Installation and connection
Choosing the site
•
Always place the freezer in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to direct
sunlight or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class, the appliance can be used in
different temperature conditions:
•
Never place the freezer close to heat sources. If this is unavoidable, a suitable insulating
panel must be used to allow the appliance to function properly. Otherwise, place the
appliance at least 3 cm from electric or gas cookers and at least 30 cm from combustion or
radiation heating systems.
•
To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the freezer must not be placed too close to the
wall. If the refrigerator is installed underneath a wall cupboard, the distance between the
two must be at least 10 cm.
•
Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the appliance on parquet or
linoleum. If necessary, when positioning slide the refrigerator over pieces of wood or a mat
to the point decided for connection to the electrical mains.
Transport and Handling
When transportation, hold the base and lift the refrigerator carefully with an angle inferior at 45
degrees. Never hold the door handle as support. Never place it upside down nor horizontally.
Push refrigerator on its basis and place it thanks to its roller feet.
Positioning and levelling the appliance
To fix stably, the appliance must be placed on a flat and solid surface. It should not be laid on
any soft material. Choose a well-ventilated place. A space of at least 5cm must be left at the
sides and 10cm at the back of the refrigerator. Choose a location where there is no heat source.
Keep the refrigerator away from direct sunlight or other appliance producing heat. Choose a dry
and well-ventilated place where there is no corrosive air.
Electrical connection
Before switching the freezer on for the first time, leave it vertical for at least two hours. Then
connect the appliance's power supply plug to a mains socket with earth contact, installed in
accordance with electrical safety regulations. The rated voltage and frequency are stated on the
nameplate on back of the freezer. The appliance must be connected to the electrical mains and
earthed in compliance with the relevant regulations and requirements. The appliance is able to
withstand short fluctuations in voltage of no more than 15% less or 10% more than the rated
voltage stated on the nameplate. If the power supply lead has to be replaced, this operation
must only be carried out by a qualified technician. The socket must be accessible after the
appliance has been placed.
