INSTALLING
• The appliance should be installed in a dry, well-ventilated room.
• Avoid balconies, verandas, and patios, the excessive heat in
summer and the cold in winter could prevent your appliance from
functioning properly, or may even damage it.
• Do not place your appliance near a heat source such as an
oven or radiator.
• Your appliance has been designed for optimum functioning at a
certain ambient temperature; it is designed for a particular cli-
mate class. This climate class is clearly indicated on the identifi-
cation plate situated on the inside of your appliance, low down
on the left wall. Outside of this temperature range, the perfor-
mance of your appliance may be reduced.
• Leave a minimum distance between your refrigerator and your
other units of 3 to 5cm at the sides and 10cm at the top, to maxi-
mise air circulation around the appliance.
•Position the appliance at a suitable distance from the wall using
the spacers provided in the accessories packet. The spacers
should be mounted on the back of the appliance.

Advise:
Once you have installed your appliance, adjust its feet so
that it is tilting backwards slightly, this helps the door to
close correctly.
Before placing any food in your appliance, clean it inside and
out with a bicarbonate of soda solution (1 dessertspoon of
bicarbonate to 4 litres of water). Do flot use alcohol, scouring
powder or detergents, which could damage the surfaces.
See the section on "Cleaning your Appliance".

Recommendations for the electrical installation of your
appliance:
• Do not use extension leads, adaptors, or socket strips.
• Always make sure your circuit is earthed.
• The socket must always remain accessible, yet be out of the
reach of children.
If you have any doubts, contact your installer.
Your appliance is compliant with European Directives CEE/73/23
(low voltage directive), CEE/89/336 (electromagnetic compatibi-
lity) and CEE/96/57 (energy efficiency) as well as their modifica-
tions.
Attention:
If the appliance has been delivered to your home in a hori-
zontal position, stand it upright and then wait 2 hours before
plugging it in. A small amount of oil may have flowed into
the refrigeration circuit, and you must allow time for this to
flow back towards the motor before connecting the
appliance. Failure to do so may damage the appliance.
Carry out an initial cleaning operation (see the section on
"Installing your appliance") before connecting your
appliance to the electrical supply. Disconnect your
appliance prior to performing any maintenance operation.
Grasp the plug directly, instead of pulling on the power
cable.
