INSTALLATION
i
nstAllAtion loCAtion
•
Stand the refrigerator-freezer on a flat, even surface. As your appliance will be heavy when
filled with food, it must be stood on a strong, solid floor.
•
The appliance must be installed in a dry, well-ventilated room at ambient temperature. Be
sure to leave a space of at least 10cm around the appliance.
•
Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight.
•
Do not expose the appliance to rain.
•
Do not install the appliance next to radiators, cookers or other heat sources.
•
The ambient temperature affects energy consumption and appliance efficiency.
•
The mains outlet must remain accessible when the appliance is installed.
•
After installation, make sure that the appliance does not rest on its power supply cable.
•
Before plugging the appliance into the mains for the first time, allow 2 hours for it
to settle if it has been transported in the upright position, or 24 hours if it has been
transported horizontally; this is to allow the refrigerant gas to flow back into the
compressor. Failure to do so could damage the compressor.
•
This refrigeration appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.
