Avoid placing your freezer near a heat source, for example, stove, boiler or radiator. So, avoid direct sunlight
over-buildings or deckchairs. Make sure that the freezer is not placed near humidity (tumble dryer for example)
otherwise condensation will occur on the cabinet. Never place the freezer in a wall or built into built-in cabinets
or furniture. When your freezer is running, the rack at the back may become hot and the sides hot. Therefore,
it must be installed leaving at least 10 cm of free space at the back, 30 cm above and 10 cm on the sides.
Leveling the fridge
If the freezer is not level, the door seal and magnetic alignment will be
affected. Once the freezer is placed in its final location, adjust the front
adjustable feet by turning them. Make sure the foot touches the ground before
use. Look down from the top, loosen clockwise and counterclockwise tighten.
Cleaning before first use
Wipe the inside of the appliance with soapy water. Then rinse with lukewarm water using a sponge or cloth.
Wash drawers and flaps in warm soapy water and dry them completely before replacing them in the appliance.
Clean the exterior of the device with a damp cloth.

Before plugging in your device

as it is in operation and used under normal conditions of use. The temperature inside the appliance can be
influenced by many factors: ambient temperature, exposure to sunlight, number of door openings and amount
of food stored... Slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal.
