Before using for the first time
∙ Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials
completely, including the adhesive strips.
∙ Before it is connected to the mains, the unit must be
thoroughly checked for transport damage, including its
power cord.
∙ Clean the unit according to the instructions given in the
De-frosting and cleaning section below.
∙ The unit should only be transported in its vertical
position; do not tilt any more than 30°.
∙ Once the unit has been positioned, wait for about 30
minutes before it is connected to the mains.
∙ If the unit has been tilted more than 30° during transport,
allow it to stand upright for at least 4 hours before it is
connected to the mains.
∙ When the unit is first switched on, a slight smell may be
noticed. However, this will disappear once the cooling

suitable for this appliance.
∙ Do not use the appliance outdoors.
∙ Ensure that the plug is accessible and can be removed
from the wall socket at any time.
∙ Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight, and
do not position it next to any heat sources (radiators,

suitable insulation must be in installed between the heat
source and the unit.
∙ The unit must not be installed inside a cabinet, nor
directly below a hanging cupboard, shelf or similar
