2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the external packaging, remove the protective plastic film from the surface of the appliance
and clean the external parts of the appliance with a cleaner designed for this purpose. Do not use steel
wool or any coarse agents, which could irreparably damage the surface of the appliance.
IMPORTANT
This unit can be installed as either built‐in or free‐standing unit. For built‐in installation, certain
clearances are necessary for optimal operation. In this case, allow 3/16" on both sides, 2" at the rear
and 1/16" at the top to ensure proper ventilation. Take care that the air vent at the front of the
appliance is never covered or blocked in any way.
BEFORE INSTALLATING OF YOUR APPLIANCE
The placement of the appliance must meet the requirements in the section operating conditions
and must include a stable floor with a load‐bearing capacity corresponding to the weight of the
appliance.
Level the appliance using the adjustable feet. Ensure there is a gap between the bottom edge of
the appliance and the ground, so that there is sufficient circulation of air. This will ensure the
optimal performance of the cooling system.
Use the appliance only for the purposes for which it has been designed.
The appliance must be located on a rigid and even surface. In this way you will ensure free
circulation of the coolant and effective operation of your appliance.
Place the appliance in a cool, well ventilated and dry room.
Do not locate the appliance in direct sunlight or in a room with a high ambient temperature, or
in the vicinity of any sources of direct heat, such as a radiator or oven. This would cause the
compressor to work harder, resulting in a substantially higher power consumption level.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
A 115 Volt / 60 Hz grounded electrical supply equipped with a 15 or 20 amp fuse or circuit breaker is
required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your appliance be provided. Use outlets
that cannot be turned off by a switch or pull chain. Connect this appliance to a 3‐prong power supply
outlet that has a ground terminal. If you only have a 2‐prong outlet, have it replaced by a qualified
technician with an outlet that meets the local codes. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Required
nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the rating plate. The connection to the power supply
and grounding has to be made according to current local standards and regulations.
