Before using for the fi rst time
∙ Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials
completely, including the transport securing devices.
∙ The packaging materials must be properly disposed of.
∙ NOTE: When the door to the freezer unit is opened, a
small red component will fall out; this is for transport only
and can be disposed of.
∙ Fit the two spacer elements (1, provided) into the
corresponding guide slots (2) on the rear.
∙ 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.
∙ 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 %.
∙ Refrigeration appliances are classifi ed into certain
climate classes. This classifi cation indicates the ambient
temperature at which the device can be operated.
Please refer to the product data sheet for information
on the classifi cation for this unit; the data sheet can be
found at the end of this manual.
∙ 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.
∙ In the case of uneven fl oors, the adjustable front feet
on the unit can be used to compensate and ensure
optimum stability.
Set-up dimensions
If the cabinet freezer is installed with its side against
a wall, ensure a minimum clearance of 60 mm with the
wall; this is to ensure that the freezer door can open
suffi ciently wide to slide out the drawers.
Temperature control
∙ The unit is re-activated by connecting it to the mains. It
is only switched off completely when the plug is removed
from the wall socket. In position '0', the cooling function
is switched off, though the appliance is still connected
to the mains.
∙ The temperature in the refrigerator cabinet can be
adjusted by setting the temperature control. Turning the
control clockwise will decrease the temperature, while
turning it anti-clockwise will increase it.
∙ The medium settings are usually most suitable for home
use.
∙ We recommend using a thermometer to check the actual
temperature inside the cabinet and make adjustments
as necessary.
∙ Following a power interruption, or if the unit has been
switched off on purpose, it may take around 5 minutes
before it switches on again.
