Ventilation
Fig. 1/23
This area needs to be well ventilated.
Otherwise, the refrigeration unit will work
harder. This increases energy consumption.
Therefore: Never cover or block the ventilation
opening!

Installing the appliance

Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated
room. The installation location should neither
be exposed to direct sunlight nor near a heat
source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc.
If installation next to a heat source is
unavoidable, use a suitable insulating plate
or observe the following minimum distances
to a heat source:
3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.

Connecting the
appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least
1 hour until the appliance starts up.
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 to 16 A fuse.
For appliances operated in non-European
countries, check whether the stated voltage
and current type on the rating plate match 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).
