TRANSPORTING AND MOVING THE
APPLIANCE

Transporting and moving the appliance

• Keep the packaging and the original packing for
future transport (optional).
• Close the fridge, keeping it in position, with
straps or cords, and then follow the instructions
for transport given on the packaging.

INSTALLATION

For freestanding appliances
(not recessed)
• Fit the spacers (if supplied) on the back of the
condenser located behind the appliance (see
figure); alternatively, leave a gap of at least 5 cm
between the back of the appliance and the wall.
• To optimize appliance efficiency, leave a 5 cm
gap above the appliance and make sure that
adjacent kitchen units are sufficiently distanced
to allow air circulation.
• Ensure that the appliance is level, using the
front adjustment feet if necessary.
• Regulations require that the appliance is ear-
thed. The manufacturer declines all liability for
injury to persons or animals and for damage to
property resulting from failure to observe the
above procedures and reminders.
• If the plug and socket are not of the same type,
have the socket replaced by a qualified electri-
cian.
Do not use extension leads or adapters.
Disconnecting the appliance
It must be possible to disconnect the appliance by
unplugging it or by means of a double-pole switch
isolating the socket.
• Remove the removable parts (shelves, accesso-
ries, vegetable drawers, etc.) or fix them in the
fridge to prevent knocks. To this end, use straps
when re-positioning and transporting.
Put the refrigerator in an upright position.
