Before using for the fi rst time
∙ Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials
completely, including the adhesive strips.
∙ Before it is connected to the mains, the unit must be
thoroughly checked for transport damage, including its
power cord.
∙ Clean the unit as described in the section De-frosting and
cleaning.
∙ Once the unit has been positioned, wait for about 30
minutes before it is connected to the mains.
∙ If the unit has been tilted more than 30° during transport,
allow it to stand upright for at least 4 hours before it is
connected to the mains.
∙ When the unit is fi rst switched on, a slight 'new' smell
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 70 %.
∙ 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.
∙ Ensure that the door can swing open to an angle of 160°.
∙ In the case of uneven fl oors, the adjustable feet on the
unit can be used to compensate and ensure optimum
stability.

Ensure that there is enough space around the unit so that
the air circulation round and behind it is not obstructed.

any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
1. Remove the two screws at the rear, and then the entire
top panel. Caution: The metal plate edges on the rear
corners are very sharp.
2. Remove the four threaded bolts on the top and then
take off the hinge plate.
3. Carefully lift up the door and place it on a suitable
surface to protect it from scratches.
