10 °C to +32 °C
N (Normal)
from + 16 °C to + 32 °C
ST (Subtropical)
from + 18 °C to + 38 °C
T (Tropical)
from + 18 °C to + 43 °C
•
Never place the refrigerator close to heat sources. If this is unavoidable, a suitable
insulating panel must be used to allow the appliance to function properly. Otherwise, place
the appliance at least 3 cm from electric or gas cookers and at least 30 cm from
combustion or radiation heating systems.
•
To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the refrigerator must not be placed too close to
the wall. If the refrigerator is installed underneath a wall cupboard, the distance between
the two must be at least 5cm.
•
Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the appliance on parquet or
linoleum. If necessary, when positioning slide the refrigerator over pieces of wood or a mat
to the point decided for connection to the electrical mains.
Positioning and levelling the appliance
Place the fridge on a stable and level floor. In case the floor is not perfectly level, use the two
adjustable feet on the front part of the fridge. To ensure major stability, easier movement and
a correct positioning of the product, two additional wheels are present at the rear. In any case
we recommend moving the fridge very carefully in order to avoid floor damage (especially in
case of wooden floor).
Electrical connection
Before switching the refrigerator on for the first time, leave it vertical for at least two hours.
Then connect the appliance's power supply lead to a mains socket with earth contact, installed
