Installation and Setting up
Proper installation of the appliance is essential to
ensure the best and most efficient performance of
your appliance.
Ventilation
The compressor and condenser generate heat and,
therefore, 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
provides the appropriate amount of air recirculation. It is
also important that the room should not be too humid.
During installation, make sure not to cover or obstruct the
grates that allow 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.
Away from Heat
Avoid positioning the appliance in a place where it is
directly exposed to sunlight or near an oven, cook top or
the like.
Levelling
The floor should be perfectly levelled; if not, you can
adjust the feet at the front of the appliance.
Before placing foodstuffs in the refrigerator, clean the
interior well with warm water and baking soda.
After having plugged the appliance in, make sure that
pilot lamp is light.
Set thermostat knob onto a medium position and can
place food in the fridge after only a few hours.
Earthing
Before making the electrical connection, check that the
voltage shown on the data plate, that you will find on the
bottom left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper,
corresponds to that of your mains and that the socket is
earthen in conformity with all current electrical regulations.
If the system is not earthen, the manufacturer declines all
liability for consequent damages or losses. Do not use
adapters or multiple sockets.
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).
Before plugging the appliance to the mains
Set the appliance upright and wait at least 3 hours before
plugging the appliance into the mains to ensure proper
performance.
