Installation
!
Before placing your new appliance into operation
please read these operating instructions carefully.
They contain important information for safe use, for
installation and for care of the appliance.
!
Please keep these operating instructions for future
reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of
the appliance.
Positioning and connection
Positioning
1. Place the appliance in a well-ventilated humidity-free
room.
2. Do not obstruct the rear fan grills. The compressor and
condenser give off heat and require good ventilation to
operate correctly and save energy.
3. Leave a space of at least 10 cm between the top part of
the appliance and any furniture above it, and at least 5
cm between the sides and any furniture/side walls.
4. Ensure the appliance is away from any sources of
heat (direct sunlight, electric stove, etc.).
5. In order to maintain the correct distance between
the appliance and the wall behind it, fit the spacers
supplied in the installation kit, following the
instructions provided.
Levelling
1. Install the appliance on a level and rigid floor.
2. If the floor is not perfectly horizontal, adjust the
refrigerator by tightening or loosening the rear feet.
Electrical connections
After the appliance has been transported, carefully
place it vertically and wait at least 3 hours before
connecting it to the electricity mains. Before inserting
the plug into the electrical socket ensure the following:
The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant
with the law.
The socket can withstand the maximum power of
the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate
located inside the freezer (e.g. 150 W).
The voltage is in the range of values indicated on the
data plate located inside the freezer (e.g. 220-240V).
The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance.
If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an
authorised technician to replace it (
see Assistance
). Do
not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
!
Once the appliance has been installed, the power
supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily
accessible.
!
The cable must not be bent or compressed.
!
The cable must be checked regularly and replaced
by authorised technicians only (see Assistance).
!
The manufacturer declines any liability should
these safety measures not be observed.
