∙ For positioning, we recommend that you tilt the unit slightly
backwards. In this way, the transport rollers can be used to
move it to its intended place of installation.
∙ Before it is connected to the mains, the unit must be
thoroughly checked for transport damage, including its
power cord.
∙ Clean the unit according to the instructions given in the De-
frosting and cleaning section.
∙ 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 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 %.
∙ Do not use the appliance outdoors.
∙ The product data sheet at the end of this manual contains
details of the ambient temperature range suitable for this
appliance.
∙ 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).
∙ 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.

air circulation round and behind it is not obstructed. (Rear and

hinged (default installation) to become left-hinged.
