Installation

Proper installation of the appliance is essential to en-
sure the best and most efficient performance of your
appliance.
Ventilation
The compressor and condenser generate heat and, there-
fore, need to be ventilated properly. Rooms with less than
perfect ventilation are not very suited for installation of the
appliance. Therefore, it should be installed in a room with
an opening (window or French window) that provide the
appropriate amount of air re-circulation. It is also important
that the room not be too humid.
During installation, make sure not to cover or obstruct the
grates that allow for proper ventilation of the appliance.
For proper ventilation of the appliance, you must leave:
- a space of at least 10 cm between the top part and any
cabinets above it;
- a space of at least 5 cm between the sides of the appliance
and any adjacent cabinets/walls.

Earthing
Before making the electrical connection, check that the volt-
age shown on the data plate, that you will find on the bot-
tom left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper, cor-
responds to that of your home and that the socket is earthed
in compliance with all current electrical regulations. If the
system is not earthed, the manufacturer declines all liability
for consequent damages or losses. Do not use adapters or
multiple sockets.
Position the appliance in such a way that you can access
the socket where it is plugged in.
Check the power load
The electrical socket must support the maximum power load
of the appliance shown on the data plate (on the bottom
left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper).
