Transport of the appliance

all loose parts in and on the appliance, in
order to prevent damage.
• The appliance should not be transported in
a vertical position and at the same time not
tilted over more than 30 degrees. Wait 30
minutes after the installation, before you

Before the initial operation

aging material incl. the transport securing
of the storage spaces and of the trays from

you start the appliance for the first time.
It goes away once the appliance begins to
cool.
• Clean the interior with tepid water with the
addition of washing-up liquid. Clean the
equipment separately with rinsing water,
not in the dishwasher.
• Before you fill the appliance with food,
let it work for 1 hour, so that the target
temperature can be reached. When using
the freezer compartment, you have to wait
approx. 3 hours.
Fitting the door handle

the appliance before attaching the door
handle.
• Close the door of the appliance.
• Loosen the screws on the non-hinged side
of the door.

place.

from the power outlet before performing
any work on the appliance.
