Before use
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.
Preparations for use
1. Standby time
Once the appliance is properly installed and cleaned, do not switch it on immediately.
You can switch it on after more than 1 hour of standby time to ensure normal operation.
2. Checking and cleaning
Confirm that all accessories inside the appliance are perfectly in place and wipe the inside with a soft
cloth.
3. Switch on
Connect the plug to the power socket to switch on the compressor. After 1 hour, open the freezer door (if
available), if the temperature inside the freezer compartment drops considerably, it indicates that the
refrigeration system is working normally.
4. Food storage
Once the appliance is switched on, the internal temperature will be automatically controlled according to
the user's temperature setting. Once it has cooled down completely, place the food, which usually needs
2 to 3 hours to cool down completely. In summer, when the temperature is high, it takes more than 4
hours for the food to cool down completely (try to open the appliance door as little as possible, thus pre-
venting the internal temperature from rising considerably).
