Moving the appliance
•
Transport
Do not carry the appliance horizontally or upside down. Do not carry the
appliance while holding the door or handle.
The appliance must be transported by lifting the bottom of the appliance.
IMPORTANT: The installation of this unit requires the intervention
of several people.
•
Location
Do not place your appliance near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator.
Avoid direct sunlight.
•
Leveling
Be sure to level your appliance using the front leveling feet.
If it is not level, the sealing performance of the appliance door gasket
will be affected, or it may even cause your appliance to malfunction.
After placing the appliance in position, wait 4 hours before using it, to
allow the refrigerant to settle.

Installation
Do not cover or block vents.
If you are going to be away from home for a long period of time:
- If the appliance will not be used for several months, turn it off first and then unplug the appliance from
the electrical outlet.
- Remove all food.
- Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent mould and mildew growth and unpleasant odours,
leave the door ajar: lock it or remove it if necessary.
- Keep the clean appliance in a dry, ventilated place away from heat sources and do not place heavy
objects on top of it.
