appliance.
Setting up.
• Avoid placing the appliance in direct sunlight, close to heaters, radiators
or other heat sources (Fig. 2).
• The appliance should be placed horizontally and level with a distance of
min. 50 mm (2") to the nearest walls or obstacles. To the right-hand
side the distance should be min. 100 mm (4"), to ensure sufficient
ventilation of the compressor. Underneath the appliance there should
be a gap of 15 mm approx. (½"). On a soft surface, e.g. carpet, it may
be necessary to ensure the correct distance by means of spacers (Fig.
1).
• The type of refrigerant could be a flammable gas, R600a (Isobutane). If
your appliance is charged with this gas, please observe that the volume
of the room where the appliance is to be placed should be at least 1
m³/8 g of refrigerant (1. cu.yd./0.2 oz). Please check on the type plate
on the rear of the appliance, whether your appliance is charged with
R600a (Fig. 3).
Connection to the mains.
• For safety reasons the appliance must be earthed. If you are in any
doubt, please contact an authorized electrician.
• The appliance should be left for ½ to 1 hour before it is connected to
the mains. If the appliance is connected before that, there is a risk of
damaging the compressor.
• If for any reason the appliance is disconnected from the mains, please
wait 10 minutes before re-connecting. The electronic starting device
needs this time to cool down, before a safe re-start can be made.
Before use.
• Before use, the interior of the appliance should be cleaned with a mild
soap solution, and wiped off with a dry clean cloth.
• Prior to filling the appliance with products, it is advisable to let the
appliance operate for approx. 6h. This ensures a sufficiently low
temperature. The temperature should be -18º C (0º F) or lower.
• The temperature inside the appliance can be adjusted by turning the
knob in the panel (Fig. 4). Turning the knob clockwise will lower the
temperature, and turning the knob anticlockwise will raise the
temperature in the appliance. Changes to the ambient conditions and
