8. When you have the appliance in its fi nal position, it
needs to be stabilised. Wind the stability foot down to
the fl oor until it just makes contact with the fl oor. Lift
the front of the appliance to take the weight off the
stability foot, then turn it ¼ turn further to ensure fi rm
contact with the fl oor. Whenever you need to move the
appliance, be sure to wind the foot back up so that the
appliance can roll freely and be sure to reset it when
reinstalling.

instructions in the "Care and maintenance" section of
this manual and wipe off any dust that has accumulated

and never use a double adapter. If you need to roll the
refrigerator to get to the plug, remember to raise the
stability foot fi rst.
11. Before you put any food in your refrigerator, it's
recommended you leave it on for 2 or 3 hours to check
it is running properly.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed your new
refrigerator.
Initial start-up
Refrigerators work by transferring heat from the food inside
to the outside air. This operation makes the back and sides
of the refrigerator (particularly at start-up) feel warm
– which is normal.
A cooling coil is located behind the rear wall of the freezer
section. This coil cools and removes moisture from
the air inside.
Avoid placing food against the air vents in the refrigerator,
as it affects the effi cient circulation. If the door is opened
frequently, a light frosting will occasionally occur on the
freezer's interior. This is normal and will clear after a few
days. If the freezer door is accidentally kept open, a heavy
frost will coat the inside walls and should be removed.
Your new refrigerator uses a high-speed compressor,
along with other energy-effi cient components, which may
make unusual sounds. These sounds simply indicate your
refrigerator is working how it should. They include:
• Compressor running noises;
• Air movement noise from the small fan motor;
• A gurgling sound, similar to water boiling;
• A popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting
¼ turn
Further details can be found in "Troubleshooting".
• Don't place food forward of the ribs on the freezer fl oor,
as it will keep the door open.
