∙ If the unit has been tilted more than 30° during transport,
allow it to stand upright for at least 4 hours before it is

may be noticed. However, this will disappear once the
cooling process has begun.
Installation
∙ The appliance should be set up in a well-ventilated, dry
room.
∙ It should be operated in conditions where the relative
humidity is no more than 60 %.
∙ The product data sheet contains details of the ambient
temperature range suitable for this appliance.
∙ Do not use the appliance outdoors.
∙ Ensure that the plug is accessible and can be removed from
the wall socket at any time.
∙ Do not expose the appliance to direct sunlight, and do not
position it next to any heat sources (radiators, cookers
etc). If this cannot be avoided, however, suitable insulation
must be in installed between the heat source and the unit.
∙ The unit must not be installed inside a cabinet, nor directly
below a hanging cupboard, shelf or similar object.

Ventilation
The heated air
around the rear of
the unit must be able
to circulate freely.
Therefore, ensure that
the air circulation is
not obstructed.
Temperature control
∙ The unit is activated by connecting it to the mains. It is
only switched off completely when the plug is removed
from the wall socket.
∙ The green mains indicator light shows that the unit is
connected to the mains.
∙ The temperature in the refrigerator cabinet can be
adjusted by setting the temperature control (0-5).
Turning the control clockwise will decrease the
temperature, while turning it anti-clockwise will increase
it.
∙ The temperature can be set within a 0 to 10°C range.
∙ The temperature in the cabinet largely depends on
factors such as the ambient temperature, the setting and
the number of bottles stored.
∙ We recommend using a thermometer to check the actual
temperature inside the cabinet and make adjustments
as necessary.
∙ Always ensure that the door is properly closed and that
the seal is not obstructed by bottles stored inside the
cabinet.
∙ Following a power interruption, or if the unit has been
switched off on purpose, it may take 3 to 5 minutes
before it switches on again.
∙ Note: With the temperature control in position '0',
only the compressor is switched off, while the fan is
still running.
Interior lighting
∙ The interior light can be switched on by means of the
separate On/Off switch.
∙ Caution: Do not remove the cover of the interior LED
light. If there should be any malfunction, please contact
the customer service for assistance.
Reversible door
The design provides for the door to be reversed, i.e. for
right-hinged (default installation) to become left-hinged.
Warning: Always disconnect the unit from the mains
before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
