Unpacking
ENVIRONMENT
Most of the packing materials are
recyclable. Please dispose of those
materials through your local recycling
depot or by placing them in
appropriate collection containers.
Important – check for any damages or
marks. If you find the refrigerator is damaged
or marked, you must report it within 7 days
should you wish to claim for damage/marks
under the manufacturers warranty. This does
not affect your statutory rights.
Clean your refrigerator thoroughly following
the instructions in the "Cleaning" section
and wipe off any dust that has accumulated
during shipping.

Automatic aerosol systems (such as
insect control) should not be located
adjacent to the product as the spray

external plastics of the appliance.
Do not put the refrigerator in a location that
is too cold or is unprotected, for example in
a garage or on a veranda. The ambient
temperature should be above 10°C.
