During transportation the oil in the
compressor may have flowed into the
refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for
the first time, clean the interior of the
appliance (see chapter Cleaning).
The socket should be freely accessible.
Connect the appliance only to
220–240 V/50 Hz alternating current via
a correctly installed earthed socket.
The socket must be fused with a 10 A
to 16 A fuse.
If the appliance is to be operated in
a non-European country, check on
the rating plate whether the indicated
voltage and current type correspond
to the values of your mains supply.
The rating plate is situated in the bottom
left-hand side of the appliance.
The power cord may be replaced by
a technician only.
Warning
!
Never connect the appliance to electronic
energy saver plugs or to power inverters
which convert the direct current to 230 V
alternating current (e.g. solar equipment,
power supplies on ships).
